UPDATED download 03/06/2019 removed a small bug, which was the start to our updated screen saver. Added 144 leds upon request, and 25 leds. If you on process of building this... The updates to come are just crazy.. something we couldnt do with bluetooth, and push button.
UPDATE 07/06/2019 Both stereo and mono version 2 complete. both great updates with lots of extras and fine tuning. The Stereo version will be released first hopefully in the next 7 days.
Almost 4000 subscribers.. Thats just crazy.. Thanks everyone.

This is a rushed video.., behind the scenes Our little Wannabe is working overtime to cause as many problems as he can. Lots of copyright, and license BS, All to do with GPL, and Creative Commons Sharealike license ?? Which he plainly does not understand. Anyways Mr wannabe a special link for you. • ABC Phonics | Reading ... - บันเทิง
Thank you to all the time and effort you guys put into this amazing project. You guys are the best.
Great update, you are the best!
I had no Idea about arduino but had seen your video about a vu meter then just went and bought the pieces that was needed followed your clear instruction downloaded your code and to my surprise my first project was complete and working.
You shouldnt have to spend hours/days for someone to take your work and not give any credit to the original programmer.
THANK YOU for all your hard work and making it easy for everyone including me to make these creations. Thank you
Hey C Reynolds., its always nice to hear success stories. Credit is always nice, but when he is using peoples hard work to make money, that is wrong. he is hurting a lot of people. i have seen to many people confront him and he just abuses them. lets just hope he sticks to his cheap banggood soldering kits, and leaves this channel alone.
Well damn, talk about stepping up the game on the vu-meter update. Excellent job guys.
Hey Tomaz, alot of hard work and hours has gone into this one. Version one is minimal, its getting the hardware ready. Version 2 is a huge step. screen saver, more vu meter patterns, and standby patterns. And lots of tuning. version 3 will be crazy. there will be no change in the hardware.. it answers alot of requests, would you believe the original vu meter is 4 years old.., searching youtube for tft control on standby or vu meter .... it doesnt exist.. so its a first..
Stunning work cine-lights and friends, loving the touchscreen, will have to have a go at this one.
Hey James.. it works very well.. version 2 is complete.. just in testing. Lots added, screen saver, more vu meters and stand by patterns. And also eeprom enabled, so all settings saved after power off. The stereo version is 23 vu metres strong and growing. We are constantly fine tuning .. so aiming for something pretty cool. I have yet to see anything on TH-cam that comes close.
Just having the touchscreen makes it amazing for me, you don’t see them being used in many projects so hats off to you. I think it was probably one of your first ever vu meters with a microphone that I have still up and running so not too familiar with your latest ones as they have never interested me that greatly but this one has got me interested! Will have to have a look through some of your other vu videos to catch up on it all. Hope your well mate and gutted to hear your having to deal with this moron copying your work and trying to take the credit for it with all the hard work you put in and freely helping others to create amazing projects.
WoW!!!!! Thanks for the update..... Gonna update mine as well.....
Great work everyone, can't wait to get my workbench set back up after moving so I can play with this one :)
lots of updates to come too... stereo version first.
Thanks, excellent work, no me decido cual fabricar para mi. Thanks.
Hello Cine-Lights and team.
You did mention this revised version was going to be good and WOW you delivered way beyond expectations. It is great to see you all come together to create such a great piece of work and taking the project to another level by applying the TFT screen. Sensational work once again. Also totally understand why you are supplying the code in this format. I appreciate that you are continuing to share your work with the community.
I also have now ordered the parts. Wondering if you can also upload a code for 50 leds per channel
Hello mate... your link : drive.google.com/open?id=10kc2c-xZep-ZxAT-nc3Re3Ld5Ska67zX
This a actually version 2, which will not be released for another few weeks. its set for 50 leds as you requested and has all the latest updates.( if anyone wants a pre-release then feel free.. 50 leds only though ) supplying in this format, helps us to make sure its easier for everyone for a one click upload. ( you will need to download the original code to upload this one ). it includes all the libraries etc. The wannabe has his little brain cells working overtime to justify what he is doing.. his latest video 30 views.. his rip off of this vu meter 26k views, says it all really... when starting this channel would i ever believe there was such low life people breathing.. i am looking at updating the 3d print files for original arduino megas, so it makes it easier to everyone. But the final build of this project will beat them all and will require new print files.. so.. keeping me busy..
always awesome.... 😀 😀 😀
Very nice.Thank you.
Очень круто! Ты такие чудеса вытворяешь. Как у тебя времени на это хватает? Давай удивляй нас еще своими проектами! Ставлю палец вверх!
wow great update, this is gone cost me even more money lol, need to order a touchscreen asap.
