Adobe SpeedGrade CS6 / Lumetri Deep Color Engine

Color-correct and design your looks with real-time playback, thanks to the GPU processing of the Lumetri Deep Color Engine. Build up your grades logically as layers of color corrections, masks, and effects, with lookup tables (LUTs) applied. Use as many layers as you need — the Lumetri Deep Color Engine combines all of your adjustments into a single operation for optimal processing efficiency.

Note: For real-time color grading performance, SpeedGrade CS6 requires an Adobe-approved GPU, such as the NVIDIA Quadro 4000, 5000, or 6000 graphics card. For the most up-to-date specifications, view the system requirements.

With the 32-bit floating-point Lumetri Deep Color Engine, you can work with multiple digital cinema camera file formats within the same project — including RAW and HDR content. There's no need to for transcoding. The Lumetri Deep Color Engine does the math as you match your camera color spaces, apply LUTs, and make every shot look its best.

Apply as many primary and secondary color corrections as you need. Combine and refine .Look files, effects, and new grading layers; nothing is "baked in" until you are ready for final rendering.

Revisit your color decisions at any stage of your workflow. The GPU-based Lumetri Deep Color Engine works nondestructively, so you can make as many changes as you need without compromising the integrity of your source material.

Get down to work right away. Designed for today's production pipelines, the Lumetri Deep Color Engine allows you to work natively with digital cinema camera files, including Alexa, RED, Phantom, and Weisscam, as well as standard post-production formats, such as DPX, QuickTime, Targa, TIFF, and OpenEXR.

Step up to the cutting edge of production with real-time RAW support. Load, play, and grade RAW files, the digital negatives recorded from your camera sensor. As in digital still photography, RAW formats give you the greatest latitude as you craft your looks.

Move easily between linear and logarithmic color spaces. The advanced color science of the Lumetri Deep Color Engine in SpeedGrade gives you the flexibility to work with a variety of source material.

Adjust footage to compensate for gamma irregularities and color shifts, including automatic color balance and color calibration for QuickTime output. You can also calibrate color spaces from different cameras automatically using Macbeth color chart test shots.

Store all of your grades, including any combination of
primary and secondary color corrections, filters, masks, and
effects, as SpeedGrade .Look files. You can also modify
predesigned .Look files, to create your own customized
looks.

Whenever you reuse an existing .Look file, the Lumetri Deep
Color Engine kicks in, and all of your color grading settings
appear in SpeedGrade. Adjust them for new shots, scenes,
and projects. Saved .Look files can also be applied in Adobe After Effects® and Adobe Photoshop® software, helping ensure visual consistency across your project.
