Missing Channel Blur Effect

[robrandon0]

I am trying to apply the channel blur effect to my clip but the option does not appear in my effects tab. Is there a bug removing some filters or was the effect moved someplace else?

what app?

Welcome to the Adobe forums @robrandon0 . I see this is your first post. The channel blur effect is available in both After Effects and Premiere Pro. We will be happy to move your post for you when you tell us which you are using.

Hey @robrandon0 @Carmelo Nicol351103341jea  The channel blur is removed along with all the obsolete effects from 24.6 latest update. If you still wish to use it, please install the older versions of Premiere Pro application. Thanks!

@robrandon0 , I've moved your post from Creative Cloud Desktop to Premiere Pro for you.

Hello @RitishKapoor, could you explain why you removed the effect in the lastest update? Now if I want to use this effect in premiere pro, how do I use it?

Yes please. Let us know

As stated above, it was an "Obsolete" effect, as it has been for years. These were ancient code that statistically had relatively few users.

They have consistently advised since the  2018 version, that at some point the Obsolete folder would go. The newer Mac "silica" or whatever they are never had the Obsolete folder, as that would have required writing new code.

They have a list of those effects with what to use as a replacement, and that list is posted in numerous threads on this forum.

I've been searching for the list of replacements for obsolete effects, but cannot find it in these forums. Can anyone please share again?

Simple search for Premiere Obsolete replacement.

Not all the replacements work the same way though most are as good or better.

If you're looking to create the halation effect I had the same problem. Check out this video to make the effect using another method https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EE_K9SieHb4

See the answer marked correct from @RitishKapoor earlier in this thread. Use a previous version of PP if you want to use this obsolete effect.
