Title says it all. I've been using Teensy's with OctoWS2811 to power projects (with as many as 4,000 LEDs) for several years. But my next project is going to be installed in multiple locations many...
That did it, Paul. I must have missed that in the docs. All good now. Thanks as always!
Hi, long time Teensy fan, new to the Audio Board. I am helping my son with a project, he needs to play his own recorded WAV files in response to button presses. The Teensy and Audio Board are working...
Our new and improved Chanukah Display, now with a giant Menorah and a dueling Dreidel game. All in all about 4,500 NeoPixels, and all powered by two Teensy 3.6's. Video has some details on how it is...
As promised, here's a video with a demo and more details. Enjoy!

Yep, I tried to shoot better pics and video but we have 40MPH winds outside. I'll get better video and add a "how it works" section.
Giant Chanukah Menorah and two "spinning" Dreidels made from 3,500 Neopixels powered by Teensy and Octo and a whole lot of power, full display is 18' wide, and animates lighting sequences!

Working on animation sequences now (animating the correct lighting procedure for each day of Hanukkah), and the kids are coming up with color schemes and patterns. Once we are done and it's up...
Just a quick note to say THANK YOU, Octo is absolutely superb.
Despite my oops! moment a few weeks ago (when I had the Octo backwards on the Teensy) we've been hard at work on a giant Hanukkah...
Oh my! I must have inverted when I moved it from one Teensy to the other! :(
I'll give it a try, thanks so much.
#include <OctoWS2811.h>
const int ledsPerStrip = 10;
DMAMEM int displayMemory[ledsPerStrip*6];
int drawingMemory[ledsPerStrip*6];
const int config = WS2811_GRB | WS2811_800kHz;

Thanks. I have attached pictures as requested. At this point I have simplified things down to a single strand of just 10 NeoPixel LEDs. The Teensy is getting power from the USB, so separate from the...
Hi,
I am building a bigger and badder version of a holiday display, and with as many RGB LEDs as I expect to use I am trying to use Teensy 3.6 + OctoWS2811. I have the Teensy working, the...
