Purge more when new filament is replacing a dark filament?

I just printed the 5 color Minion Dave yesterday, and I'm noticing dark bands in the yellow body in two places where there is a black feature on the same layers. Any way to say "after this filament, purge twice as much"? Or do I have to make it purge twice as much for all filaments? The bands intersect the black button on his jeans and his mouth:

Look for the "Purge Volumes" button under the printer selection on the main page of Prusaslicer. Here you can tune purges between different filaments. I have my white filament purge more when coming from colors. Probably want to set up the same for your yellow when coming from black.

I'll check it out. I'm working on a small test print now I can use to see the banding, so I should be able to figure out how much to adjust things by making some test prints. Thanks.
