After scratching my head about how bad Igniter sounded I finally used my brain and had a revelation. People have been sending beta fonts to me at 44100kz sample rate like I saw in the manual. So thats what I was using. It turns out what it likes is 22050khz. After converting a ton of files I am happy to report that two weeks of tracking down and downloading about 20 audio programs and ripping samples from all the movies did not go to waste. :D
Now the main thing to understand about making fonts for this board (red one) is everything below about 150 to 200khz must be 90db down in the files that run in on mode. The hum may need a little more removed depending on volume and content. The saber tracks and boots need no extra work to sound good.
Here is a video of my font so far. Its not done yet but close.
My camera does not pick up sound that great, it's better in person. Without bias' no joke I am impressed by how this setup sounds. Feel free to ask questions. I really have spent some time refining the sound for this saber and learned a few things.
More When the 40w saber is done. Should be soon. ;D
