Cross-processing in LR4

Mar 29, 2012 2:01 PM

For some reason, I have this idea in my head that LR4 allows for cross-processing (where you can edit the curve for each of the R,G,B channels individually). Does anyone know if this is true, and if so, how it's done? I can't see how to do it by fumbling around the interface.

 

Also, I keep hearing about a "point curve" in LR, but I thought it's a tone curve. Maybe cross-processing is done in this "point curve" I have yet to find?

 

Yes, I'm very LR ignorant.

    Tone curve - point curve (lower-right icon) - RGB drop down.

    No need for the tone curve - just use the Split Toning panel.

    There are 4 cross process presets under "lightroom Color Presets" (Develop Module - left side).

    Thanks, I see that now...

     

    @johnbeardy: I've tried to use Split Toning, but so far I'm striking out at coming up with anything that makes sense for the type of work I'm doing (portraiture, wedding).

     

    @web-weaver: Those presets are a bit too strong for my purposes. Tried them out last night. I did come up with some of my own based on curves I've used in the past. Still tinkering...
