Smooth Music Mode #3

Open hammy275 opened 5 months ago

hammy275 commented 5 months ago

Another music mode.

Instead of switching between colors on a determined beat, we use a (two-color?) gradient. The gradient calculation is pretty straightforward:

Use the same delta loop as done in cycle_music. The closer to the max a given frame is on, the closer to the second color. The max is whatever delta we stop on, but with half (or maybe even lower) of the max_notes than before.

To create the final list of colors to send, and at what times, we first calculate the send_delay. From there, with some extra wiggle room, is what frames/times we use for sending. Maybe use a bit of bias here to grab times closer to the second color.

The above implementation idea does not work in-practice, but a mode closer to what I want is developed at https://github.com/hammy275/rgb-light-control/commit/1b333afef41cc18489f7dd94e4789d3d7067907d. Next up is iterating on this.
