Search TipsDeepColorCorrect
This is a ColorCorrect node for deep compositing. It applies the color correction to all samples at each pixel. You can use DeepColorCorrect to create a matte by setting the gain value for your alpha channel to 0 and setting the offset value to 1 in the range you want the matte for.
There are control sets for adjusting shadows, midtones and highlights. You can use the lookup curves on the Ranges tab to control these.
