Please keep Lumetri available as an option alongside the new color mode. My workflow does not require a deeper grading setup, and Lumetri is already sufficient for the imagery work I do. For users like me, being forced into a new color workflow is unnecessary. Please let users choose the color interface that best fits their work.

This would work as a Lumetri Color “replacement”, only if you had the ability to add LUTS

Wow, can’t argue with any of that, but the colors actually look better! I do apologize for your discontent and hope Adobe can make everyone happy with guidance.

Just updated - they got rid of the lumetri panel. So annoying. Years and years of fast turnaround and quick color editing, gone. I stuck with premiere because I dont like all the color wheels and fancy adjustments that the davinci users love. I like my quick and easy color editing. Very disappointed in Adobe for removing this and adding a whole color tab. Why?

I understand you can still find the Lumetri Color "effect" in the effects tab but that means I now have to drag and drop the effect over every clip. so dumb.... Just add the Lumetri Color tab back please.

The new color mode is much much faster and powerful and fun. But it’s only my opinion. Please, try again.

It's a bad color grading system.

Total disaster. Quick color work is essentially gone, now we must go into a deep set of tools… the sliders were perfectly fine. Why must that system be eliminated? I spent the whole morning in Color Mode and concluded that I no longer want to use the app! Typical Adobe releasing “amazing” new features without fixing simple workflow and known bugs for years. To everyone saying “limetri is there as an effect” the UI is totally different. And “Properties” doesn’t display most of the color sliders. Where are Shadows, Highlights, Whites, Vignettes? All hidden away elsewhere. And why are the numerical values different - Contrast was 0-100 now it’s something different. Same for exposure. I used those values… where are they now??? Another nail in Adobe’s coffin here.

With only 10 upvotes on this post, I think we need to get used to the sad reality that someone at Adobe decided that Color Mode is the future and not enough people care about the Lumetri panel for it to stay. It's ridiculous. Doing a simple color adjustment is now a tedious ordeal. But it doesn't seem like they want to listen.

Pretty sure I watched an Adobe video guide to Color Mode that said Lumetri will still be there, but advised against using it and embracing CM instead… Has that situation changed since the video was made?

@Johnny5E76 it’s hard to say for sure without knowing exactly what video you mean, but there are a couple things they could have meant:

While Color Mode is in Beta, the Lumetri panel will continue to exist in the main release version of Premiere. We won’t remove that until Color Mode leave beta and goes to release.
Even in Color Mode, there are basic color controls out in Edit mode in the Properties panel, that look a bit like Lumetri used to. You can see my screenshot in this thread. It’s possible they were referring to that.
Lumetri as an applied effect will still exist and work in Premiere once Color Mode is released. This is to maintain compatibility with older projects opened in the newer version of Premiere. What will be missing is the Lumetri panel interface, but the effect will still be visible (and editable, though a little clumsily) in the Effects Control Panel.

speed is my main concern. Not every project need color mode especially for things like news and journalism. I don’t need to GRADE every clips whenI work on news packages just some basic CC and the new properties panel is limiting in that regard. Also the new Pop-up/ HUD scopes are terrible. please allow us to select which scopes we want and how to arrange them in a separate window so we can scan the entire programm as we watch it n=down and NOT one clip at a time if we click in it.

@roberts2771643 Speed of grading for editors is our concern as well. What about the Properties panel is limiting to basic corrections you need to do? Is there a tool/slider you want to see there that’s not?

You have full control over where the pop-up HUDs appear in color mode, including turning them off entirely. Click the wrench icon on the right side of the color controls panel and choose “Color Heads Up Display options”.

Color mode (and Edit Mode) have a re-done scopes panel called Video Scopes. You can find it in Window > Video Scopes. You can always put these wherever you want just like any panel and choose which of the various scopes you see.

Yes. Vibrance, whites and highlights would all be good to have access to.

@Laurie31362457mrjd Lumetri as an effect and panel is going away – it’s not possible to make all the controls from Lumetri compatible with the new color system.

That said, you’re right that sometimes going all the way to Color Mode for a small tweak on one clip would be a burden. As part of Color Mode, we’re adding the basic adjustments as sliders (similar to Lumetri) to the Properties panel in Edit Mode. So you’ll be able to do quick adjustments on things like Exposure, Contrast, Temp/Tint, and Saturation. Anything you change there will also reflect in Color Mode if later you go there to do a more detailed grading pass.

Here’s what that looks like in the Properties panel in Edit Mode:

Is there any plan to make this as thorough as it used to be? The lack of a shadows/highlights slider or quick access to vignette, curves, or the three-way color corrector still means that what used to take a few seconds is now going to be a burdensome, interface switching ordeal.

Agree with this, I very quickly tried out the new colors panel and it seems powerful and actually like a worthwhile tool when necessary, but quick or clear are not words I’d use to describe it. With these settings available in properties we’re approaching best of both, but it would be really great to have a fuller feature set, at minimum put highlights, shadows, and white levels back, they’re very useful for quick adjustments.
