DIY LED Strobe - flash with music

[caleb]

how can i build a strobe that will beat with the music. i heard of using a 'clap' on/off circuit so as the bass hits the light turn on for that beat but does not stay on.

and, how about twinkeling effect. can you have it so you turn the pot up and it twinkles faster.

thanks anyone, please recomend places for parts, components and schematics.

and, is there anyone here that make there own DJ light shows.

Just buy one.

There are quite a few sound active strobe lights about, just they are usually over £40.

You could just do that and buy a red light filter and cover over the front.

This is a design for a complete lighting controller, which includes a strobe controller with bass response:

Don't ask me anything about it though, I personally haven't built it, just know it exists.
