AJA Color Pipeline
NOTE: The Frame Store, Bypass, and Overlay controls are available in all ColorBox
pipeline modes, and their settings are applied to all the other pipeline modes.
These settings are also saved to Presets.
The AJA Color Pipeline has seven color processing nodes, along with the Overlay,
Frame Store and Bypass features. This pipeline has four 1D LUT nodes, two 3x3
Matrix nodes, and one 3D LUT node. Each of these seven nodes can be configured
with different types of processing, depending on the type of node.
NOTE: LUTS from other providers can be loaded into AJA Color Pipeline nodes. For
example, a free LUT downloaded from the internet can be loaded into an AJA
Color Pipeline node, and you can then A/B compare it to a different LUT, or see
what their combination does to the output color.
