Rainbow vomit mode for the #eurorack established. That's the starting point I needed.
WS2812B LEDs controlled by FastLED on a Arduino Nano Every, external power supply. Needed a galvanic isolated USB connector to be safe, otherwise I'd have to disconnect the external 3.5A power supply for the LEDs everytime I upload a new sketch. The Nanos should have a diode to protect against this...but better safe than sorry.
Next on the roadmap are multiple lighting modes plus a CV-based colour changing scheme for ambient sets (note values influence colour). Another input for a transistor trigger input (I'm using CV for now). And the menu...will still take some time.
