Hi vitalker,

I confess, I am torn. Your colormap is really cool (I love the gradients) and I tried it the last time you wrote here.
There is one thing that makes me hesitate: I am used to the attribute that something I select is more visible than the unselected. This concerns not only the midi editor, this concerns also tracks, items and so on.
This is what I am used to, my personal workflow (it's hard to make a "I" better visible to underscore it ).
Your colormap is exactly inverted to this (my) habit if I remember correctly. I thought about reverting this but that seemed not that easy (for me) to do. It would take me hours and at the moment I'm a little busy with other things.

But for those who want to change the colormap, there's a solution for this:
In REAPER you can select any colormap you want. (@vitalker, I'm aware you know this but this is for the rest of the world )
How to 1:
In the midi editor => view => color notes by => Load color map from file... => choose a colormap you like
How to 2:
In the preferences go to => MIDI Editor => Default note color map => Browse...

So this is a way for everyone to use his favorite colormap.
