> This page covers the **Ramp node** of the Redshift renderer in **Cinema 4D**. It maps an input coordinate onto a color gradient — driving color transitions from UVs, positions or any scalar; for pure values the Scalar Ramp is the counterpart.

This shader node maps an input coordinate to a color gradient. If you only want to output a floating point value, you should look at the [Scalar Ramp](https://help.maxon.net/c4d/en-us/Content/html/COM_REDSHIFT3D_REDSHIFT4C4D_NODES_CORE_RSSCALARRAMP.html.md) instead.
