I could render it down, but that’s very time-consuming (particularly as I’m looking to make this effect about 3-6 frames long in total, but happening more than once a second), and I don’t think I could make the white less bright without also muting the colours.

That’s what I mean, I was missing the obvious thing of using the right tool for the job.
Thanks again.

It was just me being stupid and missing something obvious, then. Thanks.

I’ve figured out a way to do it.
Make 4 copies of the track and set the top 3 to “Screen”. Then use the “Channel Blend” effect on the first three tracks using the presets for “red only”, “green only” and “blue only”. You then have to play around with the brightness and saturation in order to make the clip look as it once did.
Which now leaves me with another question for another topic.

Ah, that sounds like a better idea. I’ll give that a go, thanks.

That’s a shame. That’s going to require a pen and paper, then.
Thanks.

I’ve figured out one way to do it, but it’s not terribly elegant. First turn the clip black and white, then use the Chroma Keyer to replace the black with the gradient you want underneath the black. Render that out as a file. Then change the gradient for the one you want underneath the white and change the Key colour to white. Render that out as a file. There’s now one file that’s black and rainbow, and one that’s white and rainbow. Load both back in, layer them on top of each other, and use the Chroma Keyer to make the non-rainbow colour of the top clip transparent.
It’s doable like that, but I can’t help but think there’s a more elegant solution somewhere.
