It's hard when you more colors than you do drivers. It sure would be easier if you had a few more blues and ran those on a separate driver

i went from 8 rb and 8 cw, to 16rb 2 blue 4cw and 4nw, and will probably switch out the rest of the cw with nw later the nw really warm up the colour, brings out the reds and orange. i run some rb on the white string and only use 2 drivers

Okay. I'll order the moonlight driver for the blues. And, I'll order two neutral white boards.

The reds are now "playing" nw in this photo.



I'm thinking I might add a red/green board between the two nw boards. But, then I'd rotate the centre boards so they were running the same way as the blues. In the event I didn't like the red/green, I could just remove the wiring for it. It could go on either of the two dimmable drivers.
