Download the gui here: latest release. After that, you only need to flash the sketch contained in pallilux-arduino to an arduino after adjusting the number of LEDs.
Pallilux running on my computer:
This default mode mirrors the colors displayed on the borders of your screen to the leds behind your screen. The single screen mode can be used by users having a simple rectangle as display space. If you have three monitors, any display space can be configured using the triple screen mode.
Simply show a single constant color on all LEDs.
Rotates a rainbow around the leds. The minimum and maximum hue as well as rotation speed can be adjusted. Additionally, a breathing effect can be applied.
The spectrometer uses PulseAudio to display a spectrogram of the audio currently played in a color of choice. It is not available for Windows.
The host code in pallilux is powered by cmake. By default, the CMakeLists.txt creates a dynamic library in debug mode. There are multiple options available. By far the easiest way to see how to get going is to look at main.cpp.
There is a GUI available in pallilux-gui.

Use the Doxyfile in pallilux to generate the full documentation. Short info about the classes.
This class can create a spectrogram of your current music using the fftw3 library and pulseaudio.
DataFilter
implementations may modify the RgbLineProvider result rgb data in any way, for example to reduce the overall brightness or modify color behaviour. They can be added like this:
unique_ptr<DataFilter> myFilter = unique_ptr<DataFilter>(new MyFilter()));
connector.addFilter("myFilterId", move(myFilter));
Filter class | effect |
---|---|
BrightnessFilter | Apply a factor to all rgb channels |
LowPassFilter | Smooth out the color changes by mixing old and new data |
LinearFactorFilter | Suppress/enhance bright/dark colors |
