Hello all - I have what may not be a very bright question....

I set up a show with some complex scenes/chases on a small test strip (WS2812B strip - 10 pixels). I would like to move this to a larger WS2812B 'panel' (2 rows of 20 pixels). Is there a way to do this without needing to add a new fixture and copy the RGB colors per step in the chase?

Thanks!

Not the subject but can you tell what interface you use to communicate from dmx to WS2812 ?
I am interested to do so but not sure of what interface to buy.

Hi Guys,

To answer the first question.
If you select the RGB panel in the fixtures list you will be shown the matrix filled with you ten pixels. At the bottom you can adjust the size of the matrix. Next select the first empty square, the click the add fixture button on the tool bar and enter 15 new generic RGB fixtures. Remember to select the correct mode.

Second question.
I have been playing with WS2812B strips for a bit now and I have used some DMX to WS2812B converters from Ebay which worked well. But I am hoping to set up some lights for Christmas and realised that these were going to take up my available universes very quickly so got an E1.13 to WS2812B bridge which handles 32 universes of pixels and 4 DMX universes :shock:
