don't have the details at hand, but they were standard osram 

Whereever they sell dimmeable fluorescent tubes, they will also sell 

they took 0-10v, if i remember correctly.

I wouldn't recommend DIY as this is high-voltage and fluorescent tubes 

tubes have fixed colours, yes, but there are balanced red, green and 

blue tubes around made for additive colour mixing.

circular tubes of changing colours sounds like rgb led-strips, lots of 

different types of those coming out now..

I had a friend build a custom device for 8 TL tubes for me, using a 

Doepfer MIDI-to-analog unit controlling a bunch of relays. If you're 

dealing with tubes that are 40 watts or less, it would probably be 

cheaper to build something which controlled relays, rather than
