Drag and Drop Effects. Adjustment Clips. Add wayyy more trendy animations (like capcut) Copy/Paste/Save/Recall Custom Animations. X/Y box for in/out point for easier motion.

It was so much easier to see the scenes and navigate them when they were big and in the sidebar. Now I have to hunt for them. Can you reinstate the sidebar as an option?

Descript should provide the option to export the current frame of a video as a PNG and other image formats.

It would be amazing if, in multitrack, Descript could notice when two people are talking at once and separate their speech out, ideally into some kind of logical order.

There a lot of other languages that I would like to translate my videos to. However, the current platform is restricted to a handful of languages. Of course, it is not very feasible for the engineering team to cover all languages very well, so maybe if it would be possible to add integration with other AI models/services to solve this issues?

Apply your own LUTs to visuals in Descript.

You missed the mark on this feature! I don't have any compelling business reason to upgrade to business plan. I have 2 users and we use Descript regularly - and fall well within all the usage limits. It's great and I love it. A big pain point is the difficult of customizing layout packs with brand colors - and the only way to get it is via the Business plan - which has nothing else that I need. I'm tempted to upgrade and then downgrade just to build a Branded layout packs - but that doesn't serve any of us. Just saying that I think you missed the mark when you launched Brand Kits but didn't include you core group of subscribers (Creators)

I love the Descript Rooms. The interface is clean, there are no distractions. Much akin to Zoom in that respect. However, when my podcast participants leave the room the recording shuts off. That is a huge problem. Can this be fixed so it is more akin to the way RiversideFM works. I would much rather use Descript Rooms than Riverside.

How can I transcribe a PDF file into a podcast

The Script Editing Basics tutorial suggests that this should happen automatically (i.e., when I edit "cotton tent" to "continent" in one place in the tutorial transcript, it makes that correction throughout), but my actual experience doesn't reflect this (I have to change "drafted digital" to "Draft2Digital" repeatedly.)
