- Have you ever wondered what the Channel Mixer Adjustment inside of Photoshop is and what it is used for?
In this video I explain the Channel Mixer and demystify it. Stay until the end of the video where I do an edit using the Channel Mixer Adjustment.
The Channel Mixer Adjustment is a great tool and I hope you will agree with me and start using it in your Photoshop Workflow.
I'm using Corel Paintshop Pro and I was totally lost trying to figure out what the tool does. I sent multiple letters to their tech support asking for a better explanation than I saw in the help menu. I even searched multiple videos on TH-cam trying to find an answer. Then I watched this and everything made sense. Great job. Thank you.
Everything finally got grasped in mind, Great contribution, straight to point explanation.
Your tutorial on channel mixer gives me the best answer to my questions of how channel mixer is working ! I've got a crystal clear understanding of it. Great work
that was a wonderful example. thanks!
You're very welcome!
Thye best explanation of the. channel mixer so far ! Now I feel confident about it . You make it easy to understand and get it . Thank you . one more sub .
Very useful video Dave. I have several images that have a blue haze so I’m going to try your channel mixer idea to remove it.
Thank you so much Dave! Very helpful and informative tutorial! I love the way you explain the matter, very clear and understandable! God bless you and good luck!
Thank you so much
Very good explanation and demonstration. Thank you.
Thank you so much !
Best explanation ever! Can you pls do for selective colour. Tks
çok güzel bir ders teşekkürler
Thankuu Sir
thanks 🌻
learn a lot,Great work!
Excellent presentation and explanation. Thanks for the video.
You are welcome!
Excellent and easy explanation. Great!
Thanks Peter.
That's not at all how I thought the tool worked -- thanks!
Thanks Dave, that was very well explained. I’m still looking for a solution to my problem though.. I have an image of folds of fabric, just fabric with light and shade of the draping and folding, and am trying to alter the whole image to a Pantone colour eg Pale Olive Green and it gives R183 G173 B136 and a hex #. I have spent a week trying to find info on how to change my whole image to these RGB values but cannot find any coherent answers apart form folks using an eye dropper for spot colour matching. This comes close when you added blue to whole image. Any tips or previous videos on how to work to a specific colour “recipe”? Many thanks
One tidbit, if I may: watch the Channel image *change* (becoming darker or lighter) in response to each adjustment in the Channel Mixer.
Right now I'm struggling to understand what channel should I choose if my white channel has some red! What channel is white!?!?
cool video. tks . Just wonder when you use the real photo as demo, you add more red to red chanel. At first I think that as you mentioned earlier, photoshop set the Red in red channel as 100% satuated, thus my first response is that there will be no change when you add Red to red channel.
Yes, but remember that at the beginning, he taught us the theory with pure color samples. Pure red won't get any 'redder'. In the landscape image though, the tree wasn't pure red, so there was still potential to add red when moving the red slider past 100%.
@@andreas.farsch tks you .
When I use either sRGB or Prophoto, the grays do not accurately represent the color channels when using channel mixer which is baffling. You'll see a significant shift in the mid-tones. I hope Adobe fixes this issue because it's well needed.
I haven't noticed that. I will check it out.
@@thejoyofeditingwithdavekelly You'll see it when you make a comparison of the actual Channel and the one produced by Channel Mixer. That is, if you're trying to recreate the red channel using channel mixer, you'll see a vast difference. Let me know if you find a solution. Thanks.
@@AstroSirrus I will.
@6:45 you say "Red is fully saturated"? That isn't quite correct. If you start with a circle filled with Red = 255 then, when you push the slider to the right, then, yes, there is no more "red" that could possibly be added to the red channel -- it's already at its max value. *But*! If you set, say, the red circle to 175 then, when you push the Red slider to the right, there is *room* for adding more red, you see?
photoshop police lol😂

I wonder if you want a Duotone image.
I took an image in Photoshop, and went under Image => Mode => Grayscale. (I clicked Discard.)
Then I went under Image => Mode => Duotone.
The Duotone Options Dialog Box popped up.
I set the "Ink 2:" color to be R:183, G:173, B:136 by clicking on the colored square.
I hope this helps?
