I'm trying to select my personal LUT's to apply on a video, but when I go to Creative tab -> Look, I can't browse my own LUTs, there's simply no option in there for me to choose, but a list of standard available LUTs.

I used to browse them with no issues on Premiere 2024, and yes, all my LUTs have the correct extension .cube, as I already use them for years now..

Also, when I click Look tab and all those "SL" LUTs appear it also auto-clicks the one my mouse is hovering, so idk, might be a bug or something? Please help!

I am new to Premiere and trying to teach myself the basics so I can edit videos shot on my new DJI Pocket 3. DJI offered a LUT since I will be filming in the D-Log M, 10-bit mode. I've been all over the web and these boards to find the answer to this question and the simple answer seems to be that one needs to save their LUTs to a folder on the hard drive and use the browse option to find the folder and any 3rd party LUTs for use.

It's actually pretty easy, and it is in the Help document ... but they do leave out a crucial bit!

In the folders specified below, you must add the Technical (Lumetri Basic tab use) and Creative (Creative tab use) folders yourself. Placing the LUTs in those folders. And if you want to use the Input option, in the Color Management settings, those would go in an Input folder again you would need to create.

=========================

To install a custom LUT file, create one or more of the directories listed below:

macOS

Available only to the local user

Select Go > Go to Folder from the macOS Finder and enter this path: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/LUTs.

This location contains the Input and Output folders. Premiere Pro uses LUTs stored in the Input folder for these operations:

Modify > Interpret Footage > Color Management > Input LUT, which is Modify > Color > Input LUT in Premiere Pro v 24.0 and later.
In Premiere Pro 24.0 (or later), LUTs stored in the Input folder also appear in Lumetri Color > Settings > Source Clip > Input LUT.

You can also create the following folders to store LUTs:

~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/LUTs/Creative - LUTs stored here appear in Lumetri Color > Creative > Look.
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/LUTs/Technical - LUTs stored here appear in Lumetri Color > Basic Correction > Input LUT.

Copy your custom LUT files to the respective folder.

Available to all users

You need to create the /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/LUTs folder (absolute path) and all other folders that you need inside it. To create these folders, you need Admin credentials.

Windows

Available only to the local user

On Windows, LUTs are stored in the C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\LUTs\ location. This location contains the Input and Output folders.

Premiere Pro uses LUTs stored in the Input folder for this operation:

Modify > Interpret Footage > Color Management > Input LUT, which is Modify > Color > Input LUT in Premiere Pro v 24.0 and later.
In Premiere Pro 24.0 (or later), LUTs stored in the Input folder also appear in Lumetri Color > Settings > Source Clip > Input LUT.

Available to all users

You need to create the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\LUTs\ folder and all other folders that you need inside it. To create these folders, you need Admin credentials.

So which is it? Store them in C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\LUTs\ or C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\LUTs\. I created two folders under the first path, and NONE of my LUTs show up. "This location contains the Input and Output folders"??? Huh? The location contains two folders (which you told me to create) technical and creative. When I click on the down arrow in Lumetri Color (under input LUT) they are nowhere to be found. I have to browse, select a LUT, see if it's the one I want, and then repeat the process until I find one. I liked it when you could quickly select the LUT from the drop down menu and if it was no good, click through the LUTs. This was so much easier.

When I click on the down arrow these are the only LUTs I see:

But I still cannot get my LUTs to load automatically.

Frustrating...

I'm having the same issue the night before a school project is due.

I'm not even sure what to do.

Get a screenshot of your full folder-tree from C: on ... drag/.drop to your reply box text area, and we'll see if we can see some little thing off.

Oh ... and you may also need to check permissions for that folder you created. As sometimes the OS will set that so that Premiere can't really access it.

I am a having the exact problem of what he stated in the original post. It won't let me "Browse". When I click "browse" it just automatically selects one from the list. It never opens up the browse window. I can physically put them in the correct folder by myself and they do show up as options but I'd love to know why it won't let me browse for them.

Where are you parking your LUTs on the drives? That is crucial to getting proper reaction from Premiere.

For instance, never ever EVER!!!! put your LUTs in the same specific folder as the Program's included LUTs. Period.

But tell us where you parked them, we can help.

I have all of my LUTs in my Sandisk SSD. I used to always browse them and use them from the SSD, never dropped them in any specific Mac folder, or nothing close to put them inside same folder as standard ones..

They have a published chart showing locations where you can park your LUTs, so that Premiere can see and show them in the appropriate LUT dropdown list.

One is in the User/[yourname]/Documents/Adobe/... folder tree, one is in the Program {Package} files/Adobe/COMMON/LUTs folder. The latter, note, is not in the Premiere Program files!

If you put your LUTs in either listed location, the app will scan those folders on launch, and will show them in the appropriate LUT listing.

I put mine in the Program files/Adobe/Common/LUTs folder tree, and created the Technical and Creative folders at that location. Premiere will show the ones in the Technical folder in the Basic tab dropdown, and the ones in the Creative folder in the Creative tab drop down.

I do recommend using one of the approved locations as that makes it easier to access your LUTs. There's some changes I've long suggested to their system, but you can make it work.

Now if you put your LUTs there, you don't have to navigate to them ... they are simply shown, in alphanumeric order, in with the included LUTs.

Yup, I've tried that already, Ive placed all my LUTs inside Technical folder on my Mac, but nothing changed. Ill try reinstalling Premiere Pro, maybe that solves the issue. But it's kinda frustrating, Ive asked all my videomakers friends and not a single one of them ever had this issue, that's why Im very confused about it

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
