For my Music LED visualiser, I used a matt white IKEA LACK table (mainly as it was the cheapest!) and hollowed out the inside.
My plan was to create a matrix out of white laminated hardboard. I used the electronics from an Adafruit kit, and added 128 LEDs to make the display super large and colourful!
The core is based on the Music Visualiser at Music Visualiser – Adafruit. The code is from there, the circuit is from there.
Really, I wanted to make a full Arduino Tetris table. 🙂 I had most of the spare parts and wood available to make this, so that’s what I did. Hope you like the end result.
The full instructions for my Music LED Visualiser can be found over at Instructables.
