Fading LEDs
-----------

This sketch uses a sine wave to drive the brightness of a series of LEDs 
connected to the eight analog out pins. Again you can see the nested `for` loop 
structure but this time for the analog output channels rather than the audio.

Within the first `for` loop in render we cycle through each frame in the analog 
output matrix. At each frame we then cycle through the analog output channels 
with another `for` loop and set the output voltage according to the phase of a 
sine tone that acts as an LFO. The analog output pins can provide a voltage of 
~4.092V.

The output on each pin is set with `analogWriteFrame` within the `for` loop that 
cycles through the analog output channels. This needs to be provided with 
arguments as follows `analogWriteFrame(context, n, channel, out)`. Channel is 
where the you give the address of the analog output pin (in this case we cycle 
through each pin address in the for loop), out is the variable that holds the 
desired output (in this case set by the sine wave).

Notice that the phase of the brightness cycle for each led is different. This 
is achieved by updating a variable that stores a relative phase value. This 
variable is advanced by pi/4 (1/8 of a full rotation) for each channel giving 
each of the eight LEDs a different phase.
