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!.

NoteThe Color tab also contains settings for RGB Gain, as well as Color curve settings. We recommend that you do not change the default settings unless you have prior experience with color management.
