Cutoff and Gain adjustments

 

 

 

 

 

Monitors use red, green and blue (R, G, and B) to

 

 

 

 

 

convey color information. They use an additive method

 

 

 

 

 

to combine different amounts of the primary colors to

 

 

 

 

 

produce a desired color. In other words, monitors start

 

 

 

 

 

with no light (black) and add percentages of red, green

 

 

 

 

 

and blue to make colors. White is usually produced by

 

 

 

 

 

adding the same amount of all three colors, where black

 

 

 

 

 

is usually produced by adding no color.

 

 

 

 

 

However, colors are not only determined by the balance

 

 

 

 

 

but also the intensities of R, G, and B (how bright they

 

 

 

 

 

are) which we call Gain, and the saturation of R, G and

 

 

 

 

 

B (how vivid or dull they are) which we call Cutoff.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

· If only a quick setting is required, that is close to the

 

 

 

 

 

desired color, but not exact, skip making any changes to

 

 

 

 

 

the Cutoff adjustment (step 4). If a precise match is

 

 

 

 

 

desired, adjustment of the Cutoff levels must be made.

 

 

 

 

 

We recommend that for exact matching, use a color

 

 

 

 

 

calibrator.
