Adding a fade/tail to the peaks #8

Closed kosso closed 3 years ago

Hi, Thanks for all the great videos and code! Extremely helpful in a project I'm building (a massive LED matrix to go in a 'cat pub' fire place. ;) )

I've seen your videos about FastLED and fading out pixels. (like a tail)

But I'm struggling to work out how to do that with the peaks in the whitePeak() method.

Any clues? Or is it not possible?

Many thanks!

update:

actually, I think I've sussed it by using fadeToBlackBy(leds, NUM_LEDS, 120); instead of FastLED.clear() for the audio pattern/modes at the start of the loop. :+1:
