I would like to ask you a qestion just been reading channel mixer and multichannel on the web but actually i still cant get it very much it says in channel mixer if the total RGB % is 100% then the image is ok but mine is still the same color with the one most of the percentage color comprising of my image. what did i do wrong? about multichannel why is it i convert to cmyk and yet thereis still black there?

I could speculate on this, but it would be much easier if you posted a copy of the orginal and told us the percent you set each channel. Then we could test it. -
Garfield, you have two questions.
On channel mixer, I agree with Andrew - save out the channel mixer adjustment file from the channel mixer dialog (save button) - which would be .cha files. Also crop out a small section and zip them both up for the forum to inspect...or a more concise and long winded explanation would be needed.
On multichannel mode - I am not following you. MC mode simply 'separates' the original channels into g/scale channels which are no longer in a mode such as RGB/LAB/CMYK etc. It is usually a temporary work mode from one space to another, such as converting true duotone mode into spot channel EPS DCS 2 files. MC mode has specific uses - but not for many common users. What exactly are you doing (again, concise step by step detail is needed).
I too would like to help, but I am feeling a little lost. <g>

Garfield,
If you are using the channel mixer to convert to black and white then the "add up to 100%" guideline is a good one - but you need to have ticked the "monochrome" box.Comment

As a newbie, I was having a go at challenge #44 with Photoshop 7. I got bogged down in an issue which really shouldn't be that difficult.
The writing at the bottom of the photo needs to be removed, and, conveniently, doesn't show in the blue channel. So, just take that part of the image...11-29-2002, 06:40 AM -
When looking at an individual primary channel in Photoshop, the image is lighter. Can somebody help me understand this? Something that is not perceptually neutral is happening behind the scene.
For example, a b&w image's RGB channels all look the same when I turn on each one individually,...05-06-2010, 01:11 PM -
This is one of 100s of slides I discovered belonging to my parents - that had been stored in a dank cupboard along with the potatoes and onions for the last 20+ years... (No - I'm really not kidding!) Not too surprisingly they are in a dreadful state.
I have only just started to look...03-27-2005, 10:29 AM -
I've attached a photo that I'd like to ask for some direction on and I'm sure there are plenty that can offer that here! I've used channels only in a very limited way so far and that would be in converting a scan of a photo to black and white using the channel mixer in PS to minimize the channels with...05-25-2006, 09:44 PM

Just a thought... how often do you use channel selections to DNB?02-08-2015, 02:31 AM
