Looking for cards that can convert mana from colour to colour.

Hey all, I was hoping people might know a few cards similar to Orochi Leafcaller or Blood Celebrant which are good for converting mana from one colour to another, for multicoloured decks which focus heavily on producing the one colour.
Cards like Skyshroud Elf are neat, Gemstone Array is alright, but I'm not looking for cards like Knotvine Mystic or the likes that tap as part of the cost.
I think that there may be a way to run a gatherer search for cards that produce mana but specifically don't tap, but I sure don't know how to do it.

Try the site Scryfall - their advanced syntax should let you search for everything with "add mana of any color to pool" without the tap symbol.

Thanks, I might just do that. The above link doesn't seem to be working for me at all.
I'll leave this up though in the meantime, because following those search guidelines could potentially cause me to miss a gem like Skyshroud Elf, who happens to also have a tap ability.

You can turn anything with Bog Initiate or Initiates of the Ebon Hand though I'm not sure if that's exactly what you're after.
Crystalline Crawler might be a better suggestion.
There's also something like Manamorphose, there might be more(?) but that's obviously a bit limited as a spell.
Be interesting to hear what you're planning to do with them.

What is your end goal? Some context might help, rather than people just listing cards willy-nilly.

Oh no, sorry about that, I forgot links with "" in it are a bit wonky...
This should work:
EDIT: Just tested it, it works!

There are about 12 3 cost artifacts that tap to choose colour.

If you are playing Green or any deck containing green cards you can play Joiner Adept. I have it in all my multicolour decks that contain green

This guy was a few years ahead of the release of Jegantha, the Wellspring

I love Jegantha.
I think I was toying around with Cabal Coffers in 3+ colour decks at the time? Apparently forgot to reply again after, whoops.
Thanks for helping me out almost four years ago, folks.
