Separate RGB earns its place in the aescripts library for isolating the RGB channels so each can be moved, distorted, blurred or faded on its own, with per-channel lens distortion for chromatic aberration.
Separate RGB is a plugin from Rowbyte that works on the red, green and blue channels of an image separately. You can move, rotate, scale, blur, blend, fade and distort each channel independently inside After Effects and Premiere Pro.
The plugin includes a Lens Distortion control applied per channel for chromatic aberration, and it automatically grows boundaries. Compatibility reaches from After Effects CS6 through the 2025 release, and Premiere Pro from CS6 through the 2020 release.
The current version is 2.7.5, released on April 21, 2025, which fixed version mismatch errors. Earlier updates added MFR support in After Effects and Apple Silicon support for Premiere, along with several floating license server compatibility updates. Separate RGB is listed here as free, and a demo video is available.
Separate RGB is best for artists working with chromatic aberration and independent red, green and blue channel manipulation in After Effects and Premiere Pro.
Separate RGB is completely free to download and use.
Separate RGB runs in After Effects from CS6 through the 2025 release, covering CC, CC 2014, CC 2015, CC 2015.3, CC 2017, CC 2018, CC 2019, and the 2020 through 2025 versions. That span makes it usable across a wide range of installations, both older projects and current ones. For the exact list and any newer additions beyond 2025, check the developer's page on aescripts before installing so you can confirm the build matches your setup.
Separate RGB is compatible with Premiere Pro from CS6 through the 2020 release, including CC, CC 2014, CC 2015, CC 2015.3, CC 2017, CC 2018 and CC 2019. A past update also added Apple Silicon support for Premiere. Note that the Premiere compatibility list stops at 2020, so if you run a newer Premiere Pro build, confirm current support on the developer's page before relying on it in a project.
Separate RGB is listed here as free. Licensing and availability can change over time, so for the current terms check the developer's page on aescripts. The plugin's update history includes several floating license server compatibility updates, so if you need details on floating or multi-seat licensing, the developer's page is the place to confirm what applies to your particular download.
Separate RGB 2.7.5, released on April 21, 2025, fixed version mismatch errors.

Version 2.7.1 added MFR support in After Effects along with Apple Silicon support for Premiere. For the full changelog, see the developer's page on aescripts.
