AJA Color Pipeline provides users with the most advanced color management tools available for a device of its type. With 7 nodes of real time processing plus Overlay, the pipeline offers capabilities only seen in software based color correction applications. These nodes give you full control over color space, video level, and dynamic range conversion to get the most out of your color managed workflow. Dynamic nodes are controllable by third party applications.
This toolset enables workflows to be set up and easily replicated utilizing ColorBox preset import and export capabilities. |

This primary 33pt. 3D LUT uses tetrahedral interpolation for the highest accuracy conversion. 3D LUTs provide full volumetric non-linear color adjustment and a 33pt 3D LUT is a requirement for HDR workflows. Very useful for calibration purposes as the controls can respond to all possible calibration errors. Similarly, high end movie and television productions depend on 3D LUT processing for look generation, distribution, and management. When set to Dynamic, the 3D LUT is fully controllable through third party software like Pomfort Livegrade, Assimilate Live Looks, and QTAKE Video Assist. |

Flexibility is key in production and post, with four 1D LUTs it is easy to manage your color processing pipeline to get the best possible image. 1D LUTs are commonly used as “shaper LUTs” wrapping around the 3D LUT. The front shaper 1D LUT allows you to map perceptually significant values, typically the darker part of the color space, to use more of the 3D LUT transform data set resulting in a more effective use of the 3D LUT to produce a better image. The backside shaper 1D LUT is usually the inverse of the front, mapping pixel values into the original dynamic range. 1D LUTs can also be effectively used as log-to-linear and linear-to-log transforms. In the AJA Color Pipeline, 1D LUTs can even be set up as RGB Color Correctors for color correcting a source before 3D LUT processing, this is a common workflow in live production applications. |

ColorBox’s two 3×3 Matrices provide the operator a means to perform different color processing tasks outside of a LUT using their own 3×3 matrix files. 3×3 Matrices are commonly used for color space conversion, for example between RGB and XYZ or YUV, BT. 709 and BT. 2020, or other color spaces with different primaries. A 3×3 Matrix can be used to color balance a signal if the white balance is off. They can also be used for look creation such as film emulation. In the AJA Color Pipeline, 3×3 Matrices can even be set up as Proc Amps for adjusting a signal’s Gain, Black level, Hue, and Saturation before 3D LUT processing, this is a common workflow in live production applications. |

Colorfront Pipeline Options
Colorfront’s new TV Mode and Live Mode are now available in both FS-HDR and as a licensable option in ColorBox. TV Mode is an intuitive color processing engine aimed at broadcast workflows that contains the built-in SDR, HLG and PQ transforms.
When licensed, it provides operators access to new Brightness, Highlight, Super Highlight, and Colorfulness tools that enable greater control over critical elements in color conversions. With them, get controlled corrections within the guardrails of Colorfront’s perceptual processing algorithm, which will maintain perceived color, hue, and saturation without hard clipping artifacts. TV Mode also includes Sony S-Log3 conversions as part of the license upgrade, which have proven advantageous in modern live production applications.
The same license also enables Colorfront Live Mode, which includes several camera Log formats beyond SDR, HLG and PQ like the new ARRI LogC4.
- Colorfront Engine TV Mode
- Colorfront Engine Live Mode
- ORION-CONVERT Pipeline
- BBC HLG LUT Pipeline
- 4K/UltraHD Frame Capture and Recall
- Test Pattern Generator
- RGB Color Correction and Proc Amp

ORION-CONVERT brings the power of Cromorama color science to real time hardware based conversion. This same color science is responsible for the Emmy nominated and IBC 2021 Special Award winning NBCU LUT based HDR-SDR broadcast workflows, as well as UEFA Euro 2020, Tokyo 2020 Olympics, FIFA 2021 Arab Cup, Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, and the FIFA 2022 Qatar World Cup amongst others. ORION-CONVERT offers the necessary tools for broadcasters to create and deliver the HDR and SDR content consumers expect from a single master HDR workflow by providing critical controls required to set up the right conversion for your production. By being able to set the HDR and SDR reference anchor points in an HDR to SDR conversion, you can target an SDR program output that suits your market’s SDR display needs. You can target 200 nits SDR resulting in a much more representative image for the camera shader and a more vibrant HDR image for the viewer at home or target a perceptual match at 100 nits SDR. Also, in an HDR to SDR conversion, the unique 2 stage knee offers a pre-conversion compression in HDR only and a post-conversion compression in SDR only providing very effective roll off management control. The new Gamma Compensation feature applies the optional OOTF (as described in section 5.1 of ITU-R BT.2408-5) to compensate for the subjective change in appearance between SDR and HDR ensuring compatibility between different color conversion philosophies. This is a licensable upgrade and includes:

