Here I used a constrained noise as a mask to create another three-dimensional illusion
(at least I hope that it works for you too
This time I adjusted all parameters related to moving directions first by visualizing them as dots with a tail. Some pixel moving in a 2d space are easy to trace. Then I linked it to the layers and last I adjusted the colors.
This is way more convenient to do it systematically compared to trying to adjust it all ot once…
But I have to admit that it took me 2 pages in my notebook to become clear first what I want to happen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfcuWKawAlk
Looks nice, but I can’t tell if the music is actually having an effect on the visuals, or if it’s just there for accompaniment. If it is, what parameters are changing based on the sound?
If you can not tell, the answer is clearly no
This pattern is not soundreactive yet.
But I can imagine that increasing the moving speed in x/y direction dependig on the 63 Hz band would look nice.
What does faster mean to you? More fps? Most probably the Due will give you that. Faster movement? No problem on an AVR as well, but it might make you sick when watching it from a close distance. That happened at least to me…
Sorry my bad english. I can’t xplain. For example, in a bigger project an Arduino UNO, could not support the work, or will not run like you expected, so you will use a teensy board. And Yes I finished the Matrix, I followed your advice, I put power in 3 points :). I am running some examples and they run very nice (noisy, matrix, etc). I want to try your noisy examples because they look awsome, but I will buy some WS2812B, and I was checking if get an Arduino Due for future projects, because it looks very powerfull. That’s why my question. And again sorry for my bad english, I guess I sound unpleasant.
No problem buddy, now I understand you. I used for everything I did within the last half year an Arduino Mega2560 and it teached me a lot about RAM efficient programming. Just with 3 or more noise layers the calculation power is too little for agreeable fps. With the Due I have no experience but 32bit ARM @84Mhz sounds potent. But consider a Teensy, it is cheaper (just 20 Dollar) and faster than a Due. By the way: the leds in my matrix are WS2812B too. For 7x14 leds you should be fine with the Uno for a while. Looking forward to seeing your first videos!
¡Hasta luego hombre!
