I hope you aren't going to do all that, else we'll end up with another

You might want to consider a HSL control. Hue and saturation are one of the
controls I most often need to tweak in PS when working with 16-bit Vuescan
scans in PS. But don't do it for me, I prefer to work in PS with the full
res scan rather than off a preview. The history list is a wonderful thing
:)
BTW I was scanning 20yr old TriX negs yesterday and the TMax100 0.55
setting worked well.
