I was messing with the rgb on my module v2 and noticed the LED displayed a purple Hue almost like a filter over the LED, White would be purple, Yellow comes out red and Green turns blue.

Bad LED. Could be bad factory calibration or defected. I'm having the same problem. Some keys are noticeably more pink than others, when set to white. I got a replacement PCB, but it was the same on a new one, just on different keys.

this is definitely some sort of defect. a pinkish tint when fully white would be somewhat expected or possible but this sounds like some issue with how this one specific RGB LED is addressed on your PCB. best to reach out to our support
pearl oasis
I have. Got a new PCB, swapped it and it was the same, just different keys.
I know you cannot achieve a perfect white without RGB-W and it will always have a little pink tone to it, but there is a visible difference on some keys, that are just noticeably more pink

they dont have a balance issue. if you read their post it does the entire wrong color
unless your pcb also gives you red when you set it to yellow this isnt the same issue
pearl oasis
Don't you think it could be the same cause, led bin information?
graceful tartan
no
pearl oasis
oh okay
graceful tartan
getting blue out of green with RGB is not a bin issue
yellow would be red+green, green should thus work so getting blue from green is definitely some led addressing issue or RGB LED defect
the binning usually results in slightly too much red in most cases which would just shift all other colors to also have slightly too much red
pearl oasis
could binning be "updated" with firmware somehow later on, or is this a factory process and therefore permanent?

i fully messed this up. green shouldnt work it seems but setting it to green should involve no blue

yes. it can also be worked around (as some people do already) with rgb software

yeah i'm trying this atm hahaha. So in his case it could be a single dead diode on led if i understand correctly? R G or B in this case, right?
graceful tartan
prob
easiest test is setting it to pure red, green and blue and seeing what happens. (adjusted via the color fields not the 2d color map)
pearl oasis
in my case I couldn't see the difference if I set everything to blue, red, or green, just on white I have a couple randoms being way more pink.
graceful tartan
yes i mean the dead diode with that
