Grading with Printer Lights in Resolve

[@enidrajm]

The comparison you made toward the end was excellent for demonstrating the difference between using additive (RGB) and subtractive (CMY) techniques for color correcting. Thanks for that!

[@lukerosspost]

No worries at all mate!

[@robbrown3543]

Thanks for a quick straight forward video!

[@jcinewilliams8819]

always hear about using printer lights but had know idea what it was. Thank you for this tutorial

[@dpjohnjones432]

Bro thank you! You literaly changed my color in one video.

[@lukerosspost]

Ay, no worries at all man! I did another video on Printer Lights recently - you can check that out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWjEmXZ3aLWHaKM&ab_channel=lukerosspost

[@hersh_yt]

Very nicely done tutorial thank you sir

[@kroesifantrom2837]

This video helped me so much! Thank you!

[@nikolasdove]

Is it accurate to say that using the RGB controls is affecting the low range colors and CMY controls are controlling the high range colors? To me it seems that adding blue in that example (lets say the effect was 100%) is a gradient of white highlights to blue shadows within the spectrum and subtracting yellow is creating a gradient of blue highlights and black shadows. Am I crazy? lol I'm just trying to wrap my head around when additive color is better than subtractive color and vice versa. Love the video!

[@VidEvage]

This simple tip is so damn handy. Many many thanks for showing this in a simple and clear way.

[@MattFaris]

Fantastic description of something I've been trying to get my head around. Thank you!

[@AllThingsFilm1]

Thank you for the walkthrough of the printer lights controls. This really helped. Subscribed.

Great tutorial. Is it possible to use those keys for LGG wheels as well? Or is it locked to offset only?

[@lukerosspost]

Hey - unfortunately the LGG wheels aren't linked to shortcut keys, so it only works for the printer lights!

[@djdrh]

are you kidding me???? This is soooo fantastyc, thank you

[@marquism1799]

You broke this down so well man. Thank you for this.

[@DanielSarli]

is there any difference between adding cyan and subtracting red? or any other pair of complementary colors?

[@binuvp9202]

Well explained, Thank you so much!

[@guillermovaccarezza7105]

Hi, thanks for the tut! Can you use printer lights on a laptop keyboard though?

[@lukerosspost]

Hey mate! No you need the numpad, or an external device like a full size keyboard or Stream Deck.

[@alexandrecrozet1755]

You totally can use it on a laptop ! You just need to go to keyboard customisation and assign the hotkeys to whatever key you want. Moreover if you use a MacBook Pro with a Touch Bar, you already have it on the Touch Bar which is even more visual.@@lukerosspost

[@lukerosspost]

@@alexandrecrozet1755 I wasn't aware of the compatibility with the Touch Bar, that's cool 🔥 although you can map the hotkeys to whatever you like, practically, on a smaller keyboard without dedicated keys, it's a huge pain. Most common keyboard buttons are already assigned to shortcut keys and finding a good layout is tricky. The Touch Bar sounds like a cleaner solution!

[@alexandrecrozet1755]

Yes, of course you can't have it all on a small keyboard if you want to use other shortcuts. But yes the Touch Bar option works well! @@lukerosspost

[@ginotarabotto]

Awesome video. Will this work with laptop keyboard row?

[@lukerosspost]

If you have a device like a Stream Deck or an extended keyboard, it will 😊 most laptop keyboards don’t have a numpad unfortunately so they can’t be used…!

[@Dylan.R.C]

Many Thanks for this wonderful tutorial, very difficult to find it in any DaVinci Resolve training, excellent explanation an a few words.

[@ArcanePath360]

Very succinct. Appreciate it!

[@HendrikusDeVaan]

Is there a way to use these controls for Lift, Gamma, Gain - or only for the offset? Right now I just hover my cursor over the primaries bar and scroll to adjust, but hotkeying would be handy.

[@lukerosspost]

Not that I'm aware of mate, but there could be..!

[@HendrikusDeVaan]

@@lukerosspost feature suggestion time 😂

[@hunter8980]

This is very IMPRESSIVE!!!! Thanks a lot!

[@文翰-o8c]

Every useful tutorial! Looking for another Baselight video that you made

[@lukerosspost]

I'll be releasing another Baselight tutorial really soon 😊

[@CarlAustinGregory]

This was really helpful.

[@bipinvarma3249]

Very informative.

[@oliash2109]

Would just mention you can also add hotkeys for increasing/decreasing colour based on quarter or half increments for increased accuracy (half and quarter light print). Other than that good video and very informative :).

[@lukerosspost]

Hey Oli! Good point - I actually cover this topic and how I use the Stream Deck to use Printer Lights in this video here if you're curious: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWjEmXZ3aLWHaKM&ab_channel=lukerosspost

[@chris.chiutena]

Great TIP luke Thank you for sharing :)

Excellent... Subscribed !! 👌

[@nguoimientay99g9]

many thanks

[@hunter8980]

Why the same action on my keyboard does not work? Example: Pressing 7 and 4 keys on my keyboard has no result. (I already set Printer Light Hotkeys under Color.)

[@lukerosspost]

Hey Chetan - are you using the keyboard numpad? The number keys up the top of the keyboard won't work, maybe that's the issue?

[@hunter8980]

@@lukerosspost Thank you so much for the reply. I will try one more time using numpad.

[@alejandraoreluyo2705]

Your are amazing!!!!! :D thank you so much, It's well explained.

[@maanharman5070]

very good video

[@lukerosspost]

Thanks mate!

[@Lensmanvracademy]

fantastic.loved it

[@ShakyFootage]

Thanx a lot!!!! very useful!!!!!

[@Stellaaahmanella]

Thank you a ton (:

[@omroyukulele-007]

won't work in my MacBook

[@visiontheoryproductions]

DO these work on a mac laptop?

[@lukerosspost]

Yes I believe they do work on MacOS. The laptop would need to have a numpad though - lots of them don't (mine included...)

[@cyrusgomezalcala]

I ran into this issue also... I just changed the assign keys

[@gqn2]

I always hear Waqas Qazi say printer lights but don't really know what it means

[@JCurtisMedia]

I thought printer lights was a general term. Now I know for certain. Thanks for sharing. #newsub
