How to go from 16chl LOR LEDs to RGB pixels??

[Luigi_A]

Hello everyone this is my first ever post. My first light show was about 4 years ago thanks to youtube videos.

Now I'm looking to dive into the smart RGB world but I need some guidance on where to start and how to figure out what I want. My main questions fall into following categories: Scale ablility, Compatiblity, Budget, Installation.

I use the LOR 16chl controller currently with a singing face. Can I add rgb pixels using same sequences that are in my current controller or do I have to create new sequences from scratch? I'm looking to keep some elements the same but I also want to make my roofline which is currently CHL 1 to be my rgb lights. Which controllers would be my options?

Also how much $ for smart rgb lights to do a outline of standard front face roofline 2 floor home? Or how would I calculate that?

And any tips to install strips vs strings that would not require too much holes on my house?

Any help is appreciated thanks!