Unique to a device in its class, ColorBox has incredible frame capture and recall up to 4K/UltraHD 16-bit .tiff files allowing you to capture pre or post processed reference images. Multiple use cases are possible, from VFX composite checks, to look comparisons between takes to ensure consistency, and general reference image capture, recall and import/export to validate the color processing pipeline. Frames can be stored locally on ColorBox for easy access or saved directly to a computer running third party software like Livegrade and Assimilate. Capture or recall up to 16 full resolution images locally with an option to include the Overlay if needed. If the resolution of the image doesn’t match your target format, ColorBox can even scale it to fit. |

ColorBox can also output standard test patterns, without the need for an active input. ColorBox test patterns can be used in any number of scenarios where a test signal is needed rather than a source signal. The test patterns are configurable to output a wide range of video formats and frame rates. |

In AJA Color Pipeline, the 1D LUTs can be configured as a RGB Color Corrector and the 3×3 matrices as a Proc Amp. This allows for source color correction and image control prior to or after performing a 3D LUT transform ensuring the best possible conversion. BBC HLG LUTs and NBCU LUTs pipelines also offer a RGB Color Corrector and Proc Amp prior to 3D LUT processing. |

ColorBox offers several important features, from overlaying selected metadata and user data on the video for live use, capturing or embedding in the .tiff file for later use, or just passing ANC metadata to the next device. By storing the ANC data, one can quickly come back to and recall the exact camera settings, pipeline configuration, etc., that created an image. ColorBox also offers a customizable user text field that is great for overlaying any information on an image needing to be conveyed to an observer, such as camera or lens information, if the camera can’t provide it. When setting up a shot, many factors need to be considered when framing it. The camera manufacturer, the sensor size, the lens, and the target aspect ratio all play a role. The ability to see frame lines on-set gives the production the best chance at capturing the shot composition correctly for the project from the get go. New with ColorBox is User Overlay, providing the ability to import and overlay custom images onto the output. Those images could be frame lines or any other image, such as a logo, imported as .png files to the Overlay library and recalled along with or without the already available overlay information. User Text and User Overlay can also be stored on the captured image as part of the Overlay. Additional Overlay accessible data includes Input and Output VPID, Timecode presence, Closed Captioning presence, and Pipeline Configuration. Output HDMI infoframe status is also available in the UI.

ColorBox offers the largest library capacity of any equivalent device in its class, providing a wealth of creative choice onset or anywhere in the production pipeline. Set up an easy to access bank of options for any shoot, then recall the same settings just as easily in post. 16x onboard memory slots are available for each category of supported files; 1D LUTs, 3D LUTs, 3×3 Matrices, Images, and Overlays. Ten pipeline presets can be stored per pipeline, and all can be imported and exported to/from ColorBox. Pipeline Presets store all settings needed to replicate a configured transform. Included is also a Startup Preset setting that allows an operator to select a specific preset to be loaded upon power up, guaranteeing a known startup state. The Pipeline Presets for AJA Color Pipeline stores all files loaded into the pipeline, active or not, for easy setup and transfer between devices. |

In this production workflow, we see an on-set 12G-SDI signal from a 4K cinema camera system passed to the ColorBox via the 12G-SDI in. The ColorBox has a 3D LUT applied, which simulates a film look and is monitored for the DIT over the HDMI 2.0 out. At the same time, the DP monitors the same 3D LUT applied video via 12G-SDI for more critical feedback. Different 3D LUTs are selectable to suit the needs of the production, with easy control provided by the DIT. The loop through on ColorBox is connected to the Ki Pro Ultra 12G for high quality capture of the video signal without the LUT applied. Third party tools can adjust Color Decision Lists (CDL) values on the fly for on-set color grading. Download Workflow |

In this live television OB truck production workflow, we see a number of 12G-SDI outputs from UltraHD television camera systems that are passed to a number of ColorBoxes via the 12G-SDI in. SDR to HDR conversion is provided by the ColorBox units, in this case converting each input to be HLG on the output to suit the needs of the current live production single master HDR workflow. ColorBoxes on the output of the switcher convert HLG to different deliverable formats, including SDR and PQ. As sources are added, more ColorBox units can be included easily to accommodate the production as it scales. Download Workflow | ![]() |
In this postproduction workflow, a ColorBox is being used inline from the 12G-SDI output of an AJA Io 4K Plus. The timeline output is passed to the output of the Io 4K Plus and out to the ColorBox, where LUTs can be applied to the 12G-SDI monitored output without the need for rendering until later in the process. This allows editors to be nimble with auditioning looks and making decisions without having to wait for complex renders. Download Workflow | ![]() |
