Lee Filters

Hi All,

 

I am not sure of there is such thing in existence, but I am in need of a sheet (or many sheets) that have all the lee colours listed and tell me the DMX Values to make the colour by use of CMY. I mean something like this...

 

L101 - Cyan 156, Magenta - 056, Yellow 255.

 

The list would tell me which DMX value for each wheel so I can make that specific lee colour. (The above is just an example, I am not expecting it to make L101!)

 

Does anybody know of such thing? Or even know what I am talking about??

 

Thanks,

There is no definitive conversion as obviously every fixture is different (some very) and lamp type must also be considered. But they can be used as a rough starting point.

 

Search CMY chart or CMY conversion. Many of the links are dead. Here's a partial list for a Mac 600: http://www.stormlighting.co.uk/uploaded/VC440ccbae91e36.pdf

The differences in light sources and dichroics mean that the values to achieve a match for a particular colour will differ fairly widely from fixture to fixture - there's no universal table of values that you can apply to any fixture.

 

I'd have thought someone in a sales and technical support role with a company who deal with automated lighting would've known that, Joe :) :unsure:.

Apologies Gareth, the answer was obvious that it varies depending on the light source behind it. It has been a long day!!

 

Never the less, thanks for the links guys.

 

Best Regards,
