Rewiring Controls

Rewiring color channels redirects the information contained in one channel to another, and in some cases, makes adjustments to that information.

The following modes are available from the Rewire list.

Select:	To:
Normal	Return the footage to its original values.
Mono	Create a monochrome (black and white or grayscale) version of the image.
Negative	Create a negative version of the image.
Custom	Redirect information from one color channel to another.

The following rewiring options are available.

Select:	To:
	Use color values for the red channel.
	Replace color values of the red channel with those of the green channel.
	Replace color values of the red channel with those of the blue channel.
	Replace color values of the red channel with the luma of all channels.
	Replace color values of the red channel with its inverse. For example, 1 corresponds to the maximum value of the given color channel. In 8 bits, this value is 255.

Note

The green and blue channels are rewired in the same way as the red channel (described in the previous table).

To rewire a color channel:

Select a rewire mode from the Rewire list.
Select a rewiring option.
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.
