What Are Replica 3 Title Presets for DaVinci Resolve?

Summary

Replica 3 Title Presets for DaVinci Resolve are 81 music-video-inspired title designs that live in the Edit page Effects Library under Titles, or come in through the Media Pool and get filed into a PowerBin, with text and colour edited in the Inspector. Resolve needs its own version of the pack, chosen from the variant list — the $49.99 listing is the Premiere & Photoshop version. Six display fonts are included and installation is drag-and-drop.

What Are Replica 3 Title Presets?

Replica 3 Title Presets is a pack of 81 title presets drawn from music video design, built for directors and editors who want complex, unique title work rather than a Text+ node with a dissolve on it.

The contents:

  • 81 title presets — a system, not a sampler.
  • Six exclusive display fonts — Wasted, Schoolyard, Spazz, Soap, Off-Vibe and Vibe, supplied in OTF and TTF.
  • Fully customisable — text, colours, animations and sizing.
  • 4K and HD — works at either timeline resolution.
  • Drag-and-drop install — no additional plugins required, which matters in Resolve where third-party effects are a common source of project breakage.

Read this before you buy. There is a dedicated DaVinci Resolve version of Replica 3, and it is selected as a separate variant. The $49.99 price, down from $80.00, is the Premiere & Photoshop version — it does not cover Resolve. Final Cut Pro is a third, separate version. Buy the one that matches the application you actually finish in.

How Replica 3 Title Presets Work in DaVinci Resolve

Resolve handles titles through the Effects Library on the Edit page, with Fusion doing the work underneath. Here is the workflow:

  1. Install the six fonts first — Resolve reads system fonts at launch, and Fusion titles will substitute silently if a face is missing. Steps below.
  2. Unzip the pack to a permanent location — a project or media drive that stays mounted, because Resolve references media rather than swallowing it.
  3. Bring the titles in — the simplest route is the Media Pool: on the Edit or Media page, use File > Import > Media, or drag the files straight into the Media Pool from Finder or Explorer. Where the pack supplies drag-and-drop template files for Resolve's own directories, drop them into the matching folder and restart Resolve so the Effects Library rebuilds its list.
  4. Open the Effects Library — on the Edit page, click Effects in the top left toolbar, then look under Titles. Fusion Titles sit in their own group beneath the standard Titles. Preset titles you have installed appear here alongside Resolve's built-ins.
  5. Drag a title to the timeline — drop it on a video track above your footage. Trim the head and tail like a normal clip to set how long it holds.
  6. Edit the text in the Inspector — select the title clip and open the Inspector at the top right. Fusion titles expose their published controls here: text fields, size, colour, position and any animation parameters the build makes available. Do the everyday work here, not in Fusion.
  7. Go to the Fusion page for deeper changes — with the title clip selected, click Fusion at the bottom of the window. The node graph opens and you can select the Text+ node or the underlying nodes directly to change anything the Inspector does not expose.
  8. Set colours from the Text+ controls — in the Text+ Inspector, the Shading tab holds fill colour, outline and shadow on numbered shading elements. Element 1 is the fill; elements 2 and above handle outline, shadow and border.
  9. File the ones you use into a PowerBin — open the Media Pool, and if PowerBins are hidden turn them on from the Media Pool options menu (View > Show PowerBins in older builds). Drag your configured titles into a PowerBin and they are available in every project in the database, not just this one. This is the single biggest time-saver in a Resolve title workflow.
  10. Work at your timeline resolution — the presets cover 4K and HD. Check Project Settings > Master Settings for your timeline resolution, and use the Inspector's size and position controls to fit rather than scaling the whole clip on the Edit page transform, which can soften edges.

To reuse a configured title later, copy the clip and paste it, then retype. To share it across projects, the PowerBin route is cleaner than exporting.

Installing the Six Display Fonts

The six display faces — Wasted, Schoolyard, Spazz, Soap, Off-Vibe and Vibe — ship in OTF and TTF and install at the OS level. Resolve then sees them in every Text and Text+ font menu.

  1. Install one format per face — OTF or TTF, not both.
  2. macOS — double-click and click Install Font in Font Book, or drag to ~/Library/Fonts. Use /Library/Fonts to cover all accounts.
  3. Windows — right-click the selected files and choose Install for all users, which writes to C:\Windows\Fonts.
  4. Linux — Resolve runs on Linux too. Copy the files to ~/.local/share/fonts and run fc-cache -f -v.
  5. Relaunch DaVinci Resolve — then confirm all six appear in a Text+ font list.

Soap is also sold on its own as The Font Soap, and the full MoonBear fonts collection covers the rest of the catalogue.

Tips for Resolve Editors

  • Cache heavy titles — if playback stutters on a complex Fusion title, right-click the clip and set Render Cache Fusion Output to On, or enable Smart cache from the Playback menu.
  • Set your colours after the grade — Resolve's advantage is that the grade and the title live in one application. Build the look on the Color page first, then pick title colours against the finished image. A base grade like the CineFilm Cinematic Film LUT Pack gives you something real to design against.
  • Titles sit above the grade by default — a title clip on an upper track is not graded by nodes applied to the footage below. If you want the title affected by the look, use a compound clip or an adjustment clip spanning both tracks.
  • Use PowerBins for a house style — one PowerBin per client, holding their configured title, means the next job starts already branded.
  • Mind the typography rules — stylised does not mean exempt. This guide to movie title capitalisation and punctuation is a quick read.
