Color mixing is another important aspect of light board design. Many modern lighting systems use RGB (Red, Green, Blue) or CMY (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) color mixing, allowing designers to create virtually any color in the spectrum. Light boards provide tools to mix colors smoothly, adjusting the balance between the primary colors to achieve the desired effect. The ability to control color on the fly enables designers to match lighting to specific themes, emotions, or even synchronize with multimedia elements like projections or video.
