Proffie V2.2 Lightsaber Soundboard
Proffieboard V2.2 is an open-source lightsaber control platform designed for enthusiasts who want deeper customization of sound fonts, blade styles, colors, motion response, and effects.
Compared with simpler preset-based cores, Proffie V2.2 gives advanced users greater control over how a Neopixel lightsaber looks, sounds, and responds. That flexibility also comes with a steeper learning curve and a more technical configuration process.
What Is Proffie V2.2?
Proffieboard V2.2 is a programmable lightsaber soundboard and control system. In a compatible Neopixel configuration, it manages sound fonts, blade colors, ignition effects, motion response, clash effects, and custom blade styles. It is best suited to users who value customization and are comfortable working with a more advanced configuration environment.
Proffie V2.2 Features
Proffie combines Neopixel blade control with an open and highly configurable electronics platform.
Advanced Customization
Proffie supports extensive configuration of sound fonts, blade styles, colors, effects, controls, and other supported saber behaviors.
Pixel Blade Control
Compatible Neopixel blades use LEDs distributed throughout the blade, enabling bright illumination, scrolling ignition, localized effects, and animated blade styles.
Smooth Swing
Motion-responsive audio changes dynamically as the saber moves, creating a more immersive relationship between physical movement and the sound produced by the hilt.
Dynamic Blade Effects
Supported configurations can include effects such as Flash on Clash, lock-up, blaster effects, drag or melt effects, and multiple custom blade styles.
Custom Sound Fonts
Sound fonts can be managed through the microSD card, allowing advanced users to modify the audio experience alongside compatible configuration settings.
Configurable Motion Controls
Compatible configurations can support gesture-based functions such as twist controls and other motion-triggered actions, depending on the installed configuration.

What Makes Proffie Different?
The main reason to choose Proffie is not simply the number of preset effects. Its advantage is the level of control available to users who want to customize their saber.
Go Beyond Preset Controls
Many lightsaber cores are designed around preset menus and app-based controls. Proffie takes a more technical approach, allowing users to create and modify configurations for a more personalized saber experience.
- Customize compatible blade styles
- Manage sound fonts
- Adjust colors and visual effects
- Configure supported controls and gestures
Designed for Advanced Blade Effects
Combined with a Neopixel blade, Proffie can control individual blade effects rather than simply illuminating the entire blade from the hilt.
- Scrolling ignition and retraction
- Multiple blade styles
- Flash on Clash and lock-up effects
- Customizable visual behavior
Gesture & Motion Controls
Proffie can support configurable motion-based controls, depending on the installed configuration.
Gesture Functions Depend on Your Configuration
Functions such as twist-based ignition, retraction, and other motion-triggered actions can be configured on compatible setups. Available gestures are determined by the configuration installed on the saber and should not be assumed to be identical across every Proffie model.
