maybe 74HC595 is small for me, i need more RGB leds for each chip. I need other kind of multiplexer, any recomendation?

Can you pass wires from LED to LED in a big long string? If so then get one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/160907739909 and cut it into individual LEDs.

If not, you'll need four wires to each LED from a central PCB. That's an awful lot of wire (two or three kilometers if my calculations are correct... :slight_smile: )

my first idea is the 3+1 wires for each one, the addressable strip is very interesting, how i conect it to the Arduino?
