Release Version 95

Version 95 is a relatively small update that is largely focused on bug fixes, an update on plan limits, and some improvements to Automatic multicam.
Automatic multicam now with automated reaction cutaways
The improved Automatic multicam comes with two settings:
  • Automatic -
    which allows Underlord to show multiple speakers at the same time during back-and-forth conversations, and will include reaction cutaways to your other speakers during longer sections of unbroken monologue. This setting also includes a Frequency selector to fine tune these cutaways.
  • Show active speaker only
    - which is the classic automatic multicam setting. It will only focus on the current speaker for each cut. This setting also allows you to add Templates.
The
Automatic
setting allows you to adjust the amount of Cutaways with three options:
  • Occasional
    - Scenes will have a maximum duration of 30 seconds, with a 3 second cutaway for monologues that exceed 30 seconds.
  • Frequent
    - Scenes will have a maximum duration of 10 seconds, with a 3 second cutaway for monologues that exceed 10 seconds.
  • None
    - No reaction cutaways, but will still cut to multi-speaker view when back-and-forth conversation occurs.

We’ve also added a Camera setup tool so you can make sure your Speaker labels are assigned to the correct camera tracks.
Coming soon: the ability to add templates when using the
Automatic
setting.
File upload speed boost on Web
Our engineers introduced some backend changes that will increase the speed of file uploads when using Descript for Web, or the Desktop Preview version of Descript.
Underlord usage limits
Users on Free, Hobbyist, and EDU plans will encounter some new metering and enforced limits on Underlord actions in accordance with our recent pricing updates.
When you use an AI suite feature (i.e. Underlord) you’ll see a counter at the top of the menu showing the number of uses you have remaining. We’ll also flash a warning when you get close to using up your allotment.
Remove Filler Words and Shorten Word Gaps work on a per-composition basis. So once you’re unlocked it with a use, you’ll still be able to access and action the search results in that composition indefinitely.

Note: These limits do not effect users on Legacy plans, or users on Creator plans and above.
