Matrix Patch color correction?

Postby wijnand » Fri Jan 03, 2014 12:34 pm

Hi, I have a challenge here to adjust all my content to the LED's i'm currently using. Since the led's appear to have different brightness on their separate colors I need to adjust the color temperature of the output. Now, with the matrixpatch on the output of my project, it seems the data leaves the system after the General opacity slider and before the FX section.
I now use a FX on every graphical layer to correct this, but since I just have the Player STD I use max 2 FX on my layers.. Is there a way to work around this and get a more "global" adjustment?

Hi,

If you are not doing anything fancy with your camera a Render History FX might help you.

1. Create a additional layer (graphics layer)
2. Assign any media (using one of the Stock Assets / Primary Colors works just fine
3. Assign the "Compositing/Render History"-FX
4. Use your desired FX to alter the colors

What should happen is:
The Render History FX will take everything that is behind the graphics layer and put it onto it. Now you can color-correct the layer/everything that is behind it at once.

Best regards
