The most defining feature of the 7.3.0 Exclusive release was the introduction of the Alpha Channel on the mask layer. Prior to this update, masking in Resolume was often a destructive process. Users could black out parts of a video, but creating transparent windows to reveal layers beneath required complex workarounds involving layer blending modes or external pre-rendering. The inclusion of Alpha masking in 7.3.0 changed the workflow entirely. It allowed for true non-destructive compositing, enabling artists to cut holes in footage, create intricate picture-in-picture setups, and texture map specific geometries without affecting the underlying canvas. For the professional user, this meant that Resolume could finally mimic the layer logic of post-production software like After Effects, but in real-time. This feature alone justified the upgrade for many, as it streamlined the visual chain and drastically reduced render times. Multi-monitor support : Run multiple screens and projector

Start & Re-trigger Options: You can now determine exactly when a parameter animation starts or re-triggers relative to a clip's playback.

Q: Can I open a 7.3 project in 7.2?

A: Generally, no. Resolume is not backward compatible. Once you save a project in 7.3 (especially if you use the new DMX charting features), it will likely fail to open or lose data in 7.2.
