FastLED + Sound-reactive visualisers + beat detection + 180fps on a single Arduino?
I rewrote it using Fixed Point math and now it only takes about 8% CPU. https://github.com/ben-xo/vu2/blob/master/PeckettIIRFixedPoint.cpp

Scroll rgb bit map array
I had something to scroll sprites in an offscreen bitmap a while ago. I posted a video here, check out if that look like what you need.

LEDSprites: possible to convert BMP image sequence to sprite frames?
It's a pet project for ESP8266, I'm refactoring in a library here https://github.com/lyriarte/StripDisplay but I removed the SPIFFS dependency so this version doesn't open files. Hopefully that should help.
