If I have the RGB Curves for example of Kodachrome. How I can know how these RGB or CMYK curves works together. Is there a more detailed , 3D representation of it.
Or a color mix function ?
Thank you ,

K is a black channel, you must mean cmy and rgb, I will ponder this question and may have to ask Dinesh my mentor this question.

Yes, it is colour mixing. Kodachrome is slide transparency film. So transmitted colours are mixed.Quote:

We perceive Yellow when Red and Green light are mixed. We also perceive Yellow when light in the yellow frequency range is radiated. This means that there are several combinations available to produce many colours. This is called "metamerism" and uses "metamers".
In printed material, colour is reflected and so it is subtractive. Yellow is part of the CMY primary colours. It reflects yellow light. Just how that is constituted depends on the actual ink used.
In a transparency film, colour is produced by filtration, so it is subtractive. The filter subtracts (blocks) light. White light has all frequencies (all colours). The white light of the light table or projector is filtered by the slide. Where the Yellow layer and the Magenta layer are both present (have Y and M tones in that area) they together filter out light to give the perception of Red.
Perhaps understanding the relationship between CMY (Cyan/Magenta/Yellow) and RGB (Red/Green/Blue) would help.
White light is composed of Red, Green, and Blue light.
If you remove the Red, you end up with Green + Blue which equals Cyan, so Cyan = minus Red
If you remove the Green, you end up with Red + Blue which equals Magenta, so Magenta = minus Green
If you remove the Blue, you end up with Red + Green which equals Yellow, so Yellow = minus Blue
This is how filters work.
If you look at a white light through a Magenta filter, you see Red plus Blue, which is called Magenta.
If you then add a Cyan filter, so you're looking at the light through both filters one on top of the other, you only see Blue, because the Magenta subtracts the Green, and Cyan subtracts the Red.
This is the way color slide films work. The filters in an enlarger color printing head work the same way.

BTW, the reason the Black (K) channel is added to form CMYK is that you can't get a clean black by combining the three subtractive primaries.
My question is totally different. For example , autochrome , there are 6 different colors at the filter. I ve posted the dyes. Dyes have a spectrum curve. And there is a published only RGB curve analysis of Autochrome.
How can we calculate from these dye curves or RGB curves , how a RGB xyz color transforms at the film x2y2z2.
And how can we see this transform at a graphic.
Above posted software link , may be relates with this question but I dont know it solves the problem
Those are density curves, right? To interpret those in a regular colour space (say, Lab), you need to know the spectral properties of the dies.Quote:

Actually it must be "dies", is more "spectral" ;)
