your lack of knowledge how to use curves and the other features of PS does 
not mean PS is inferior to whatever else prog
it means you  have-not spent the time understanding how to use the options
and OTOH if ACDC is so fantastic or this task JUST USE IT INSTEAD

in either RAW dialog and/or LAB MODE
you can work with gamma only

in curves in LAB also

make sure to use the advanced dialog inthe shad/highlight dialog

and PS since 4.0 you can save any setting
in any dialog
