The LUT Cube Analyzer node
LUT Cube Analyzer Node Introduction
The LUT Cube Analyzer takes an image originated by the LUT Cube Creator as an input and allows the user to create a 3D LUT file in ALUT3, ITX, or 3DL format.
Feeding the original LUT Cube Creator image into the node results in an unaltered, or 1:1, LUT file, and nothing is displayed in the viewer.
You can, however, modify, grade, and color correct the original cube image with as many nodes as you like and feed the result into the LUT Cube Analyzer. This creates a LUT that exactly resembles your color pipeline.
Inputs
The LUT Cube Analyzer includes a single orange input.
— Input: The orange input is used to take the output of any node modifying an image that originated with the LUT Cube Creator.
Basic Node Setup
The example below shows a node tree starting with a LUT Cube Creator node and going through two color adjustments. The adjusted image is then connected to a LUT Cube Analyzer, which generates the LUT file.
Generating a LUT starts with the LUT Cube Creator and ends with a LUT Cube Analyzer.
