This is truly  amazing  Work... quite a masterpiece. I must say I'm not really into Rock or Metal music but these sound fonts got me banging my head. lol...   Really need to say that this community is lucky to have you... Seriously.  I mean that... all the work you put into making these soundfont packages IS INCREDIBLE. THANK YOU. i bought a ultrasaber like 6 months ago and fell in love with the customization part of it.. I don't cosplay or battle, just like the whole tinkering and customizing of these things.. Son of darkness is the one i like the most.. Well, thank you again, and cheers from California..

My new saber font “LIGHTNING” is now available for download!

As was the case with my previous fonts, this is not just a collection of sounds, but a complete collection of synchronized LED effect files as well. The full collection includes 183 sound files in both WAV and LSU formats, 70 UltraSabers Launcher Effect files, and 3 complete font files.

You can download everything at the following link:

http://www.darkpath.media/lightning

I have also put together an overview and tutorial video for this font package. It is similar to the overview and tutorial videos I did for "Son of Darkness" and "Hardwired" in terms of structure, but I spend less time covering things that have already been addressed in those videos, and get to the effects overview faster. The video goes through every single sound and accompanying LED effect via a split window display showing the UltraSabers Launcher software on one side and a saber displaying the effects in real time on the other.

The video is quite long, but only because I included an extended bonus section at the end that shows the cutting/editing process of creating "Lightning".

Here is an overview of the video sections:

BASIC TUTORIAL WITH DEFAULT FONT OVERVIEW - 14 Minutes

ADDITIONAL EFFECTS OVERVIEW - 23 MINUTES

BONUS CONTENT: AUDIO EDITING - 20 MINUTES

I have also included a Chapter Index Below if you wish to reference specific content:

The video is embedded below for your convenience, and a direct link to the same video on YouTube is listed below it for those who cannot view embedded videos within this forum:
