Complete NOOB question

[dis0wned]

Hello all, first post to the forum.

I Have a Pixlite 16 board, picked up the pig tails, power supply and cables, also got a ton of ip68 ws2811 pixels, then built a megatree, tested everything (and it works amazingly enough). I also built a raspberry pi lighting controller using a 16 channel relay and lightshow pi (which is freaking awesome). I put a playlist together on my lightshow pi controller which runs basically my entire house, yard, and other lighting pieces. I then hooked up a low powered FM transmitter (so im not driving my neighbors nuts by having an amp running music every night).

So here is the question:
Is there a way to channelize frequencies then map them to effects which will play  on a real time stream?
Is this a possibility?
How would you approach making both independent controllers work together without spending countless hours creating sequences and trying to keep them in sync?

Sorry if this question has been covered, I didnt see anything that referenced this however I could have easily missed it.

Cheers..

Reading between the lines a bit ...

XLights and other sequences work on the concept of creating a show where you take the music and largely manually create effects to match (although there are some somewhat automatic effects). When you play your show your show player then plays the lights and music in a synchronised way.

Having lights just respond to live audio is possible but you need to be looking more towards software designed for the music performance scene and you need to realise none of the Christmas shows you see on YouTube use that approach so understand there are some pretty significant limitations with that approach.

If there was a simple solution every house on the block would be doing that, but that is not what you see.  This is not a simple hobby.  Nor is it an inexpensive hobby.  It takes a lot of time and at least some pretty good money to have a good show.
