Push 3 controller and problem with pad color

Post by PhilipKD » Fri Dec 05, 2025 12:41 pm

Hello

Since the last update (I think), some pads that should be white are slightly darker (or colored).
Have other users noticed this?

Do you mean there's colour discrepancies between pads, or that the general hue is different (but consistent across all pads)?

Yes, there are color variations between the pads (some are more pink, others brown, grayish, etc.)
It happened very suddenly

Ok, then ask Support, they should be able to help you re-calibrating the pads.

Thank you for your replies.I was surprised by the suddenness, extent, and diversity of the deviations. Support provided me with a recalibration tool, but it wasn't straightforward; it took me several hours to achieve a reasonably satisfactory result. The tool can only correct seven groups of pads, and the color changes are abrupt and lack continuity. The tool should be improved to allow for individual pad correction and smoother color transitions.

Ok.
You're welcome to send your feedback/requests about the calibration tool to Support :wink:
