BLUEEEE Re: [sdiy] Latest project completed!

[s]

from what I could see, there were 3 LEDs on the
panel... I don't think making them blue would be
irritating at all.  Why did you find them annoying to
begin with? was it that they were hyperbright when the
reds were not? I wouldn't think it would really matter
color-wise one way over the other, unless one was way
bright and the other was not. I know red light
highlights edges and contours (contrasty type stuff) 
and blue light is easier/more relaxing to the eyes,
but that's more in the sense of room lighting or scene
lighting...

I'm curious. 

Either way, I think three blue LEDs on a blue PPGwave
panel with blue modwheels is just a sexy concept! When
I finally own my own PPGWave, I'll be implementing
that arrangement as soon as I can possibly sort it
out...

late. tired. g'nite!
