Vibrance

[AlexR]

Lightroom Version Number

15.2

Operating System

1. macOS 26 Tahoe

I nearly always use the Adobe Standard profile - however Auto Settings, which I often use as a starting point, invariably sets Vibrance to around +20, which is far too high and has a particularly unpleasant effect upon grass and foliage colours. I can and do take it out easily, of course, but how can I prevent Auto Settings from adding it as a default in the first place?

Thanks, Alex

You can’t prevent that.

Jeffrey Friedl's "Bag-o-Goodies" plug-in includes a "Personalized Auto Tone" tool which would allow you to do what want regarding any of the 8 sliders in the Basic panel that can be affected by Auto Tone: https://regex.info/blog/lightroom-goodies/bag-o-goodies#personalized-auto-tone

I used Jeffery's Personalized Auto Tone at one time. When the Auto Sensei version first came out the contrast was not great but Adobe did fix that. I used it to correct for that and a few other things. When Adobe came out with Adaptive Preset I stopped using his app.

Vibrance is a little high. I guess a lot of pros run it that high. Sensei was trained on thousands of pro edits. You can always create your own preset to apply after you use Auto to tame it. Auto is very good but when I used it I still had to tune things as not every file is the same.

I haven't used Auto since the Adaptive Profile came out. I think it is much better than Auto and no sliders move which gives yo full control after you apply it. Even then I often fine tune it's results.

Agreed. You can apply the Adaptive Profile in a preset, and add slider settings (and other things like Lens Corrections) to this preset. The result is normally much better than using a traditional profile and Auto.

I apply the Adaptive Profile at import because I like to see it's impact at first glance. When I decide to work on a file I Reset and start from Noise Reduction or Raw Details. If I don't use Denoise AI (which automatically applies Raw Details) I always apply Raw Details. I Reset to avoid needing to press the orange update warning button when I edit. I use my own short list of Adobe's suggested order of edits. I looks less overwhelming

I once asked if importing with that profile used lot of extra storage space in the catalogue and provided an example. I think you responded by saying it was not that much. It was someone here.

Except that the profile is not activated when you do that. You have to ‘update AI settings’ before you can actually see the effect…

Yes. After import while in the library module I select all the file and update AI settings. It takes a few seconds all to get updates.
