PFA Color Suite (Free Trial) - Unlimited Access

Experience the full power of the PFA Color Suite completely free. This trial gives you unlimited access to every feature—including the Subtractive Color Engine, Skin Match AI, and Film Texture module.

$0.00

Test Drive the World’s Fastest Color System.

Unlimited Time. Full Features. Zero Risk.

Most software trials give you 7 days to learn a complex tool. We believe that isn’t enough. The PFA Color Suite Free Trial is different: it never expires. We want you to take your time, test it on real projects, and push the engine to its limits on your specific hardware.

Whether you are a freelancer deciding if this fits your workflow, or a student wanting to learn subtractive color science, this trial is your fully functional sandbox.

Why Download the Trial?

This isn’t a “Lite” version. You are downloading the complete v3.5 Professional Edition. You get access to the exact same tools used by professional colorists, including the groundbreaking Neural Cache engine and the new Film Printer Lights.

1. The “Stress Test” Challenge

We claim our Neural Cache technology allows the PFA Color Suite to replace 20 nodes while maintaining real-time playback—even on older laptops.

  • Don’t take our word for it. Download the trial.

  • Stack it. Apply the effect, enable the Grain, Halation, and Density modules.

  • Play it. Watch your FPS counter stay locked. We are confident that once you feel the speed of our “One Node” workflow, you won’t want to go back to a messy node tree.

2. Experience True Subtractive Color

Most digital tools are additive (adding saturation makes pixels brighter). Use this trial to test our Movie Density engine.

  • Push the saturation sliders and watch how the colors get deeper and richer, not brighter and neon-like.

  • See the difference between a “video” look and a “film” look instantly.

3. Test the Skin Match AI

Use the trial on your most difficult footage—mixed lighting, weddings, or low-light log shots.

  • Enable the Skin Tone Map.

  • Watch how the “Orange Line” visualizer guides you to perfect skin tones without needing to read complex scopes.


What is Included?

You get unrestricted access to the full 6-in-1 Toolkit:

  • Color Slider & Range Mask: Precise, artifact-free color separation.

  • Movie Density Engine: The secret to cinematic weight.

  • Skin Match AI: Automatic skin tone monitoring and density correction.

  • Film Fade 2.0: Split-tone control for shadows, mids, and highlights.

  • Film Printer Lights (New in v3.5): Create global color casts with Shadow & Skin Protection.

  • Film Texture: GPU-optimized Grain, Halation, and Bloom.


How the Trial Works

  • No Expiration Date: Use it for as long as you like. There is no 7-day or 14-day limit.

  • The Limitation: This version overlays a grid watermark on your Viewer and Final Export. It is designed for testing and learning, not for commercial delivery.

  • Instant Upgrade: If you decide to buy a license later, simply enter your key. The watermark will vanish instantly. You do not need to re-grade your project. Your existing settings will remain perfectly intact.

System Requirements

  • Software: DaVinci Resolve 17, 18, or 19 (Free or Studio).

  • OS: macOS 12+ (Apple Silicon/Intel) or Windows 10/11.

  • Hardware: Optimized for all modern GPUs.

The License Policy

Standardizing seats across all subscription and lifetime tiers.
Please read carefully before purchasing.

Hardware-Locked Licensing Your key is tied to your specific computer hardware until manually deactivated.

1. Master Key Activation

You will receive one master license key. Depending on your tier ($299, $1,199, or $2,249), this key can be used on 1, 5, or 10 unique computers simultaneously.

Seat Management: Agency tiers receive a single key with a 10-seat counter. This simplifies team deployment but requires internal key security.

2. Mandatory Local Deactivation

Deactivation must be performed on the physical machine to free up a license seat.

  • Upgrading Gear: Click "Deactivate" on your old machine before migrating.
  • Server Policy: We cannot remotely reset active seats from our end for security reasons.

3. Hardware Failure

If a computer is stolen or suffers a total motherboard failure before deactivation, that license slot may be permanently lost.

4. Universal Host Access

Your license covers all host applications. Once Adobe and FCP support go live in Q1 2026, your existing key will work across all of them.

2026 Integration Roadmap

"Actually runs smooth on my Air"

Performance Focus

I’m editing on an M2 MacBook Air and usually, adding grain and texture effects kills my playback instantly. Somehow this plugin stays green even with the Film Texture module turned on. It’s super optimized. Being able to grade without rendering cache constantly is a huge win for me.

"The Skin Match map is a lifesaver"

Skin Tone Focus

I shoot weddings and usually deal with terrible mixed lighting at receptions. I used to spend 20 minutes trying to fix skin tones by eye. The 'orange/blue' map overlay in this suite is genius. I just dial it in until the faces turn orange and I know I'm safe without even looking at my scopes. Saved me hours on my last edit.

"Can't beat the $49 sub"

Value Focus

I’m a film student and can't afford the expensive pro tools my professors recommend. The $49/year plan is insane value for what you get. I was worried it would be a 'lite' version but it has the full density engine and texture tools. Highly recommend for anyone starting out who wants that pro look on a budget.

"Density engine is legit"

Technical Focus

I usually build my own subtractive color node trees manually, so I was skeptical. But for commercial jobs where the client needs it yesterday, this is a great tool. The Movie Density engine actually handles the saturation roll-off correctly—it adds weight to the image instead of just blasting brightness like standard digital tools. Good tool to have in the kit.

"Finally, a flexible license"

License Focus

The main reason I bought the lifetime license is the hardware lock system. I use a desktop at home and a laptop on set. I hate buying two separate licenses. I just activated it on both my machines and it works perfectly. Looking forward to the Premiere update next year so I can use it for my corporate gigs too.

"Great plugin, strict on deactivation"

Credibility

The tools are 5 stars, especially the Split Toning fade. But just a heads up—you HAVE to deactivate the license locally before you wipe your computer. I forgot to do it before upgrading my PC and had to contact support. The policy is strict (which I get), just make sure you remember to click that button if you switch gear often. Otherwise, amazing software.

"10-seat license was perfect for us"

Studio License

Equipped our small edit bay (4 suites) with the Studio license. For the price, it was an instant buy. It’s nice having everyone on the team using the same grain and density settings without needing to pass around XMLs or PowerGrades. The presets are actually editable too, which is huge for our workflow.

"Cleaned up my timeline"

Workflow Focus

Simple, effective. I hate node trees that look like spaghetti. Being able to do density, skin, and grain in one OpenFX panel keeps my timeline clean and simple. The 'Smart Presets' are cool too since I can actually tweak the sliders unlike standard LUTs where you're stuck with the look.

"The halation looks real"

Visuals

I'm picky about film emulation. A lot of plugins just put a red glow on the edges and call it halation. This one actually feels organic and reacts to the highlights properly. The bloom effect is subtle too, doesn't look like a cheap filter. Really impressed with the texture module.
