I am not familiar with the T1000 LED controller. It is not a product that we sell or support.
From the specifications on-line, it supports the WS2811 protocol, so it should work for the strip. However, with that many pixels it will probably be slow.

According to the specifications it will do 30 frames/second with 512 pixels. With more pixels it will be slower.

For high speed control of many pixels, you should look at the Teensy and the OctoWS2811 library: https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

Hello friend, thanks for helping two people on your team showed me using OctoWS2811 + Teensy 3.1 to build -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mm92hWyzoXc or https://www.youtube.com/ watch? sLGi5a-LweA v = & list = UUtnIAI-dEm7LKytAgVTYqGg. My doubts are now:
1 Can you work with several meters with https://www.adafruit.com/products/1507?
2 To build that helmet led upstairs I would use only these two even OctoWS2811 + Teensy 3.1 ?

Thank you for helping me! Thank you so much

Please read the documentation for the OctoWS2811: https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html
Approximately 1000 LEDs per Teensy 3.0 or 4000 LEDs per Teensy 3.1 are recommended for large LED projects, to maintain high performance.
You will need a buffer such as this one to interface the Teensy with the strips: https://www.pjrc.com/store/octo28_adaptor.html

Friend think I'll have to use 2 Teensy 3.1 boards. You can use two Teensy 3.1 boards in a single OctoWS2811 adapter plate? Or do I have to buy 2 boards and 2 Teensy3.1 OctoWS2811 adapter?

Is possible to use 12 meters with 144 LED RGB LED Strip - 1m (1728 LEDs), with only one single Teensy 3.1 board with the OctoWS2811? Or I will have to use more Teensy?

The OctoWS2811 with Teensy 3.1 Adapter works with tape 144 (https://www.adafruit.com/products/1506)? How high can I use? What is the max?

According to the documentation, a single Teensy 3.1 should handle up to 4000 leds.

The Teensy has 8 pins to put 8 Led tapes, right? So if I use 1728 LEDs. I'll have to split the 1728 ÷ 8 = 216 So on each pin have to conctar 216 leds?

You do not need to use all 8 pins and not all strips have to be the same length. Please read the documentation. All of your questions are answered there:

olá tudo bem ? queria montar um projeto igual a esse -> http://community.arm.com/groups/embedde ... faire-2014 . Minha duvida é você tem essas 2 peças -Teensy 3.1 - OctoWS2811 Adaptor. Porém eu iria precisar desse componente WIZ820+SD Adaptor para guardar projetos no flash. Vocês teriam alguma peça com as mesmas funções do http://www.pjrc.com/store/wiz820_sd_adaptor.html ?
