Use the Colour Warper soft effect to colour correct elements directly on the timeline. You can also use the Colour Warper in combination with the Triptych Player for colour matching.

You can apply colour corrections with the Colour Warper tool from the Colour Correction quick menu or the Colour Correction Editor. Access the Colour Warper from the Colour Correction quick menu to make basic colour corrections. Access the Colour Warper from the Colour Correction Editor for more control over the Colour Correction soft effect.

With the soft effect preferences, you can also define which colour correction tool (Colour Corrector or Colour Warper) is applied by default. See Colour Corrector.
