Hi all, I am also new to the world of pixel controlled lights. I jumped in ready to have something ready for next Christmas when my wife asked if I could use them on our luau party that was this weekend. I got my moving lights a couple weeks ago and with no directions I had to figure it out for myself.
I was pleased to have one song Margaretville that amazed our audience. I had a large grid of lights, two smaller grids and on top of the grid I had two moving lights.
They are CREE 15Watt RGBW and came with no directions other than the channel list. I was able to get them to work with xlights and work well although it was difficult at first.
I used the ON command for each of the 13 channels then add fades to control vertical and horizontal as well as other controls as I went on. Once you have a few second blocks done you can copy and pasted it then just change what you want down the line.
This is a few second block.
