3.9 Color Selection

Introduction

While using MADRIX, you will encounter various ways to choose a color set-up, mostly for effects

or fades. This section describes them in more detail. Please keep in mind that MADRIX mainly

works with the RGB color model. Each channel, red, green, and blue, can be defined using a value

between 0 and 255, ie. using 'no color' to 'maximum extent'.

Simple Color Selection

Often, you will find 4 input fields representing the 4 color channels: Red, Green, Blue, and White.

The white channel only applies if RGBW fixtures are used. If you are only 1-channel fixtures, all

channels except the first channel will be disabled.

Simply enter a particular value between 0 and 255 in the fields displayed.

Use the spacebar once to set a value instantly to 0 or 255. Perform a left-click into a value field

and continue to hold the mouse button. Then, move your mouse up or down to adjust the value

as well.

Here are some examples:

White - 255, 255, 255

Black - 0, 0, 0

Red - 255, 0, 0

Green - 0, 255, 0

Blue - 0, 0, 255
