Use the location field.
Make two points the same value. That way there is no transition between points.
Add an additional colour stop. In your second screenshot, the right stop is actually two at exactly the same spot.

I used this method to create a slight blend between the colors. Red at 0%, Red at 18% Purple at 20%, Purple at 38% Yellow at 40%, Yellow at 58% Green at 60%, Green at 78% Blue at 80%, Blue at 100% Thanks.
A different approach would be to use a live paint object. I achieved the hard stops I needed by using lines to cut through a shape and just fill the sliced areas with the colors you need.
