Step 15Premium - Erv's Crystal Focus
Well, if you have the money and the luck, Then the Crystal Focus is the way to go.
The Crystal Focus can be pruchased from here:
http://www.plecterlabs.com/catalog/
Follow the link to the "Electronic Modules". Just to warn you, these boards are pricey and they are very limited in quatity. Erv sells them in batches of about 80 boards and they sell out in about 5 minutes. He is currently on version 4.x.
To give you an idea what this board can do here is a link to the Crystal Fucus 3.0 Manual http://www.mediafire.com/file/hznmeummyyn/CrystalFocusSaberCoreV3.0-GB.pdf
(I put the file on a different website so as not to overload Erv's website).
A brief description:
* The CF can handle different types of high lumen LEDs. In addition it can provide power to multiple low power accent LED and make them blink in different ways.
* The main LED can be controled to gradually power up, gradually power down, shimmer, and flash on clash.
* Auxillary buttons can be used to add extra functions like blaster blocking, and lightsaber clash locks.
* The true power of the CF is the customizable sound "FONTS". Basically, you can create or download your own unique lightsaber sound. The master mixer of lightsaber sound fonts is NOVASTAR. Here is a link to his YouTube Channel to see the many things he can do with lightsaber sound fonts: http://www.youtube.com/user/greytale.
* The Crystal Focus CAN PLAY MUSIC. ANY music. Just copy it to the SD card.
The sound fonts are stored on an SD card. Thats right, the board has an SD card slot. I will not go into how to wire the Crystal Focus. The instruction manual Erv Plecter provides does a great job with that already. Download the PDF above if you really want to know how it all works.
