RAW Image Controls

Accessing UAD-RAW Source Settings in Premiere Pro

When working with UAD-RAW or any raw format, the image needs developing to look normal. Raw formats can expose control over the developing process. These controls typically include white balance/tint and exposure but can also feature more advanced and creative options. The UAD plugin exposes as much as possible while remaining straight forward to use.

To access the UAD-RAW image controls, select the clip in the timeline and then navigate to the Effect Controls window. Inside the Effect Controls window, activate the Source tab to show the source settings for the clip. This will be titled Source * CLIPNAME.uad.
