How to Make Music IQ Led Lights with arduino board

Introduction

This music responsible IQ light string is an application based on an individually addressable LED strip. It can turn into other different products if you want to. All you have to do is to change the outside wrapper. It's googd choice to be a decoration in your friends' party, Children's room, or date with candlelight dinner and romantic pas de deux. .. ^^

What you’ll need

Audio Analyzer*1
Analog sound sensor*2
RGB individually addressable LED strip *1
Beetle - The Smallest Arduino Microcontroller *1

Connection
You can connect different components together based on the diagram below:

#define SEG 6 // how many parts you want to seperate the led strip into
 
Analyzer Audio = Analyzer(10,9,0);//Strobe pin ->10  RST pin ->9 Analog Pin ->0
