Aha! Thanks for the info.

My solution is/was pretty similiar to your suggestion:

#declare dens_func = function(x,y,z){max( med_fact, pow(x/cont_rad,2) +
pow(z/cont_rad,2) )}

(where cont_rad is the radius of the spherical media container and med_fact is
the lowest value I want used - then all I had to do was increase the intensity
of the media colour and lower med_fact until I got the effect I wanted)
