Hey, I just got DC controller yesterday and am hooking it up to some RGB ribbons right now. The RGB ribbons have a common positive. When I connect them to the controller, do I need to connect the positive from all 3 channels together or can I just use one positive and the 3 negatives?

Im a good paycheck away from jumping the RGB bandwagon but Im trying to get all the mysterys out of the way first.
