Color Tab
 
 
 

WiretapCentral supports most color options available in RED applications, such as RED Alert!.

The Color Tab displays the settings for the clip metadata, as set in the camera. Alter these settings carefully, since overiding some values may produce unexpected results.

Load the RSX look created in RED Alert! by clicking Restore RSX Settings. The RSX file of a clip must reside in the same folder as the R3D file of that clip; this is the default behavior in RED Alert!.

Load the RMD look created in REDCine-X by clicking Restore RMD Settings. The RMD file of a clip must reside in the same folder as the R3D file of that clip; this is the default behavior in REDCine-X.

NoteWe recommend that you do not edit the Lift, Gamma, Gain, and Luma-RGB default settings unless you have prior experience with color management.
Color Science
Enables you to select whether to use the Color Science settings from version 2.x of the RED codec, or the settings from version 3.x of the codec. Select the correct codec, depending on the version of the camera firmware used when shooting the footage.
Gamma Curve
Displays the value of the output gamma curve that is applied to the clips.
Color Space
Displays the value of the native color space of the images, as set in the camera.
ISO
Displays the value of the linear gain operation. Red images are always shot at 320 ISO.
Kelvin
Displays the perceived color temperature of the image.
Exposure
Displays the exposure increments, which are equivalent to f-stops.
DRX
Displays the setting for Dynamix Range Extension, which sets how much pixel data is copied from non-saturated channels into saturated channels.
Legacy Gain Controls
Gain controls to be used with clips processed with the pre-Codec 3.x colour science.
Lift/Gamma/Gain
Use the RGB controls to edit the lift, gamma, and gain of the clip.
Shadow
Set the Shadow value of the RED clip.
FLUT
Set the FLUT value of the RED clip. As FLUT units are in stops, a +1 FLUT value is the same as doubling the ISO.
Luma and RGB Curves
Set the Luma and RGB look of the RED clip.
