Realtime Matrox Flex CPU effects
The Matrox RT.X2 platforms rely on the power of your CPU to perform a variety of realtime and accelerated effects.
The Matrox Flex CPU effects are also available in Adobe After Effects. If you have a timeline in Premiere Pro with any of the
Matrox Flex CPU effects and you copy/paste the timeline into After Effects, the Matrox effects will remain intact. This is a huge
time saver, given that these effects are realtime in Premiere Pro.
· Realtime primary color correction Primary color correction is a critically important effect for all productions, whether to
achieve continuity when cutting between shots, ensure broadcast safe levels, or establish and emphasize a “look”. The primary
color corrector provides basic proc amp control; three-way color correction complete with master, shadows, midtones and
highlights control; input/output level control; and RGB curves control.
Realtime proc amp controls The Matrox RT.X2 platforms let you easily adjust four proc amp controls hue, saturation,
brightness, and contrast. Hue adjusts the tint of the colors in the image, saturation adjusts the vividness, contrast adjusts the
difference in luminance between the lightest and darkest areas of the image, and brightness adjusts the level of black. You can
also use these controls to create special effects, such as black and white, in real time.
