Hello! Smiley
I have my new Sentinel staff and Flamberge CE, and am loving them! My thing, though, are sounds. And I would like to make a sound font of my own.

I have the .wav files here. I read the topic about converting. But how do I go to upload the .lsu files into the saber? The sounds wizard shows only the .wav files, no? O.O

I would appreciate if you could help your blindy out! Wink MTFBWY!

You need to down load Audicity first. Then follow these steps in this link.

I have Audacity already and I saved the .wav file following the steps. Is the LSU converting utility in the UltraSaber launcher itself, or a different standalone program? If it's in the launcher I'll need sighted assistance, as the screen reader application does not speak in the launcher at all. :/

Your probably going to need help. The link I provided tells you what you need to do. The Obsidian launcher folder should have what your looking for. Once it's open you can upload the .wav file.

OK thanks. Smiley I'll try to get it working and post the font here once it's done Smiley
Does it matter if the files are .wav or .lsu? I'm asking because the files in the sounds folder are .lsu, bootup.lsu for instance, but in the font I downloaded (Battlefront Darth Vader and Luke) from here, the files are .wav. Is there a limit of how many clashing, motioning etc sounds there can be?
And the last question for now, sorry for asking so much... Is there a limit on how many fonts your saber can have? As in, should I be worried that the memory runs very low?
I appreciate the help I've gotten here! Smiley

The wav I believe is converted by the launcher to LSU. I think you have to load a wav file. I don't know if there is another way. I don't know if you can use just an LSU. I'm guessing you can. When uploading fonts it all depends on your boot up sound length and other files your loading. For instance you'll want to shorten your lockup so it fits and it just loops so it doesn't have to be that long. Same with the hum. I usually get about seven swings and seven clashes. You can get more just depends. You just start loading and you can tell how much room you have left. Once it hits a 100% load you will have to subtract some of the files so it fits.  You may have to shorten some of the files you are loading. Don't write the files to the board if your load capacity is over 100% it will mess up your board and you will have to erase all your fonts and reformat your sound board.

Thank you! Smiley I'll keep that in mind. I'll let you know how the font uploading goes once I have a sighted person to help me with it. Cheesy

Both LSU and WAV work on both my Obsidian v3 and V4 boards. So long as they're in the correct sample rate, they should work fine. I have never converted to LSU, and my WAV files work fine on both boards. I've never known why LSU was needed, other than for older launchers/boards.

If you have the V3 soundboard then you can change out one sound bank if it's a V4 then you have I think 6 banks you can load.

V4 boards can have up to a certain number of fonts (more than 8 at least) but they'll each be smaller the more you make. It's similar to a partition on a USB stick.
