Ciao Andrey, believe me: I understand your frustration but I can assure dt can give you optimal results with no pain. Its GUI can intimidate many users because it is "Linux style" (RT imitate LR so it is more friendly to many people) but you cannot have power with a 'single slider' interface... Moreover you can find on https://dtstyle.net/ a lot of presets that can help you to reach a particular result but also can help you to understand how modules and sliders work. It is understood you can choose to use the raw developer you prefer, and it is understood dt needs a little more time with study and trials. Have a nice day, Maurizio
