Behavior
Increasing the hue value changes the color to blue tones. Decreasing the hue value changes the color to red
tones. For best v iewing, set the lightness to 50. Higher numbers tend to wash out the color and lower
numbers can darken the color and make it difficult to see. Lower saturation values reduce the amount of
color displayed in the waveform. Higher saturation values increase the amount of color.
