an image.
Gamma
Adjusts midtones without affecting black and white levels.
Pedestal
Adjusts an image by adding a fixed offset to the image’s pixel values. Use in
conjunction with the Gain control.
Gain
Adjusts brightness values by multiplication so that lighter pixels are affected more
than darker pixels.
Curves
Allows you to adjust the red, green, and blue channels by adding control points to
adjust curves on a graphical display. Click to add points; select and click Delete to remove
points. Drag a point to adjust the curve. Each curve can have a maximum of 16 control
points.
Enable Limiter
Enables the video limiter. Disable the video limiter to view your image
without video limiting.
Luma Max
Specifies the absolute limit for luminance values, in IRE units. The limit is
applied after a soft clipping is applied, which reduces the amount of luminance that
requires limiting.
Chroma Min, Chroma Max
Specifies the maximum and minimum composite video
levels in IRE units. Out-of-limit colors are adjusted by limiting to meet the maximum and
minimum. Colors that are likely to run into the maximum value are cyan and yellow. The
defaults are 120 IRE for the maximum and –30 for the minimum.
Note: Some broadcasters prefer a limit of –20 IRE.
Video System
Specifies the video system as PAL or NTSC.

Method
Provides options for adjusting out-of-limit colors. Reduce Saturation tends to
wash out colors that are limited. Reduce Luma preserves colors but can make them
muddy if overly corrected. Smart Limit limits colors while best preserving their
appearance.
Color Emboss
The Color Emboss effect sharpens the edges of objects in the image but doesn’t suppress
any of the image’s original colors.
Direction
Specifies the apparent direction in which the highlight source is shining, in
degrees. A setting of 45° causes the shadow to be cast in the northeast direction.
Relief
Specifies the apparent height of the embossing, in pixels. The Relief setting
actually controls the maximum width of highlighted edges.
Contrast
Specifies the sharpness of the image content’s edges. At lower settings, only
distinct edges show the effect. As you increase the setting, the highlight becomes more
extreme.
Blend with Original
Adds a percentage of the original source clip to the final result.
Color Match
The Color Match effect allows you to match the colors from one source clip to another by
adjusting hue, saturation, and luminance.
Method
Specifies the method by which colors are adjusted including HSL, RGB, or
Curves.
Use Sample eyedroppers to sample shadows, midtones, and highlights from the sample or
color you are trying to match. Use Target eyedroppers to sample shadows, midtones, and
highlights of the clip you are trying to adjust.
Color Offset
The Color Offset effect shifts the pixels of the red, green, and blue channels in a specified
direction and amount. Use this effect to create a three-dimensional clip for viewing with
