Lumetri color preset - SL Gold Tobacco (Arri Alexa) has gone completely

I used the preset "SL Gold Tobacco (Arri Alexa)" in Lumetri in a previous project built in CC2015.3. I then upgraded to 2017. Now that preset doesn't seem to exist and all I get is chequered screen for that clip (image below). I checked "known issues with 2017" announcement and the chequers problem is in there so I followed the workaround and removed the Lumetri effect then re-applied it but that preset is no longer offered as an option. The problem is that it's a pretty distinctive look and I don't know how to re-create it so I'm stuffed!

Does anyone know how to reinstate that preset to Lumetri, please?

Hi Kusumas,

I am seeing the SL Gold Tobacco LUT listed in my presets. The one you used for "Arri Alexa" is not a stock one. You probably created that one as a custom LUT and it doesn't exist in the new build.

Sorry.

Kevin

Hi Kevin, I know this is a very long time ago now but I found the plugin in a different menu:

I had been looking in the preset list in the Effect Controls window but I found and can use it in the Effects window - I just drag it in as a totally new effect so I can delete the other Lumetri effects from the Effect Controls window if I need to.

Hi Kusumas,

Applying new versions of the same effect is the de facto workaround for your issue. Glad you got it working.

Take care,

Kevin

Sorry - I've found it now - it's in the Present list in the "Effects" Window / "Lumetri Presets" list. So it is there without me creating anything.

Just so you know.

Thanks Kevin,

I genuinely don't know how to create or adapt one of those presets so I don't think that is the case ... HOWEVER, I found one that I think would work: "GOLD TOBACCO - SL - 3528" in the Legacy folder in Lumetri using Explorer (Finder to Mac users) and added it to Technical, as suggested in another thread on a similar subject. The problem now is that, in PPro2017, I can see it in the Lumetri presets list but my PC simply won't select it: I open the presets list, place the mouse cursor over the "GOLD TOBACCO - SL - 3528" preset and click but the programme uses the preset above, not the one I selected.

Any idea on that, please?

I wonder if the preset you were trying to access was for a previous version of Premiere Pro. Was it?

Thanks,

if they are in legacy folder, just copy them over to technical folder to show up in lumetri.
