10.8. Partial Show Read
Partial Show Read is a function used to import elements from one show into a different show.
The setup of the two shows are compared and you can choose what setup is wanted or a mix can be chosen.
After the comparison - called initialization - then access is granted to a new menu where different wanted elements
can be chosen for import.
The actual process is more complex, but this is the idea. Please read the
chapters to learn more
about it.
10.9. ASCII Show Read
The grandMA2 can currently import shows from
Strand
,
Transtechnik
,
and
ADB
consoles, that have made an ASCII
export of the show.
The import will read the ASCII file and and create fixture profiles based on the text. It does not import fixture profiles
from the library.
ASCII importing does not give you a perfect show. You can get the setup and the show data, but might need to
make a lot of adjustments to have a show that look the same.
It is only possible to import an ASCII show from the USB tab in the Backup Menu.
When the
ASCII Show Read
button is selected in the tab, then a ASCII file needs to be selected.
The Overview
After a file have been selected, then the ASCII Show Read pop-up is displayed. This pop-up is separated into
different tabs. The first one is called
Overview
and could look like this:
