user29810: Sorry if this is too basic, but I am very new to arduino and electronics. I come from programming, I am trying to start a project where I can control an RGB led strip, I want to be able to control the light intensity and color of the light strip (something like this), using a microphone.
My goal is for frequency to control de color of the rgb light and the dB (Volume) to control the light intensity. I have found several microphones such as this ones. Can I get both frequency and dB input from this microphones?
Would I need some extra controllers for this project? Again I am very new with this, sorry by the basic questions.

user16085: It would be worth checking out the ColorChord project.  It runs on an ESP8266, not an Arduino, but it ought to get you going.
