More project information on instructables (schematic, layout, code,....): http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Arduino-LED-Color-Organ-20/

In this project I will revive my very first project and present you a better explanation how the circuit works and how you can build it easily on a breadboard or a stripboard. The finished color organ reacts to different frequency bands in your music with light shows.
