8x8x8 Video Showing the Spectrum Analyser

8x8x8 Update

Wow, time keeps flying by... The 8x8x8 is so very close to being released. We have 7 units being burnt-in this week to weed out any defective LED's. If all goes well, Units will be available this weekend. uSD software is still being polished but I am confident in the Hardware so that option can be enabled with a software update after you guys get them.

Look out for a video this week! As well as beta software for you guys to start making patterns.

8x8x8 Update

Hey all, I know there are a lot of people waiting for the 3D LED Matrix - C-512 Model 103, our team is putting in some heavy hours to get these units out. We have real-time mode working with the Spectrum Analyser, as well as the editing software is operational. Only thing holding things up is the uSD cards. They are not cooperating at the moment. We made some major progress today and figured out the issues. Tomorrow we hope to have that working.. .so we can get start getting these units out.

When everything is ready, I promise you it will be worth the wait.

More Spectrum Analyser patterns.

We updated the 5x5x5 Software to include some new Spectrum Analyser patterns. You can select them from the audio menu. Select the pattern first than click the audio button. We will make it so you can change it on the fly in the next build.

How to link Audio Output to Input Spectrum Analyser

Here are some instructions on how to virtually link what's coming out your speakers to your default input so the Spectrum Analyser function on the 3D LED Matrix will work directly off your sound card output. No need for any external microphones.
