Converting project to multi-pin

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/FastLED

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • FastLED

    The FastLED library for colored LED animation on Arduino. Please direct questions/requests for help to the FastLED Reddit community: http://fastled.io/r We'd like to use github "issues" just for tracking library bugs / enhancements.

  • Honestly, I don't know. I don't have either MCU. What I do know is that ESP32 code you linked has nothing to do with what happens on the ESP8266. For that MCU you want to be looking in the ESP8266 folder.

  • FastLED-esp32

    Parallel outputs for esp32

  • I found this repo https://github.com/eshkrab/FastLED-esp32

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • ESP32ParallelFastLED

    Uses FastLED on eight channels as seen at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36js4mPaTGg

  • I had the bright idea of searching on github, and found this. Maybe try some of those pins?

  • FastLED

    The main FastLED library (successor to FastSPI_LED). Please direct questions/requests for advice to the g+ community - http://fastled.io/+ - we'd like to keep issues to just tracking bugs/enhancements/tasks. *NOTE* library work is currently on hold - see https://plus.google.com/102282558639672545743/posts/JQKcujjaXXC for details.

  • So that didn't work. I uninstalled the FastLED library, installed the library from https://github.com/samguyer/FastLED that has the "experimental parallel driver" code, that still didn't make a difference, still only lights from pin 15 and nothing from pin 12, 13, or 14 (I've switched it around and recompiled). I went back to the real FastLED library.

  • DemoReel100

  • All that aside, I tweaked the DemoReel100 https://github.com/withanhdammit/DemoReel100/blob/main/DemoReel100.ino and one strip did not work. So then I started looking closer at the wiring and discovered a small reversal in two wires.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
