Nagra has consistently been "strange" in their color coding, Michael.
We use blue for left (it has an "l" in it so that old timers can
remember which is which) and green for right (has an "r" in it =96 old
timers, again). Whatever coding system you use, just be consistent so
it can be replicated. Otherwise there's no authority other than
precedent (of which there are several to choose from).
