Open .RMD files on your Mac.

.RMD

The grade and camera settings RED stores next to an .R3D clip: ISO, white balance, gamma and color space at a glance.

Loper is a free, minimal editor for macOS that opens RED metadata sidecar (.RMD) instantly and colors every part of the file, so you find the value you need at a glance and can fix it right there. No IDE, no project to load, no gray wall of text.
