2-Day Hand-On xLights Training

April 16–17 • Chandler, AZ
Beginner → Advanced • Fully Hands-On

This 2-day xLights Sequencing Intensive is a hands-on, interactive course focused on what matters most: learning how to sequence with confidence, clarity, and purpose.

This is not a “Welcome to xLights” class. It’s designed for users who have worked in xLights before—whether you’ve sequenced a few songs or have years of experience—but want to better understand why things work, not just copy effects.

Over two days, the class builds progressively. We’ll start with strong sequencing fundamentals and workflow, then grow those concepts into more advanced techniques. The emphasis is on developing habits and processes that make sequencing faster, cleaner, and more musical.

You will be working inside xLights throughout the class. This is not a lecture-only session.

Layout and mapping are used during the course, but the focus remains sequencing first. Strong sequencing fundamentals naturally lead to cleaner layouts and simpler mapping decisions—not the other way around.

AI-assisted workflows will be introduced at a high level to demonstrate how AI can help with certain sequencing tasks (such as color palette exploration and prep work), while keeping creative control firmly in human hands.
