TEENSY 3.1 - 64x32 RGB LED MATRIX

[SeekerOfKnowledge]

Good day people,

I'm seeking your advice regarding my project. I'm creating a digital sign using 3 64x32 rgb led matrices from https://www.adafruit.com/product/2279 to display messages and cool patterns, in addition i will use a teensy 3.1 micro controller to run it. The setup was taken from https://github.com/pixelmatix/SmartM...atrixSD_V3.pdf and works successfully with 1 matrix, however my question is, is the teensy 3.1 powerfully enough to run 3 of them? Thank you in advance.

SmartMatrix creator here: it's likely not powerful enough. It can handle 2x 64x32 with some compromises in color depth and refresh rate. 3x is too much. The SmartLED Shield V4 supports using a Teensy 3.6, and though I haven't tested it myself, should support 3x 64x32 matrices.

The SmartLED Shield V4 is out of stock right now, but I'm working on getting a larger batch sent off to Adafruit. The assembly is done but the manufacturer needs to put together a test fixture to test them before shipping. I'm hoping they're back in stock late-January or early-Februrary. https://www.adafruit.com/products/1902
