Target Color: A color control with an eyedropper button that you choose or sample a
single set of Hue/Saturation/Luminance values you want to push all other colors toward.
Compress Hue, Compress Saturation, and Compress Luminance: These sliders let
you individually compress the range of colors you’re adjusting in the image to more and
more closely match the image. At 0, no compression is applied, at 0.500 the original
range of colors in the image have been adjusted to be halfway between their original
values and the values of the Target Color, and at 1.000 the original range of colors has
been set to be identical to the Target Color.
Color Space Transform
Lets you perform the kind of color transforms that LUTs do, but instead of using lookup tables,
this plug-in uses the same math used by Resolve Color Management (RCM) in order to do
extremely clean color transforms without clipping.
Color Space Transform
Exposes four pop-up menus that let you set an Input Colorspace, Input Gamma, Output
Colorspace, and Output Gamma, in order to do controlled transforms from the Input settings to
the Output settings, right within a grade. Resolve Color Management does not have to be
enabled for you to use this filter.
Gamut Mapping
The Color Space Transform plug-in provides Gamut Mapping controls to accommodate
workflows where you need to transform one color space into another that has a dramatically
larger or smaller gamut. These controls are similar to those found in the Color Management
panel of the Project Settings.
Tone Mapping Method lets you enable tone mapping to accommodate workflows where you
need to transform one color space into another with a dramatically larger or smaller dynamic
range by automating an expansion or contraction of image contrast in such a way as to give a
pleasing result with no clipping. There are three options, None, Simple, and
Luminance Mapping.
Choosing None results in no tone mapping at all.
Choosing “Simple“ uses a simple curve to perform this transformation, compressing
or expanding the highlights and/or shadows of the timeline dynamic range to better fit
the output dynamic range. Note that the “Simple” option maps between approximately
5500 nits and 100 nits, so if you’re mapping from an HDR source with more than
5500 nits to an SDR destination there may still be some clipping of the highlights above
5500 nits.
Choosing “Luminance Mapping” lets you use a customized curve operation to
remap the gamma of the image and enables the Max. Input Luminance, Max. Output
Luminance, and Avg. Input Luminance sliders.
The Max. Input (nits) checkbox and slider lets you set the reference maximum
Luminance value (in nits) that you want to remap to the value set by the Max. Output
(nits) checkbox and slider, which governs the maximum luminance level of the Output
color space (in nits). Using these two sliders together, you can set which value from
the Input Gamma is mapped to which value of the Output Gamma.
