I am not using an Arduino for this project, but I think it is irrelevant anyway. I want to have 40-50 LEDs in a circuit, hopefully, all able to be turned off and on individually... I have 8 pins I can work with... I was hoping, that if 8 pins were enough I could use a 3 color LED which would move …

40-50 LEDs

I read up on multiplxers, because the 8 pins only output 5v I would only be able to light about 8 LEDs at a time this way, correct?

Do you know where i can find a multiplexer?

Would I be able to daisy chain these?
