If you're talking audio, I've no idea.

For written work, I've always liked Ursula Le Guin's prosaic adaptation. Jane English's translation is a great one too, but less prose.

"Pure Orange" is generally:

  • red: 100%
  • green: 50%
  • blue: 0%

So a linear equivalent in hex to that extremely dark red would be: #0F0800

However, perceptual colour rules are rarely so simple. The correct way for any colour would be to do a mathematical transformation to HSV, make the hue shift from 0° (red) to 30° (orange), and transform it back. Surprise, you get the same value.
