// Most of the signal pins are configurable, but the CLK pin has some
// special constraints. On 8-bit AVR boards it must be on PORTB...
// Pin 8 works on the Arduino Uno & compatibles (e.g. Adafruit Metro),
// Pin 11 works on the Arduino Mega. On 32-bit SAMD boards it must be
// on the same PORT as the RGB data pins (D2-D7)...
// Pin 8 works on the Adafruit Metro M0 or Arduino Zero,
// Pin A4 works on the Adafruit Metro M4 (if using the Adafruit RGB
// Matrix Shield, cut trace between CLK pads and run a wire to A4).
#define CLK 8 // USE THIS ON ARDUINO UNO, A
//#define CLK A4 // USE THIS ON METRO M4 (not M0)
