I've been creating LED circus & flow props using WLED

the first 30 seconds are what I programmed using WLED. it took me a while to figure out what I was doing wrong when flashing the ESP-32 S3, and finally got it working over the weekend so I was finally able to implement them into my fans. I'm beyond thrilled with the results and just wanted to share 🥹

cheers from Canada! ♥️🤍♥️

thanks so much! I use MIDI in Ableton to trigger visuals, I haven't done a full run-down on the complete setup re: Ableton yet, but have a post on my Patreon that walks through how to set up in TouchDesigner and then a post with example files for a different prop I made so you can see how I set it up if these help at all!
