• Y'CbCr Parade: Presents three side-by-side waveform displays for the separate Y
(luma), Cb (blue color difference channel), and Cr (red color difference channel)
components. The waveforms are tinted white (for luma), magenta (for Cb), and yellow
(for Cr) so that you can easily identify the waveform for each component.
• IRE: Displays the video range in IRE units. This is the only measurement unit available
for Chroma and Y′CbCr Parade waveforms in the Rec. 2020 PQ color space.
• Millivolts: Displays the video range in millivolts.
• Nits (cd/m²): Displays the video range in nits (candelas per square meter). This option is
available only for Rec. 2020 PQ clips and projects.
Vectorscope display options in Final Cut Pro
The vectorscope shows the distribution of color in your image on a circular scale. The color
in your video is represented by a series of connected points that fall somewhere within this
scale. The angle around the scale represents the hue displayed, with targets indicating
the primary colors of red, green, and blue and the secondary colors of yellow, cyan,
and magenta. The distance from the center of the scale to the outer ring represents the
saturation of the color being displayed. The center of the scale represents zero saturation,
and the outer ring represents maximum saturation.
