I'm quite happy with split toning effects in mono (not that I ever really do this) but am trying to work out how to do it with colour images. So far, no luck. Any suggestions?
If I understand correctly what you try to achieve, the Color Balance tool is your friend. Try the 3-Way tab, and play with the Shadow / Midtone / Highlight wheels to your liking.
If you want to achieve the most control over the tonal transitions, then I'd recommend to mix it with the Luma mask as Jim recommended.
