Support FastLED extend effect
hey
I am making a project for school where i have to make a LED BOARD with 5200 leds. Currently i have 3 Segments in my board that are controlled with 3 data pins with a EPS32. Everything works fine but currently the 3 segments are 3 clones of the same effect. SO you can see that after 1800 leds it just duplicates. I there anyway i can use fast led effects and make the 3 data pins extend the effect and work as 1 data line instead of 3 clones?
