Davinci Resolve 16 - not user friendly

I thought I'd take a look at that program.. Can't even figure out how to import footage from the SD card. Vegas makes it easy with the Device Explorer. Can't see any such thing in Resolve. Can't figure out how to import stereo audio as dual channel mono. You can't even right click on a track and duplicate it. If you drag one event on top of the other to make a cross fade, it erases the other part of the event. And there's so much STUFF on the screen at one time.. How does anyone even use that software?

I just wanted to take a look at it since it's free software.. But I don't think I could get a single project done with that software.

That is why Vegas is so popular. It is very intuitive. Resolve is very powerful but has a learning curve. There are tutorials and the manual.
