    I can not help with MIBAM, but if you are willing to do a hardware change it can be done this way.

    Thanks Dave for the suggestion but that is a little too much hardware changes.
    My project consists in a stream of LEDs lined up in a tube and I am trying to keep the hardware to the minimum.
    I figured at the most I would add 8 transistors but I haven't added them yet and it's been running for about a week now and nothing is getting hot or warm.
    It is running with the code listed in post #20 (top) using MIBAM with a trail of 32 LEDs. I still have the LEDs turn ON and DIM in sets of 8 but I am starting to understand and I believe I will resolve this shortly.

    But thanks and by the way the code coming by a 7 years old that's impressive, if your son is still into programming he must be an expert by now!

    He went a different direction, he is into graphics now. But there is still hope that he will do some code. He is using Blender on a Linux box and is not afraid of using a terminal
