Even though these calibrations are supposed to calibrate for "luminance", I tend to turn my monitor down 2-4 stops to match a standard calibration chart that I've printed on my printer. Then I adjust in CC or LR on a monitor that has been darkened by the above process. Seems really dumb, but it works... Best, Bob PS-Please let me know if you find out differently!
