So What If You Are Color Blind?
You will be happy to know that we are close to solving that persistent visual anomaly in our visual music color system and color-coded musical instrument sticker guides, so that you can still visually see every single note by using the shades of the colors you primarily see (i.e. due to the varying lower or non-degrees of red, green or blue visual perception).
These are the three main types of Genetic Anopia, or the inability to see certain specific colors due to missing cones in the eye. There are also people with Achromatopsia or Monochromacy, or the inability to see color at all, and only in shades of black to white due to a higher amount of missing cones. We are close to solving this in a new product we're designing for those with Protanopia, Deuteranopia, Tritanopia, Achromatopsia or Monochromacy.
The first color swatch below is what everyone will look at but not necessarily what everyone will see, so if you are color blind, this is the swatch you should look at to see if all color hues are visible and discernible from one another.
7 True Colors That Can Be Perceived Normally
& Are Discernible By Those With Color Blindness
No Missing Color Cones - Can See All Color Hues
Red, Orange, Yellow, Mint, Cyan, Azure, Blue
These colors are what is actually printed and physically distributed to represent all the 12 musical notes found in the Musical Colors Visual Music Color System, where both are similar at first, then deviate from one another starting at Green.
Swatch Examples For Those With Protanopia, Deuteranopia & Tritanopia
The three following color swatches are so that people who are not color blind can see what color blind people actually see when looking at the true color swatch above, depending on their physical eye affliction. When color blind people look at the following three swatches, one of them will appear identical to the first swatch above, and which will confirm the type of anopia you have.
7 Colors Perceived For Those With Protanopia
Missing Red Cones - Cannot See Red Hues
Army, Ochre, Yellow, Sunny, Grey, Lavender, Blue
7 Colors Perceived For Those With Deuteranopia Missing Green Cones - Can-t See Green Hues Brown, Honey, Sepia, Peach, Lilac, Azure, Blue
7 Colors Perceived For Those With Tritanopia
Missing Blue Cones - Cannot See Blue Hues
Red, Rose, Pink, Sky, Arctic, Teal, Ocean
Those with Achromatopsia or Monochromacy have total color blindness and can only see shades of Grey, Black, and White. If you are one of these people, there are still ways to use musical instrument note sticker guides. We will be releasing one soon based on the following grey scale color schema and your feedback. Let us know further below if this swatch matches your grey scale perception of any of the other color swatches provided below for those with partial color-blindness.
