Using CDL Adjustments
Once you’ve imported a CDL (Color Decision List), then the CDL adjustment for each clip is
made available to you via a contextual menu command in the Thumbnail timeline of the
Color page.
Calculating CDL Functions
To turn the SOP values into a primary correction, the following math is used by DaVinci Resolve:
Output = (Input * Slope + Offset)Power
Output refers to the final grade. Input is the value of each pixel within each color channel (on a
scale from 0–1). The detent value for Slope is 1. The detent value for Offset is 0. The detent
value for Power is 1.
