FYI: The channels are keyed by their Network, Device, and Channel settings, not their position within the grid (which is arbitrary). If those settings are edited between the original and the template then the template will not overlay properly.
Maybe someone less technical than I am can translate this into English for me. Edited by LightsOnLogan - 05 Sep 2008 at 5:01pm |

I just imported my first (original 32 ch) d-light sequence. It imported fine. Then I tried to import my new 64 channel Aurora template. The only thing that stayed from the original 32ch imported sequence was the song. Events were deleted and channels and their colors were all overwritten by the new 64ch Aurora template.
Looking for a better way...

Let me take this one step further:
It sounds like you want to use a continues sequence??? meaning 1 sequence that consist of 4 or 5 songs to make one big sequence?? I might be off base but that is what I am assuming.
I would break that into 5 seperate songs then just add those 5 songs to your scheduler. maybe an intro announcement and then a thank you at the end (intro and outro have their own places in the scheduler)
I am prolly off base but that is how I understood you.

Of course! Just import the sequence to Aurora, save it, and add to the Scheduler.

ok heres a question... This year I'm making a 14 minute show, last year was my first year so I only had a one song 4 min show. That same song is going to be in this years show. Is there a way to "copy & paste" that show into this years show? thanks

Workarounds... kinda reminds me of Spectrum. lol This would be alot simpler if we could cut and paste between sequences. Edited by TheQueb - 04 Sep 2008 at 10:35pm |

They'll over write the channel color, channel description, the display picture, and the items you have drawn on the display picture the way you've set then in the 'template file'.
Does NOT over-write any of the events. Will add the channels that you want to add as they were defined in the 'template file'

I agree this works for any one sequence, but I would rather not do this for each and every one of them. I am going from 16 to 128 channels. It could take a while to append each sequence with the new channels. Carey |

When you import channels, they just add to what you already have in a sequence? or over-write channels?
Sorry for all of the questions. I could probably figure it out for myself..... but why do that when someone else already has!! |
