Material Color Blend

{width="128px"}

In: Material Filters > Blending

Description

This node allows for adjustments to a Multi Channel, Full Material by blending solid colors on top. This is the main difference with Material Adjustment Blend, which only allows for Levels-type adjustments to channels, whereas this node uses Blend-type adjustments with a solid color.

This node is most useful when you want to either introduce a flat color hint into Diffuse or Base Color, or went you want to “flatten” out other channels by using a set, solid color value.

Inputs

ColorID Color Input
Mask slot used for masking the node’s effects.
Greyscale Mask Grayscale Input
Mask slot used for masking the node’s effects.
