About

Canvas Calc

Features
Read full description

Canvas Calc is the essential tool for users of LED Creatives BYTE Controller, designed to synchronize LED strip behavior across varying lengths by calculating the Virtual Start (VS) and Virtual End (VE). Canvas Calc ensures that effects, timings, and animations remain perfectly aligned, even when strips or grouped outputs differ in size. This guarantees consistent, synchronised effects across all LED lines, creating a seamless visual experience in every installation.
