About Chromatic

Chromatic is the most complete and flexible professional color grading plugin for Final Cut Pro X. Featuring integrated mask tracking, powerful color keying, and support for auto white balance including powerful linked grading capabilities using grade groups. Unlike other FCPX solutions, in Chromatic all of these functions and more are available in one powerful color correction product. We are constantly refining and adding new features to Chromatic and we love getting feedback and enhancement requests. Since the launch of Chromatic, we have added improved hotkeys, a gallery browser for your stack presets, compare buffers to quickly do shot-to-shot comparisons, exporting grades as CUBE files, auto balance, and more. This color grading plugin delivers an all-in-one Final Cut Pro X solution that puts the essential tools right at your fingertips in a simple clear interface, including tracked masks, with individual control of the overall grade, as well as inside and outside the mask.

Cinema Grade

The best color grading software to achieve a cinematic look for your films. Long gone are the days when color grading was an obscure art done only on expensive suites with space-age-looking equipment by very few chosen ones. Nowadays it is expected for every editor and solo filmmaker to be able to deliver a professional-looking grade even if you are rocking an old beat-up laptop. No matter how good you are with lights and cameras, not every shot is going to be perfectly exposed and not all shots will match. when clouds keep constantly moving changing the exposure in your frame. Maybe a mistake was made in the camera with the wrong white balance setting. All this means you’ll need to do color correction to correct for exposure and matching issues. Cinema Grade is a color grading plugin that works with 3 of the most popular editing software out there, Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve.
