• EXPAND a channel. This channel will change the whole picture.
• Select the wash button on the display next to the hue output control - (DCP Panel) The knob now adjusts a hue multiplier instead of the usual adder or offset.
• Turn the control to a minimum. The range of hues in the picture will decrease down to 1. 5. Press the wash again.
  The control will revert to be a hue offset.
• Select the required hue.
  This will provide a wash through replacing all the hues with just one.

Often this is the desired look. The original black, grey and white areas will have very little colour in them, as they have a low saturation.

To put a wash colour into these parts of the picture, their saturation must be changed...

• Turn the saturation control down to a minimum.
  The range of saturations in the picture will removed leaving a desaturated picture.
• Select the wash button on the display next to the saturation output control - (DCP Panel) The knob now adjusts a saturation multiplier instead of the usual adder or offset.
• Slowly turn this saturation control up and you will see the desired hue or colour appear in all parts of the picture.

This method will produce a true colour tone effect where, for example, a true sepia can be achieved as colour is added where there was no colour before. Again, because these controls are variable, the picture can be mixed from normal colour to a tint over a number of frames.
