Please add Amber to the colorspace

Post by Oaktown »

Can you please add an RGBA colorspace (A for Amber not Alpha) to the next R5 patch?

Also it'd be great to have the ability to program a fixture from scratch by using R, G, B, A, W, C, M & Y parameters just in case the right colorspace is not available from the drop down menu.

Heh. We must have missed RGBA.

Customisation of every possible combination is a bit tricky, because the channels for each colorspace are calculated differently based on which other channels are in the colorspace. There is little to no documentation on this subject, which means we have to come up with our own math for each colorspace based on the test fixtures we have in the office.

You can always let us know which colorspaces you're missing.

An RGBA colorspace where A stands for alpha would be amazing btw. Does that mean it can make your fixture invisible?

Sorry for the confusion but I meant Alpha as Luminance the same way Luminair does.
