What controller to use for 9 channels?
I came here from NightDriver, which uses FastLED on ESP32 to drive ARGB strips using RMT. As far as I understand using RMT is specific to ESP32 and there's a hardware limitation of 8 channels.
- I made a 32 Band LED Audio Spectrum Analyser. I’ve put a link of the full video tutorial with the GitHub repo below in the 1st comment. Cheers.

How is the white light quality of the addressable sk6812 RGBW?
Also nightdriver is a new framework for esp32 boards that has a whole lot of great features! https://github.com/PlummersSoftwareLLC/NightDriverStrip

Multiple RGB outputs
Sweet. Then pretty much any arduino or other microcontroller would take care of what you need. The strips only take one output pin plus power and ground so just about everything will work for driving them. They act like a long shift register so the single pin is all that's needed to load the full strip with whatever patterns you want regardless of the length. You just have to tell it how many LEDs there are in total is all. Check out the FastLED library. You can learn more about it there and/or install the library in the IDE by pressing "ctrl shift I" for windows or "command shift I" for mac and search for it in the upper search area and install it right there. It comes with working examples too so all you would have to do is install the library, load one of the new example sketches that came with it, and probably edit the example to change the NUM_LEDS count to match what you're working with.
