# Color Select

The color select menu allows you to customize the colorset of the current mode. A colorset is a collection of colors that your Vortex Device uses to create light patterns. By changing the colorset, you can alter the appearance of your mode without altering it's blinking style or speed.
The Color Select menu allows you to customize the colorset of your current mode. A colorset is a collection of colors that your Vortex Device uses to create light patterns. By changing the colorset, you can alter the appearance of your mode without altering its blinking style or speed.

## How it Works
## Overview

When you enter the Color Select menu, you will be able to select a color slot. Each slot represents a color in the colorset. There will always be max 8 slots for colors on every device.
- **Colorset**: A group of up to 8 colors used to create light patterns.
- **Color Slot**: A position within the colorset that holds a single color.
- **Adjustment Parameters**: Hue, Saturation, and Value (brightness) that define each color.

When selecting a slot you will only see the slots currently in the colorset plus an additional blinking slot to indicate whether to add a new color to the set. This blinking slot will not be available if there is already 8 colors in the set.

After selecting a slot, you can adjust the hue, saturation, and value (brightness) of the color in that slot. This allows you to create virtually any color you can imagine. The process of selecting the hue, saturation and value is slightly different on each device.
## How It Works

### Entering the Menu

When you access the Color Select menu, you’ll see a series of color slots. Each slot represents a color in the colorset. There will always be a maximum of 8 slots available on any device.

### Adding a New Color

If your colorset has fewer than 8 colors, you’ll see an additional blinking slot. This slot lets you add a new color to the colorset. Keep in mind that this blinking slot disappears once the maximum of 8 colors is reached.

### Adjusting Colors

After selecting a slot, you can adjust the hue, saturation, and brightness (value) of the color. This lets you create almost any color you can imagine. The process of adjusting these settings varies slightly depending on the device you’re using.

## Deleting Colors

If you want to delete a color from the colorset simply cycle to the respective slot then hold down the button till the led glows red and/or blinks red. Release the button while the led is glowing red and it will delete the color from the colorset.
### How to Delete a Color

To delete a color from the colorset, navigate to the slot of the color you want to remove. Hold down the button until the LED glows or blinks red. Release the button while the LED is red to delete the color.

If you delete all colors from the colorset the mode will be blank and appear like the device is off, it is not advised to do this.
### Important Note

If all colors are deleted from the colorset, the mode will appear blank as if the device is off. It’s not recommended to delete all colors from a mode.