Hiya Icewolffinc, yes more money.., but if you see what i see this end, then its a good purchase. i did pick quite a cheap screen to make it an affordable build. . The screen does comes with a pen.., but i have tried so hard to make the control big enough that it can be controlled with a single finger.. the updates are being added every night, so a lot of work is going into this build.. i have yet to see a touchscreen and led strip in the same setup.. so one like this is pretty original.. it depends what your after.., but i would build the stereo version as it will work in both stereo and mono.. the stereo version is now 100% complete, is now in testing mode.., The mono update is pretty close to.. lots and lots have been added. Thanks for the support on the Wannabe.. , its crazy how this channel is growing, especially when this is just a hobby for me.. no funding, or money making.. you will always have a leech, which he is.. hes out to make money on everyone's hard work... I try and keep as much of it out of my channel.. but its hard.. but supplying the code the way i am doing for the time being helps me and others equally, a simple upload, no searching for libraries etc.. it just works.. , anyways.. any problems, throw a message, equally if you get a successful build.., please share..
Fantastic job :)
This with one of your acrylic towers would look amazing. i am trying to source some good acrylic. ( 50 pieces ) and the price is crazy.. i have everything else to build it.. the best price so far £260... thats mad. i will keep searching.., a tower like yours with this controlling it would make it complete. .. on that note.., if anyone is reading this please drop into Moza`s page and hit that subscribe button. some of his builds are truly stunning..
@@cine-lights Thank you very much :)
@@cine-lights i can make 5mm tiles, but 8mm are the best. I found a company in Ireland, they sell 8mm acrylic sheets 1000mmx2000mm for € 160 (plus delivery). I will buy one soon and try to cut it out.
@@moza2397 I have eventually sourced some.., 50 pieces, all polished etc. need to wait a few days.., need to design a 3d printed clip, that will clip onto the acrylic and hold the led in place. all good fun..
Cordial greetings from Chile ....
I do not have words to thank what you do and even more that you share it and you give it totally for free .... you are incredible ... together with the team that helps you in this ..... I am sorry that people do not understand everything behind your project is a pity, and it's because of people like us that we are, but I've seen many people who really want to help and support others ... and you and your team are one of those people .... thanks for sharing your knowledge ....... yap I do not give more the can just thank you ...
I also tell you that I have bought all the components to be able to put it together like you, I'm waiting for them to arrive ... but I have a doubt ... I only need 25 LEDs ... can I use it anyway? ... and although I can not use it anyway, I'm going to put it together ... hehe
a hug
Hi.. i am just about to post an update. i will place a version for 25 leds in the download.
wow! this new. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
awesome
Awesome, a great update of your previous vu meter.
I'm wondering if you can share some link for acrylic pipe / towers. I did some test with parts found at Ali but not truly satisfied.
Thank you for all your time and effort, its a petty that there are narrow minded people who ruin it for us, I used your build to build me a VU meter for my home with 148 LED's and one with 180 LED's and instead of the push button I used a small Keyboard to control the VU, Patterns and Solid colors, all in all a great project. I would love to share the pix with you in a private message.
Can you make a version with 148 LED's and one with 180 LED's. thank you for all your hard and creative work, much appreciated.

Hey dj viking., thanks for your support. It does seem everyone sees it that way accept him., And he is upsetting alot of people. He spends lot of his wasted time quoting licenses which he has no clue about. Sharing the code this way does help both me and you guys though. As mentioned before it is a one click install. no chasing for libraries etc. Version 2 is ready, well the code is, as is the stereo version ( next to be released ). we try and stick to a 2 week video release, so the stereo version should be released in the next week.
@@cine-lights thank you for your quick response, lol going to put it together tonight and will let you know. Let me know if you want me to private message some pics of the result.
@@djviking9903 Hi..., yes would love to hear you view on this build. it is version one, version 2 does have a lot more to offer. we have tried to keep away from the little pen stick thing that it comes with., but in some of the options / settings you may feel you need it. this is more down to the screen than the code itself. we have included eeprom in version 2, so once you have made a setting , it remains the same even after power off. any pictures would be great. send them to mannymiller1968@gmail.com and i will include them in one of the next videos. that applies to anyone else too.
Nice
Hi! Great job. I dont know if I will be able to build this, but I will try to do my best. Some links broken. Which screen should I buy? Thanks.
You can use micro pcb. Use not jack 3.5 head phone
Hi! Fantastic Job! It's incredible!!! I want to create my first vumeter, but I think that maybe too complex as a starting point. With which vumeter project would you suggest me to begin? I would appreciate very much your advice. Regards from Argentina!!!!
