I mentioned it in my review - Since the official tutorials for the diamond saber don't use direct feed (which makes the footage kinda hard to make out), I thought I should make my own tutorial videos concerning the diamond saber and how to create new effects with the new launcher. I hope that I can help some people creating their own effects. I also hope I didn't mess up with the language, since I talk a lot in this video and after all I am german, so I might mix up some expressions or use false friends instead of idioms. Have fun with it.

Yes. Standard color is green, but arctic blue has become my favorite color for my saber.

This is a really helpful tutorial, and I didn't notice any problems with the language at all. Pretty cool stuff. I've only begun to familiarize myself with the new software, unfortunately. Haven't had the time to fiddle more, but oh yes, I will be fiddling away at it soon.

Point to you for the help you're offering this community. It's awesome.  Wink

Good to hear. There was a time when I lived with native speakers, but that was a long time ago, and with every passing year I have the feeling of losing touch with the language, since I don't get to use it that often.
Also, I am glad to be of service Smiley

I hear ya. Same thing happened to me once I no longer lived among native Spanish speakers. Another point! The Force is strong with you.  Smiley

Funny enough: when I hear dutch, I can understand parts of what you say, because it shares similarities with german. However, I can't speak a single word.. Oh wait, I can say Bankautomaat XD And I have been visiting the Netherlands constantly. *cough cough

karaokefreak,

I watched your tutorial as a "preview" for what I will be up to tonight on my homeworld of Endor (where we play "Lub Dub" on a loop 24-7)...  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Point & a hearty thanks for explaining how to replicate a light pattern using the repeat function for longer .wav file sync, as well as just being good at making web video tutorials in general.  The camerawork is strong with this one!
