Mark h2o Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Last year I used 4 colors & no LED.Clear (I know, it's not a color but I'm going with it)RedGreenBlueThis year to achieve some effects that require more channels I dropped blue from the display. Based on the channels I'm using this year it's the only way I can make it work, and still...........No LEDs.I'm not sure how many of you have added or removed certain segments or colors from a sequence but it's a real time consuming pain in the noggin! Just when you think your done listening to a song for the billionth time, it happens all over again:shock:I do like the color blue and I think that it can really add depth and character to a display, so I hope I don't miss it too much.So whats your colors of choice?

JBullard Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Blue LEDs don't fade out in the sun like incadescents do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may sound strange, but I like it that way. It feels real "Christmasy" to me with mainly static. I may add another 16 ch in a year or two. We will see.
