Additional MIDI Output Color Maps

Post by Arvol »

With V6 out now and the options for MIDI output velocity for color feedback on our controllers, I wanted to submit a color map I created for the MIDI Fighter Twister.

I'm hoping once all the bugs get worked out of the Beta, a few months down the road, We can start submitting, testing, and confirming hardware color maps for future updates, so we can get a nice pretty GUI of colors when selecting our output velocities (Just like the APC40 currently has, built into V6).

Here's one I created for the MIDI Fighter Twister:

If anyone else would like to start making these for your controllers, I think this could be a very useful tool for other users to reference when programming their controllers.

Also, If anyone would like to test and confirm this map, I would love some feedback on it as well.

Thanks.

So does this chart mean there's a linear interpolation between cyani-ish on velocity 18 to dark green on velocity 32? So every velocity has a slightly different shade?

Or does it do the same shade of cyan between 18-32?

Correct on the linear interpolation. It slightly changes for each value. It mixes RGB values slightly differently for each value.

I haven't created a table such as yours but for the midi fighter Spectra the values are as follows:

0 - Bright Blue
1-12 - Off
13-18 - Bright Red
19-24 - Dark Red
25-30 - Bright Orange
31-36 - Dark Orange
37-42 - Bright Yellow
43-48 - Dark Yellow
49-66 - Bright Green (With slight hue shift from lower to higher values)
67-72 - Dark green
73-90 - Bright Blue (With slight hue shift from lower to higher values)
91-96 - Dark Blue
97-102 - Bright Purple
103-108 - Dark Purple
109-114 - Bright Pink
115-120 - Dark Pink
102-127 - White

The bright/dark refers to the brightness of the LED not to the colour.

Hope this saves someone else a bit of time!
