Node Input Sockets

This section describes the input sockets of the node. Some sockets have dedicated parameters, which are further described below, and some sockets are just inputs.

Source Color – The color node connected here will be color corrected.

Hue Tint – Accepts color nodes to tint the Source Color.

RGB Brightness – This slot allows color nodes to be connected to enhance the brightness of the Source Color.

RGB Contrast – This slot allows color nodes to be connected to enhance the contrast of the Source Color.

RGB Base – Allows a color texture to be connected to serve as a base multiplier for the Source Color. Keep this at white to not alter the Source Color.

RGB Offset – This slot allows a color node to determine the color offset of the Source Color.

Properties

Source Color – Allows a fallback color to be applied when there is no texture connected.

Texture Map – Input socket for the input of a texture map.

Hue Shift – Specifies a value for the adjustment of the current color hue.

Saturation – Specifies a value for the saturation or desaturation of colors.

Channels

Rewire Red/Green/Blue/Alpha – Allows the following channels to be assigned to the Red, Green, Blue, or Alpha channels:

Red – Assigns the red channel.
Green – Assigns the green channel.
Blue – Assigns the blue channel.
Alpha – Assigns the alpha channel.
Redinv – Assigns the inverse of the red channel.
Greeninv – Assigns the inverse of the green channel.
Blueinv – Assigns the inverse of the blue channel.
Alphainv – Assigns the inverse of the alpha channel.
Monochrome – Assigns the channel to be monochrome.
One – Assigns the value 1.
Zero – Assigns the value 0.

Color

Hue Shift – Specifies a value for the adjustment of the current color hue.

Saturation – Specifies a value for the saturation or desaturation of colors.

Hue Tint – Specifies a color that is used to tint current colors.

Tint Strength – Adjusts the strength of the hue tint.

Lightness

Lightness Mode – Specifies the lightness mode that is used. You can choose between Standard and Advanced mode.
