Software
Pimoroni provides a nifty one-line installer will get your pHAT BEAT configured and install our VU meter plugin for ALSA that uses the RGB LEDs on pHAT BEAT to display sound levels.
There is a Python library to allow you to control the LEDs independently, if you wish, and to program the buttons to do whatever you wish.
