Upscale Workspace

← Mask · Workspaces · Next: Global Timeline →
The Upscale workspace increases the resolution of existing renders. AI video models often render at lower resolution than the final delivery target (especially for 4K work); Upscale closes that gap. Upscale workspace.

Source selector

Pick any video or render in the shot. To upscale a specific render in one step:
  1. From the Render Video tab, click Edit this Render on the track to upscale.
  2. Switch to the Upscale tab.
  3. Pick an upscale model.
  4. Click Generate full clip.

Creative Upscaler — the key setting

The most important Creative Upscaler setting is Detail enhancement (0.1–0.9, default 0.4):
  • 0.3 — light reconstruction. Small detail boost without disturbing the original much.
  • 0.5–0.6 — moderate. Adds visible detail.
  • 0.7–0.9 — heavy reconstruction. For restoring damaged, blurry, or low-res input. Output deviates noticeably from the source.

When to upscale

Upscaling is usually a final pass:
  1. Validate the look in Modify Frame.
  2. Render at 1280 with Mago Transform or Style Transfer.
  3. Click Edit this Render on the final track.
  4. Switch to Upscale → Upscaler ×2 for 2560 output, or Creative Upscaler if reconstruction is desired.
⚠️ Warning — Upscaling lower-quality input directly is wasteful. Fix the look first, then upscale.
