Working with HSV and other color models in DaVinci Resolve can present unique challenges. One common issue is the extension of RGB values beyond their standard range, which occurs due to DaVinci Resolve’s handling of a significant dynamic range within a floating-point space. This allows color values to exceed the typical 0-1 range without being clipped, retaining detail in both shadows and highlights.

Not being happy with the native tools like “Color Warper” and “Hue vs Hue”, I developed a tool to shift and manipulate colors in a broad way. I was very inspired by FilmLight’s Baselight “Hue Shift” tool, where you have the option of first shifting hues into neighborly colors and then, in a second step, adding more saturation, changing the brightness or desaturating a specific hue value. It focuses exclusively on 6 main colors and is therefore very reduced and clearly designed. Here is an interesting video about the “Hue Shift” tool in Baselight. Other inspirations were “Capture One” and “Photoshop”.
