Does anyone know how to achieve this effect in capture one or know if there are any good presets out there?

I found a site that describes how they do it but I just dont seem to be able to get the colours right with capture one

  i am looking for same tones..key is to desaturate greens and yellows.
  the issue is, that the HSL colours in C1 aren't exactly same set as in LR.
  A. Flemming explained in his blog and created as well preset which you can download and use, this preset contains the LR colors for adjust..

  I'd do it like this:
  
  1st:
  * Make all the adjustments to create 'normal' image.
  * Create a mask-filled layer.
  * Make all the adjustments you need go create that 'earthy' look you like.
  * Save the layer adjustments as user style ('Layers'-tool, 3-dots-menu).
  
  All future images:
  * Make all the adjustments to create 'normal' image.
  * Create a mask-filled layer.
  * Apply the layer adjustments from the user style ('Layers'-tool, 3-dots-menu).
  
  This way you can achieve a reproducible effect, because the style doesn't change the adjustments already made on the base image.
  
  I gave it a brief try, just out of curiosity. I got pretty close already with quick r+g+b levels (middle point), saturation, contrast and a tiny tweak in the color editor (advanced).
  
  
  Regards,
  Hans
  
  
  * Edited for typo correction: brightness => contrast.

  Start with a Linear curve in the Base Characteristics.
  
  Use the Colour Balance tool.
  
  Add red/orange to taste in the Dark and Mid range. Add blue in the High range.
  
  Adjust the lightness slider to taste (probably down).
  
  If you want to add this on a layer for additional flexibility. Add multiple layers for further refinement.
  
  The "right" colours are a matter of personal choice, especially when they are being manipulated.
  
  In my past experience it is possible to produce a similar effect by processing for edit in sRGB colour space and printing setting output to AdobeRGB (or maybe it was the opposite) but I did not think the results were an enhancement.
  
  There are, no doubt, a thousand other ways to address your request.
  
  
  HTH.

  You're welcome.
  
  There's nothing to stop you using another tool to mute the greens.
  
  The image I played with started out over exposed and whilst green was present it was not overly intense.
  
  It should not be too difficult to tone down just the greens using one of the several tools available. Which one is best may be down to personal preferences and the data for the image.
