  • LED Strip Neopixel cloner?

    Posted by Thomas Huurman on January 12, 2017 at 8:59 pm

    Im working on a project that requires something that has the same effect as an Adafruit Neopixel LED strip.
    i got 1 light and put that in a cloner to make the “strip”. But i can’t figure out how to offset the color per light.

    This is the look i am going for (the rainbow):

    I hope someone can help me with this.

    Im on R17.

    Step effector and Shader effector in combination – turn Use Alpha Strength off (in the Shader Effector/Parameter/Color) to get full colors – Step effector in Index Ratio to set up the shader effector to paint along the clones in order.

    YES! That seemed to do the job just right, thank you.
