Lemur color via osc max

I am having some really trouble figuring out what it is I need to send the lemur for a color value.
the swatch object and the color picker done seem to send a value I can use. I have tried to set rgb expressions to do the equation in real time as well. any help would be great, I'm sure I'm just missing something simple.

the goal is to get visual feedback based of frequence so as the freq shifts I can shift the color smoothly to red then add blue based on another varaible just to get better vital communication.

thoughts?

the rub equation is below if that will help.
((Rx2^16)+(Gx2^8)+B)

Hi, you don't state which objects you'll be controlling?

Anyway, as an example, and I hope I write the code properly, you could do:


1) Enable "multicolor" on a Pad array in the lemur editor.
2) Send it "/Pads colors yourvaluehere", where the value is based on this aforementioned formula.

This is very trickily documented, so it makes sense that it's difficult to suss like that.
