No, I don't have it.

I have mapped musical keys to colors in the past, but that was on purpose as an ear traning thing.
The didn't evoke colors in my mind, I chose a color that I thought suited each key.

I suspect that Eddie Van Halen has it though. The whole thing about his rig and tone set up, he called it his 'Brown' sound.

There doesn't appear to be any pattern, any rhyme or reason, for what color is attached to what sound, though. It varies from person to person.

French Horn may be yellow to you, while it could be pink to another person with the same neurological condition.

I do think I have it, though. when I hear Cookie Monster vocals, it feels like someone is stomping on my toe, I see red, & I smell fresh feces.

:lol:

Colors? That is nuts.

However, I do have a color organ that I designed some time ago. It separates frequency's with phase locked loops. 6 colors per band. Mid / high / and lows. Tuned to every other note within a band. To it music is colored.

I'm just a redneck. :wink:

I don't " see " auras. But I do sense energies.
Some people just make my trigger finger itch.

Its not like an aura, although the guy in the video would have it seem that way.

And philbymon is right, it differs from person to person, and the colors, experiences, and triggers all differ. He's also right about cookie monster vocals. Although I think any REAL vocalist would experience the same thing. :)

gtZip brings up the "brown sound" thats interesting to me because only acoustic instruments can be any shade of brown to me. Making the tone of an electric become brown, even with all these effect pedals I think would be impossible.
