/*
     Arduino - Processing Real Time Spectrum Analyzer

This program is intended output a FFT from a pc on a RGB matrix
The program is based on the adafruit RGB matrix library: https://learn.adafruit.com/32x16-32x32-rgb-led-matrix/
The FFT results in the complimentary processing code handles 64 bands so the code calls for 2 panels, but can be modified for only one easily
More information, including full parts list and videos of the final product can be seen on 12vtronix.com
