Implement Microphone Equalizer Animation for Ws2812
Opened this issue · 3 comments
There should be good projects around to get ideas from. In best case we can just clone and own. But whats the exact naming of our LED stripes? is it ws2812B?
I see, we use FastLED, so this repo seems promising:
https://github.com/atuline/FastLED-Demos
comes with a lot of sound examples, however:
Microphones
If you go out and buy one of those cheap sound sensors from aliexpress, you will be sorely disappointed. The Sparkfun MEMS microphone includes an amplifier (with a gain of 67db), which provides a line in signal that's adequate for the Arduino works fine. Those sound sensors don't. You have been warned.
I hope we also bought one with amplifier 👍
Clone and own is not possible in our case, because we do not need a regular equalizer. By the fact that we want to use the colors of the drops to visualize the sensored sound and not just use a standard LED equalizer. We need to create our own stroboscopic equalizer effect with the correct duty cycle to archive the colored water drops. I dont think there are already projects who implemented this ;)
