Color Controls ❚❘❘ Color Controls The Color controls contain some of the most fundamental color correction tools. Rewire Controls Rewiring color channels redirects the information contained in one channel to another, and in some cases, makes adjustments to that information. To custom rewire: 1. Select Custom from the Rewire list. 2. Click a button under Custom and select a rewiring option from the list. You can redirect the information from one channel into any of the other channels. You can also direct a pixel's luma value into a component, or make a negative of a channel's information. To rewire color channels: Select a mode from the Rewire list. Color Wheel The color wheel acts as a reference and monitoring guide or template. You can see how the colors 180 degrees apart are complements, and how the RGB and CMY points are distributed around the wheel. The following options are available. Normal-Returns the clip to its original values. Mono-Creates a monochrome (black and white or grayscale) version of the clip. Negate-Creates a negative version of the clip. Custom-Custom redirects information from one color channel to another. Because RGB is an additive color model, magenta, cyan, and yellow are expressed as combinations of two other colors. The default display of the color wheel is the following: • Red is at 3 o'clock. • Blue is at 7 o'clock. • Green is at 11 o'clock. • Magenta (red plus blue) is at 5 o'clock. • Cyan (green plus blue) is at 9 o'clock.
