JR LAB Macros (Affinity Photo)

This macro pack provides a number of non-destructive macros that use the LAB colour model for powerful tone and colour manipulations. They can be applied in any colour format (RGB, CMYK or LAB) as Affinity Photo supports colour model switching without requiring a document conversion.

Manipulating brightness and colour based on the LAB colour model can offer more natural tonal changes, but these macros demonstrate wider uses—from dramatic but realistic recolouring of colour ranges, to enhancing luminosity based on the A or B opponent channel data and more.

Remember to experiment with layer opacity to further increase the usefulness of these macros!

The available macros include:

• Gold Punch
  
• Red Gold Matte
• A Opponent 50:50
• B Opponent 50:50
