Leave a Review Gel Swatch Library
Very useful
I've used this program on my last two designs, and I must say it has saved me so much time. The colour accuracy on the screen obviously can't replace the real thing, but for a quick look up, the speed and ease of searching can't be beat. The ability to find similar colours is great, although not quite perfect in my opinion.
Next I would love to see a similar app for gobos.Show lessBergmann
Invaluable!!!
I used the heck out of this app this past week. A touring company sent me their rider with 3 different brands of gel on their lighting sheets. I was able to quickly cross-reference each color and get the colors close enough to keep them happy. I had most of what they wanted but not quite the same brand. What they wanted in Rosco I had in Lee and what they wanted in Lee I had in Gam or Rosco. I don't have the budget (rather, a budget at all) to accomodate every touring group that comes here. This helped me do just that with what I had in my inventory. Thanks, guys, and I'll stop by your booth at USITT and thank you personally.Show lessjimbo45
very useful app
I have been surprised with how many times I actually have used this app. I find that the similar gels feature is the most useful, and having the CMY and RGB values of each color is great when attempting to match a color mixing source to a specific gel color. However, I agree with the other reviews about the order of Rosco gels being screwed up, and needing to include Apollo gels. Please update this app, I paid $10 for it, I think I deserve an update.Show lessariherzig
Great idea with a few flaws
Lost 1 star for the way rosco gel is ordered (make it the same as the swatchbook) and another star for the lack of Apollo. Fix those and it's a 5-star app.EricJLarson
CaptainFracker is on to something here...
There are no expected extremes in todays technology, nor should one expect an iphone app. to replace real world. This app. was a good idea and offers a lot of people (including myself) a relative quick reference for industry colors on-the-fly. Thank you Wybron. But Fracker is right. Until I read ALL of the reviews, i didn't realize who I now know he definitely does not work for... Well then, "spank me pink".Show lessBKRickets
Useful, more headway to be made
It's useful, but add Apollo! The ability to cross compare any two gels, not just similar and complementary is something I'd like to see. I've already begun using it in show, it's been really handy. Hard to compare gel color in cue to cue darkness, the spectrograph is invaluable!Doctor Dan
Good Overall
Like the program - needs improvement. I am curious why when asking for similar colors in cto it doesn't compare similarly titled colors between Lee, Rosco and Gam.maxmetro
A few suggestions
Small wish list item: the ability to compare any two colors, not just the suggested similar colors and compliments.
Big wish list item: suggested gel colors based on color picker type criteria. For example: more saturated, less green, etc.jbenghiat
Best $10 i've spent on here so far
Great App....does exactly what they say it does. I'm a lighting designer and i have to say its nice not having to carry around all my gel books, when really all I need is the waveform and the transmission %. Saying that be careful about picking colors based on how they look on the screen...but then again if you need that warning thus app is not for you. Hope they bring Apollo to us in the future, but the app is worth the money with just Rosco, GAM, and Lee.Show lessmaxwell.bowman
FANTASTIC APP for lighting
