I have been trying to use bulk editor to convert my channels to some imported ones, but after I change all the numbers and it tries to save, I get a 380 error: invalid property, and it crashes the whole program.
Worse is that it seems to mess up the save somehow because when i reload it, it has lost 13 channels, totally gone?? very weird.
Anybody have an idea what does the error. I can manually change the channels individually,but I have 25 songs to do, so that kinda stinks.

Think I've seen this happened for me as well from time to time. I think the work around I did was to not try and do too many changes at one time..  Change some, save file, change some more, save again, change more - you get the idea.
 
I didn't try to figure out if there's some cutoff point or something unique I was doing where the error happens.

That's exactly why I was editing on a one by one basis, but them got bit by the single edit screen locking up if I use CTRL modifier, so I just typed everything out the long way for every channel.

All the more reason to get into the habit of saving new versions with a different name (i.e.: SongNameV1.dls, SongNameV2.dls, etc.) so that you can always go back to the last complete version of a sequence.

Closing Aurora between working on different sequences is a good habit for now as well.

I was a frequent saver until I moved a channel and it corrupted a bunch of other stuff.

I save before every few plays.
I do maintain off-site backups though.
