Adapt for ws2801 lights #123
Comments
I second this! |
@benwicks Okay... So I just adapted it for the ws2801 led strip. It is a bit quick and dirty but here yah go!
Step 1 edit your config to the number of lights that you want. You do not need frequency and whatnot. The library will handle that for us.
if you get that buffer overflow follow this edit: |
Looks great @kevkid! I don't have a microphone yet so am waiting a little longer to try this. I will keep a record of your work to try once I acquire a microphone. Thanks! |
@benwicks Awesome! Good luck setting up your lights! If you have any questions about my project let me know! |
I am also using a strip of WS2801 LEDs, they are connected to an ESP8266 running ESPlightNode, and I have patched led.py to send Artnet output (see issue 134). Works like a charm. |
@kevkid I had time to set up your project today. My strand has 25 lights and the basics are working ok. But, when I turn on the visualizer, I get this output and see no change on the lights. Do you think there might be an issue getting ahold of the microphone? Thanks for all the help so far!

@benwicks there may be several things going on. Try this check list to make sure that everything is the way it should.

Thanks. I did notice I didn't have the right number of LEDs specified in the config.py file. Now, I'm not sure how to proceed with making sure the microphone is working. Do you have a link to walk through how to configure my microphone as the default device in linux? |
@benwicks I used the default configuration from this github. Follow what was written here for the Pi and it should work. |
Hi, I'm interested in using your project with my ws2801 LED strand. Can you help me understand what modifications will be necessary to work with those lights? Thank you.
