Easy Way to import patch @ existing shows

[Oliver_74]

Hi,

I had a few colour leds patched pairwise, now each of those has it’s own chnl nr / dmx adress…

Since I work in a small theatre, where a lot of acts perform often, i have to change the patch in each existing show… 

is there a way to import a patch? 
 

thanks

Oliver

Hi @Oliver_74,

You can import patches (without other show file data such as memories) via Setup -> Load -> Select File -> 'Setup Only' or 'Setup & Palettes', which will load the console's setup (including patch, defaults, settings etc.), and palettes if specified.
Be aware that when loading files, it clears the previous show file on the desk, so make sure to create a backup.

You could create some 'sample' patch files by setting the patch up, and saving that file. Then, once you load one of those files, you can start programming straight away with your patch loaded in from a 'sample' file you created.

If you select 'Load Complete Show', it will load all data contained within that show file.

If you mean that you want to import a specific part of the patch into another show file's patch, this is unfortunately not possible.

Hope this helps.
