sorry for stupid question, but will this code work? (i just can’t try right now)
FastLED.addLeds<LED_TYPE, 4 ,COLOR_ORDER>(leds, NUM_LEDS)
FastLED.addLeds<LED_TYPE, 5 ,COLOR_ORDER>(leds, NUM_LEDS)
FastLED.addLeds<LED_TYPE, 6 ,COLOR_ORDER>(leds, NUM_LEDS)
…
new idea for this NY tree is place few lines of leds from top straight to bottom, and colors of this lines have to be same on same level
p.s. sorry for my simple english
No it won’t work, only the LEDs on pin 6 will work. See the"multiple" examples that come with the library…
If I’m understanding your question correctly, you should just be able to connect from one pin to the data in at the start of all the strips, if you want them to all be the same
@Will_Tatam i didn’t think about this option, thnks
@Jeremy_Spencer thanks, i’ll see
@Jeremy_Spencer actually this will work - it just means that the leds off of pins 4, 5, and 6 will all show the same thing - which it sounds like is what is wanted. The advantage to doing it this way vs. @Will_Tatam 's idea about multiple strips off of one pin is it means that if you ever decide you want the strips to do different things, it’s just a code changing, not a wiring change as well. The downside of doing it this way is just that it will take more time to write out the led data because it will have to write it out to each of the three pins.
Thanks, @Daniel_Garcia , It’s good to learn something new about this amazing library