Hi Cine -Lights. Work done great. It's a pity of course that the bluetooth vu meter project is stopped and аny further updates to the mono and stereo vu meter will be touchscreen only. We'll have to buy a TFT screen and wait for a detailed description of connecting it to the controller. :)
Hey Kolobov Igor. The problem with the bluetooth version was i took it as far as i could. I wanted something that would both work for the stereo and mono version., but with the stereo version timing issues were becoming more of an problem. This was also apparent on the mono version in the 100 led region. On the lastest mono version i had maxed out on the single page with buttons. This meant a second page would have been needed, this caused other problems. my number one request on both vu meters was a volume and brightness control, again more timing issues.
I needed something to answer the requests, looked better, and worked properly., and of course had to be something new and original, The touchscreen is all that. The screen its self is designed for the arduino uno and mega. It does use a little memory, along with the ammount of effects in version 2 there is no way it will work on an arduino uno. also the ammount of pins needed for the screen you are limited. so this is Arduino mega only, and it is a simple plug in. you just need to make sure the pins line up. There maybe some concern about size using the Mega but the size is only slightly bigger than the screen. The reason why i soldered the wires to the back of the mega. Yes the Arduino Mega mini could be used., BUT you would get a much cleaner finish using the standard version.
After the release of the stereo version (which is next), then version 2 of the mono.. (both completed).. There will be a few updates fixing any bugs found, then i am sure there will be further updates. I do not own a vu meter myself. so every time i update a vu meter, or make another version i too have to build it. Because of the touchscreen i have decided to build an led tower similar to the ones you have built. I have ordered 50 pieces of acrylic and have all the hardware to complete it I do think the led tower and touchscreen together will look just amazing. especially that this version with the case is just a nice clean finish..
Again if anyone wishes to see an amazing design of a vu meter tower, please visit kolobov Igor`s youtube channel.. truely stunning work.
@@cine-lights Thanks for the answer. In principle, the idea was to make two identical towers of the mono / linein system at the mega and run them from different audio channels. Get a stereo with a large selection of vu meters. But with the control of the bluetooth two controllers at the same time the complexity will appear. :) :)
@@EGORka140764 if you built two mono vu meters. One using the right channel, and one using the left channel. You would only need to use the mono code on each as they will act according to the signal sent. So in stereo. Bluetooth would be an issue as you will be only able to connect to one at time.
Yes, yes, I wanted to say it. sorry for bad english. Google translator when translating meaning distorts sometimes. :)
hi!, i build your vu meter just for VU but and it looks increible !
but i work in the night and i cant listen music too loud
whats the value that i had to change for the program react to lower volumen ?
sorry for the bad english, iam chilean
It’s such a shame you have to distribute the code in this way. I have learnt so much for all your project that it really is a pity. That said, I compleatly understand why. Top work as ever. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into these projects and thank you for sharing them.
Hey Heathman. In some ways it also makes it easier for everyone. It's a simple upload which includes all the libraries needed, and it just works. The standard vu meter uses 2 libraries and some people still have problems. This uses alot more.
i still have an open qustion, im not sure if u´ve reade it before, do u have the 3d modell for the normal vu meter? i would pay 4 it ofc.
Hey Jixxer, sorry i did not see your previous question. the origial vu meter was not 3d printed. i used a book shelf end. it was such a long time a go now, i can not even remember where i got it from.
@@cine-lights damn :D thx anyways
Wow. This is massive!
I wonder if you can Upload a Code for 150 LED? Would be very nice!
Hi... sorry for my late reply. i am about to release version 2. i will include your version within that download.
Looks great, can this be purchased and from where please?
Hi Mark.. This is a very easy build.. , and i try and make it easy enough for most people to follow. its all free, you need to buy the parts and put them together... believe me when i say once completed the satisfaction knowing you built it makes it worth a million times more. if you get stuck.. me and many others are here to help..
i bourght this screen, 3.2" TFT LCD Touch + TFT 3.2 inch Shield + Mega 2560 R3 with usb cable for Arduino kit, and uploaded code, but its just white screen, what am i doing wrong? i think this needs to be added to the code, for screen to work .. ILI9341_16 .....3.2" TFT LCD Touch + TFT 3.2 inch Shield + Mega 2560 R3 with usb cable for Arduino kit,
Hi Manny, could you please provide a download link for a 72 LED version. Thank you!
Hey Javier ...For mono or stereo ? Im guessing mono. download link : drive.google.com/open?id=1LYT4TnCKXQWPowqOMckVpIpIaoW4e_4M Due to your support, in a way of thankyou ive sent version 2 which will not be released for another week or so :)
@@cine-lightsThank you! I have always been a fan of your work and will continue to be so!
