Is there a Premiere CS6 analogue of Photoshop's Hue/Saturation adjustment layer?

I'm running CS6 and I'm trying to deal with 8mm colour footage from the 1940s. The reds are very strong and can't really be dealt with via RGB curves, the usual way I deal with colour problems. If I was in Photoshop, I'd do this:

• apply a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer;

• select the red channel (from the available options of RGBCMY); and

• desaturate the reds by 10-30%

Works well on a still from the film in Photoshop, but I can't find any colour effect inside Premiere that allows me to desaturate just the reds.

Is there a Premiere analogue of Photoshop's Hue/Saturation?

    If you have cs6 creative suite, then you also have speed grade, a color grading program. Some people really liked it. It is no longer supported by Adobe. If you want there are people here who are really good at using it and may see this thread and suggest exactly how to do what you want.

    I'm using a laptop with internet and not my editing computer, and I don't have a sample of your source material either. I assume it's like the usual old 8mm stuff that got old and color is what it is now.

    If you use something to share a 5 second portion of a file that you want to use as a sample there's ways to do it. And it wouldn't be a gazillion gigabyte file. Just enough to work with.

    So you do have options aside from subscription. But either way I'm sure you'll get it looking as nice as possible !

    Thanks for all the comments. I was hoping that desaturating reds could be accomplished by a workaround, but according to responses to my post in the Photoshop forum about how desaturation is actually done, there's a lot of complex maths behind it. Thus, no workaround mimic.

    I've uploaded a 1 minute snippet from the film (330 MB). For Tasmanian bushwalkers, the target audience, it has significant historical interest. The film was taken in 1947 on a 14-day trip from Cradle Mt to Lake St Clair and then to Frenchmans Cap. I had it scanned at 2k on a Lasergraphics Scanstation, supposedly the best scanner for 8mm film. The upload has been scaled to 50% and converted to ProRes 422 (from the original 4444)

    Reds are the main problem – but only when skin tones are in the frame. There is a small amount of red cast overall, but it is mostly a skin-tone problem. Why would that be?

    Anyway, as soon as I saw the reds I thought: desaturate them 30% using Hue/Saturation, my typical solution for slide scans that have a one-colour saturation problem. And when I try that in AE or PS, is seems to be an excellent start, affecting only those red skin tones.

    If anyone else wants to experiment on the film to see how best to reduce the reds, I'd been interested to hear your comments. I'm not looking for superb colour accuracy, in fact I want most of the imperfections of the film to remain so that it has the look of an old film. But those red skin-tones need taming.

    It's a pity that Adobe never implemented Hue/Saturation in Premiere CS6. It's a very useful tool.

    full resolution on program monitor

    red gamma down to 80

    some messing around with rgb white


    LAST ONE...

    LEVELS applied first ( stacking order matters) with R gamma 80, the rest default

    Brightness Contrast effect added next, adjusted to taste.

    you can import movies directly into photoshop. premiere has a lumetri color wheel where you can desaturate with a circle selector.

    another thing I use is, white output on red channel reduce to 140 and set transfer mode to 'color'.

    Thanks, Chris, for the suggestions.

    The films are part of a larger project in Premiere, so the PS suggestion would be undesirable, I think, because it would involve an extra encode out of PS.

    Re the last sentence, I don't understand which effect you are suggesting I use.

    I also use cs6. A dinosaur.

    suggestion was probably something like levels red channel output.

    I'm sure you've already gone through all the options...but it's not like photoshop cs6. No selective color adjustment layer, or hue saturation stuff that I know of.

    This one is OK (RGB) but all this is really fine adjustments and tricky. You can go to speed grade if you have that too...

    Also these get stacked. The order matters.  I would do levels first and then RGB, see what happens.
