With Xeno3, you have to turn off the twist on/off motion controls for this to work. If those are enabled, they override music play and other cool twist functions. To get these twist functions back, go into the config file and disable twist on, and twist off advance, motion options. Also, a lot of Xeno saber don’t come with music tracks, so nothing will happen. You may need to add tracks to your fonts on the SD card, as well as the config file change.
Ive done all that and i know my saver has voice lines because ill hear the count talk randomly while im playing with my lightsaber on but i cant seem to figure out exactly what to do to trigger them. Ive tried everything.
Not only did you guide me through finding which lightsaber I should get and where to buy it from, you’re now teaching me how to use it. The only thing left is how to clean it and how hard am I allowed to hit it against stuff
Great video. I love the Xenopixel board. I find it is flexible enough to meet my needs when costuming without being so complicated that I need a cheat sheet to operate it. The twist to change sound font also cycles in the opposite direction to changing the sound font with the button so you can go backwards and forwards through the sound fonts which is very handy when trying to find a particular sound font if you have a lot of fonts onboard. Now that the major players in the sound font business are offering Xenopixel ready fonts adding more fonts has never been easier.
I watched video's about the kill switch what does it do does it save the battery life do have to turn it off or on I've charged the battery and just wanted to know if I have to do something with the kill switch.
For some reason when I hold the button for 4 seconds to turn off the blade it also changes the blade sound/type. Am I doing something wrong or is it the blade? Also, is there a way I can reset the blade so I can have all the colors and sounds back to their original style/color/sound? For example, a Luke style sound, purple font, stack ignition. Anyway this can be reset to default?
you don't have to hold the button for 4 seconds to turn it off, it does change the soundfonts/styles because if you hold the button for 4 blinks it changes the soundfont
Good video jim 👍 everyone learns diffrently and alot of us like visual demanstraitions as opposse to written instructions so these videos are realy cool. .id love an Obi Wan Kenobi hilt at some point and that ForceSabers Fallen Prince looked great with a blue blade and a blue button !💙
i have a v3 dooku curve hilt but whenever i twist to turn on or off it never works. it only works when i remove the chassis and i turn the chassis to turn it on and off. whenever i change the sensitivity on the app it doesn’t do anything, anyone help?
Hey guys I know the video is a bit old but my Xenopixel tip drag function does not work when I press one flash and release. But it does work with the app. Maybe they forgot to code it properly? Any tips besides returning it?
I just need to know how to turn the first saber in the video off. The Light is on the button and stays on for ages before shutting down. Can anyone tell me how. Thanks. 🤜🤛
I lost track when your blade was blue then next it was red how many flashes do you have to do to change colour only after you first turn it on do you have to go through all those different flashes to get there.
Does anyone know why when I twist upright it just turns the blade on rather than the music? It does that no matter the angle. I managed to turn the music on once while assembling mine but never again after
The new Xeno V3 doesn't have music on them anymore due to copyright, also with the other motion controls it overrides what would've been music (there are a few holdovers from before, which is why you may have heard it once)
I bought a Mando 2.0 SN4.0 lightsaber from CCSabers, it has almost all the functionalities you showed in the video, but everytime i try to use tip drag, it won’t work. It only has one button
I just had got mine today, still learning how to use it BUT my blade isn't turning on like its supposed to. I'm not sure if I messed something up or what but if anyone can help it would be much appreciated
On my blade I found that I can do it with the same twist motion to turn off but I press the button just after the reverse from clockwise to counter-clockwise
I just got a Xeno3, and it’s pretty awesome so far. The speaker on mine sucks, but my Proffie is too complicated for me. I’ve tried multiple times to mess with the config files with no luck. I just do the copy and paste method.
I know how to activate tip drag, but I've seen multiple videos using "wall melt". Was wondering if they're the same thing or not (and if not, how to activate it)
How do you disable the flash on clash, the sensitivity for it is way too high and since I swing this around alone it clashes constantly making it very obnoxious. I know there is a setting for it in the instruction manual but if I hold it down long enough it only changes the sound font
Hi, I love your video, but I have a question, and a problem with my xenopixel saber, I got this Saber Source its a Padawan Saber, So I just changed everything to my preferences, like the colors, and how it starts up, but after charging it, it resets to default, and everything, to the colors, to the effects, and it takes a long time for me to fix all of these, how can I come back to those preffered settings, and prevent it from coming back to default.
