SOFTWARE TOOLS
RED DIGITAL CINEMA provides a variety of software tools to aid postproduction. For proper color
rendition using a Macintosh OSX computer, your monitor should be set to Adobe 1998, or to SMPTE-C
display profile. If you use the HD Cinema display profile, adjust the gamma to 2.2.
REDCINE-X®
REDCINE-X is available for Intel based Mac OSX and Windows XP platforms. In addition to performing
white balance and one light color correction, REDCINE-X provides image pan/scan, crop and scaling
operations. The application can export either a single clip, or a sequence of clips, as 4K or 2K resolution
10-bit DPX or 16-bit TIFF files. REDCINE-X can also render clips into standalone QuickTime movies
using specific HD video codecs. As RED EPIC shoots progressive scan images, all QuickTime movies
created by REDCINE-X are also progressive scan.
REDCINE-X is available for download at http://www.RED.com/support. Included with the download is
the REDCINE-X Operation Guide to assist with understanding the tools available in REDCINE-X.
