independent LED chasers - wish to change all speeds with one button - one MICRO

Projects Programming
1

I have this code to do several independent speed chasers at the same time on one Arduino, original sketch by johnwasser (big thank you!)

Now I would like to be able to interrupt and change all the speeds to different, independent ones by pressing one switch and then each time pressed cycle through say maybe 5 different sets of speeds. So far no luck finding something similar here.

I'de like keep the code in the structure it is , if possible, so as not to confuse myself. It took me a long time to understand this and modify with my Asberger. Any more confusion and I will just shut down and not touch for a long time.

On a level of 1 to 10 skill level I am prob 2-3

Thanks!

Maybe it's the case of using RTOS?
