Capture One Color Balance – trial

The trial Capture One Color Balance set contains 106 presets divided over 39 folders. The set covers all 4 color wheels and their Color and Lightness controls. The presets can be used both separately and combined.

Compatibility

The presets are compatible with both Capture One 8/9/10/11/12 on Mac and Windows. They might work with older versions but at your own risk. It is recommended to test with the free trial first.

Range

Color adjustments for all 4 color wheels can be made for 12 different colors. Each color has a range from 5-75% in 15 steps (5% each).

The 12 December 2017 release (1.1) adds a 3-Way control for the same range of the individual color wheels. These presets control the 3-Way color wheels together. This effectively replaces the Master wheel for better color fidelity. It also is a better starting point for further refinements in separate color wheels like Shadow and Highlight as all presets are stackable.

In addition, there is a Lightness adjustment for the Shadow, Midtone, Highlight and the combined 3-Way wheels. The range covers the entire scale of the tool in 18 steps, from -8 up to +9.

Languages

Both the full and the trial set contain the presets in English, German, French, and Dutch.

Try First

There is a free trial set available for download. It is a subset of the full set, containing 106 (out of 972) presets. You are highly encouraged to try these first before you buy the full set.

Please note that the presets in the trial set are limited to 6 different colors and a smaller range with fewer steps for all adjustments.

You can also download all free trial presets in one package, the Preset Collection Free Trials set.
