The build is open-source, and designed to work with strings of 60, 120, or 180 WS2812B LEDs. An Arduino Nano is charged with running the show, capturing audio via its analog-to-digital converter.

WS2812B & Arduino Earlier we controlled LED matrixes, strips and other complex LED projects bundled with countless interconnected wires with the help of multiplexers and shift registers.

The WS2828B WS2812B LED strip used is technically a 5 V unit, but [pepelepoisson] found that feeding them direct from the 3.7 V cell works just fine; it’s not until the cell drops to about three ...