How can I bild the upper vu meter? which metal rod which leds
The metal channel i used ive had for ages. it has been moved from project to project. they can be found here www.solidapollo.com/led-strip-profiles/ the round version. im sure they also be found on ebay etc. the leds i used as always are the ws2812b leds. 144 leds a metre. in this case i used 110 of them
@Cine-Lights
Great job ! can you put 144 led version in download link ( as i see comments its often needed)
Hi.. yes no problem. It will be posted by the end of today.
will be updated in about 30 minutes. also has a small bug removed.
@@cine-lights Thanx a lot ! :)
Please add a HomeAssistant light mqtt function to it
how does one gain access to the passwords? really love your stuff.
Can we use the nextion?
Thank you for your nice projects throughout the years. It's always one bad apple that poisons the rest. I used your source code on my teensy and esp32. Is there any chance you'll compile the code for them too. Thanks, Jef
Hi Jeff... you mean compile the touchscreen version for the teensy ?
@@cine-lights Hi, I don't use the audio jack as audio input but microphones. And teensy is very tricky on using the DAC convertors. It was easier to tweak the source code. 2nd I don't know if teensy uses the same pinout? Won't be easy tweaking the assembler code. Thank you, Jef
thanks for all your work, i hope that dude disappears in hell soon and lets you do your excellent work...
Hiya.. we do too... but i doubt it. lets hope he sticks to his cheap banggood crap. This build is version one.. version 2 is a huge step forward.. 11 vu meters to 20 vu meters.. its being fine tuned every day. This is just so anyone that wishes to build this project can get the hardware ready, which will never change.. its software only... i have lots of friends testing it as i type this.. bugs being fixed.. which to be honest are very little.. so its all looking good.
@@cine-lights suggest better specifing the tft ebay link to a more accurate one, as the one in description is too generic and leads (mostly) to raspberry ones, too
Hi @@squalazzo, if you carefully look at the back picture it is easy to order the correct one from ebay (anyway the driver is the most important here, ILI9486/ILI9488L).
@@squalazzoi do mention in the parts list which version. also im my search there not any others using the blue pcb and yellow pins that are 3.5"
@@cine-lights thanks, I'll rewatch that part of the video then
Nice Work. Can i have a code for 144 LED`s? Many Thanks in advice. I follow your work since the first release. Really great Project.
I will post a 144 led version by the end of today. Also I will post a 144 led version automatically when we release version 2. Which will be a big Jump forward... lots more vu meters and standby patterns and bugs ironed out.
Can you please make the code for a 287 leds version?
Link: drive.google.com/file/d/1FW1hrAxJPHKmNfXEc7QJAx4EZAD5iJzE/view?usp=sharing ... please be aware there were memory warnings on compiling...
I SEE
never mind saw the note in the video
Hey Brian, sorry it had to come to password protected files - it was to put a point across to certain people. We put alot of hours into this project ( at this time you wont find another tft screen controlled vu meter ) good luck with build, if you need the code for your particular build, ie number of leds not listed here then please feel free to request for it..
CL nice project, very nice indeed. How do you mount your LEDs? Sorry for the problems the little dirtbags are causing for you. Wannabe wants to be but all he will be is a LOSER. I enjoy your videos and your projects. Thank you.
The leds are mounted into an aluminium channel like this : www.theledstore.co/led-profile-for-led-strip-square-round?gclid=Cj0KCQjwrdjnBRDXARIsAEcE5YmLWhr65ICHkdrGdLP1AgYvFWFqwN8OZt_rBcMcTMpO2irxdZ8ma34aAuHFEALw_wcB

I build the lamp, but i have a problem in the code "Vu meter Fineal V2 . I always have: variable or field 'addGlitter' declared void
Can somebody help me? Pls
Levin Obst: To method is void - it does not return anything. here is the method as intended simply takes in a value which is then compared agains a small random number. if so it will take a random pixel and make it white.
void addGlitter( fract8 chanceOfGlitter) { // Let's add some glitter, thanks to Mark
if( random8() < chanceOfGlitter) {

Hi Cine-Lights! I duplicated your project - th-cam.com/video/LXeGRoULy4c/w-d-xo.html.
I have a few questions. Sometimes (on my video in 1.05, 1.30, 2.32, 2.56) a screen with two buttons "1" and "A" spontaneously appears. When you click on any or a clean screen, it simply returns to the previous screen. What is it ? What does the "P2" option answer - the mod palette, in the "standby menu"? Pressing "P2" opens a window with the options "palette +" and "palette -". Clicking on them that changes?
And Pattern P, all marked with digits and only he letter.

I would like to add patterns and some features to my project, such as managing the sensitivity and other settings, via an IR remote control for exemple.
Did you create the patterns alone or did you find them on the net?
