Using DxoPureRaw from another software other than Adobe : ON1

DxO PureRAW
1

Hello Hello

DxoPureRaw 5 is amazing for noise reduction.

I would like to use PureRaw from ON1 Photo Raw Max 2026.

I used to manage and edit my photo from ON1. (On1 is good for masking)

Would someone be able to tell me how to set up ON1 to call PureRaw?

So that I can continue working in ON1, perform noise reduction with PureRaw, and return to ON1 when I’m done with the noise reduction?

Thanks in advance.

Pure Raw uses the original RAW files.

Don’t forget that PureRAW only works with RAW files on the input side and creates TIFF, DNG or JPG for onward processing. In other words, a total different file

Thank you for your answer.

I use PureRaw to denoise raw file then I export into an DNG format file then I open the DNG file with ON1. Et voilà ! It works ! :wink:

But I want to setup parameters in ON1 or PureRaw in order to work from ON1 as usual and call PureRaw from ON1.

I don’t want to open PureRaw denoise in PureRaw export in DNG then close PureRaw. Then open ON1 and work on the DNG file, and so on…

I want to work and edit with ON1 then call PureRaw from ON1 only for denoising then continue my workflow in ON1

I’m not familiar with this software but I want to use ON1 as a host and Pure Raw as a plugin ! :slight_smile:

One of the reasons why DxO denoising is best in its class is that has to be the very first process to touch the RAW file. Only then can you do anything else to the created non-RAW file

In my editing software, I can set up PureRAW as an external editor. I then select images in the editor to be processed and PreRAW opens automatically for me to process them. I haven’t done the round trip, though: I save to another folder as DNG, then navigate to that in my editor and take it from there.

Ok thank you

Denoising is my first step in my workflow. I just open ON1, then call PureRaw form on1 for denoising then I continue my workflow into ON1

What is your external editor ?

I don’t know for sure but I believe she uses Affinity Photo 2.

See @AliGW’s post below.

@stuck No, you’re right - you don’t know! :rofl:

@BildEric I use ACDSee Photo Studio Ultimate 2026 as my main photo editor. DxO PureRAw 5 is the external editor (set up from within ACDSee).