Ah yeah I've had that issue in the past, you need to make sure there are no config files in the soundfont folders themselves otherwise it will default to those, also when you open your config file is it saved correctly how you want it or is that going back to default?
@thedrewydewy I haven't done a tutorial on how to access the sd card and config no, but if you look up a channel called Paul's Stuff hr has all those kinds of videos!
i have one question i got my saber yesterday i saw on the sd card there are diffrent sound fonts when they speak how do i go through them if i twist while blade is down then it just goes back to the old one but i wanna go through anakins voice lines on the one font how do i do that?
Unfortunately you can't just listen to the voice lines on the same font over and over, that's basically the font sound so you know what font it is, if you have like 3 fonts on a certain sound it will be random as to what the saber plays when you switch to that sound font
i have a non exposed button lightsaber from neosabers the luke skywalker one. and i cant seem to figure out how to play music or get the voice lines? if anyone know help me out. do i have do download them to have any of them. doesn't the factory version come with music and voice lines
My buddy over at Paul's Stuff has a couple of good videos on how to add soundfonts and other things to the SD Card, here's a link to one of them! ruclips.net/video/mtdniAsVT_k/видео.html
@@FulcrumForce once you have voice lines installed how do you make them play I have a lightsaber without a visible button I made it play on accident but I don’t know how to do it again
Ok so, you will have all the ignition styles it's just getting to them, the difficult part with a saber with a switch clamp is the timing, 1 sec is volume, 2 secs is blade style, 3 secs is ignition style, 4 secs is sound font, it's just about learning those timings!
Just received my first xeno! Awesome video. One thing, when my blade is off, I tilt up and twist for the music but it only reignites the blade. I’ve tried different angles and such and still haven’t been able to initiate any music through the hand gesture :( … got advice?
Just received a starkiller lightsaber as a birthday present for my boyfriend. Im afraid i have no clue about the lightsabers. I could switch it on and off, also by motion control. But it doesnt play any music wether i i do the movement with the blade up or down. Any advice? I think the soundtracks and character voices are the best thing on lightsabers. Without them it would be a shame to gift 😔
@@FulcrumForce thank you for expanding. Where can I find these sounds and music for download? Or would you have/recommend a video with instructions? Thanks in advance.
I've seen videos showing Xenopixel V2. Is that a completely different board from Xenopixel? Or is it supposed to be an update for all Xenopixel boards? I wanted to ask because I didn't know if Saberforge Eco Xenopixel sabers had the V2 (if it's a separate board). Or if they could be upgradable (if it's just meant to be a simple update).
So the current run of xenopixel boards are all V2, v1 is super old and not in many sabers, in fact I've never even seen a v1 board! Having said that V3 is about to come out and that's a whole new board with new features! And apparently has a an app for it too
@@FulcrumForce Thank you for the fast reply! I didn't know a V3 was coming out. I may have to hold off and wait for that. When it does, will companies offering Xenopixel's switch to it immediately or stick with the V2 for a while?
@Crows Nest Gamer so any new sabers built from here on out will be v3, stock of v2 will still be out there for a while I imagine, but I know for sure the new lgt Dooku is definitely going to be v3
The gesture controls are really awkward with a dooku saber. The core is in the curved part of the blade. Still, no regrets since it's my favorite lightsaber xD

You can totally dual with xenopixels, I've used them tons and the only thing I've noticed is that after being used for like 6 months plus in duelling the blade has started to bend, but then as you can get the blade on its on it's not a huge problem!

My only question is, how to activate the “force” effect on the lightsaber. Do you just tap and it effects for force sound?
been looking for the same answer and can’t find it but crazy thing is i did it on accident once
On my blade I found that I can do it with the same twist motion to turn off but I press the button just after the reverse from clockwise to counter-clockwise
