  • vu2

    Arduino Sound Reactive Lights. Line-in audio -> beat and tempo detection -> 8 visualisers. For 1 Arduino and up to 100 lights.

  • 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

  • FastLED

    The main FastLED library (successor to FastSPI_LED). Please direct questions/requests for advice to the reddit community - http://fastled.io/r - we'd like to keep issues to just tracking bugs/enhancements/tasks. *NOTE* major library work is currently on hold (by ben-xo)

  • More cli() sei() points during writing out bits to the WS2812s. They would probably mess with other features I’m not using (such as the clock correction) - I forked and pushed my changes to https://github.com/ben-xo/FastLED none the less. If your interrupt handlers are very short, then this doesn’t disturb the light timing enough for the colours to go haywire. One of my interrupts just reads samples into a buffer, another counts frames, the third toggles LED pins for PWM. You have to offset the timers so they don’t fire at once - but it works!
