It used to be in color suites around the world a single top tier CRT monitor was the only one in the room. But as time went on and CRTs were phased out, a new paradigm emerged - the operators reference monitor and a larger client monitor. This kind of setup has persisted in color suites for over two decades. While the reference/client monitor setup is ubiquitous, it’s not without issues. Room setup/positioning becomes vital, managing metamerism issues when using two different display technologies are used can be a battle and perceptual matching between monitors can be challenging. But what if you could eliminate multi-display issues and depend on a single large reference monitor - well thats not without its own issues! In this episode we’ll explore this topic including covering some specifics including: Recap on traditional color room monitoring setups Grading theaters - a model for a single display room Mimicking the living room and challenges that presents What’s metamerism and why its such an important topic in multi-display setups Issues mixing display technologies The importance of room layouts Perceptual matching - what is it and does it work? The downsides of perceptual matching And more! Check out www.offsetpodcast.com for our entire library of episodes.
