Neither, really.

After this, if I install another color-changing light, I’ll again go through the trouble of setting up one with ‘dumb’ analog controls for it. The other LED light in my room simply has three knobs that can be adjusted – one each for red, blue, and green. It was significantly more expensive, and had to be wired up by hand, but after trying both I very much prefer that kind of control.
