hi this might help this is what i was told about a month ago (CLICK HERE)

 

yes, it's possible to import this. You need to first translate the show from SSF to ASCII (ALQ) using the "Show port" utility which is available on the Strand website - http://www.strandlight.com/US/softwares.html

 

Once you have the show file in ALQ format, copy it onto a USB stick and load it into the desk as normal. It should load fine however there will be a few things you'll need to do -

*Effects wont be programmed

*Chases wont be programmed

*Groups get translated to palettes as best we can, but of course will need updating

 

The fixtures will be imported as "Fixture Type 1" "Fixture Type 2" etc, as the ALQ format doesnt contain the name of the fixture itself. Use the "Change Type" button in Edit Fixtures to change it to use the internal fixture profile, then repatch the fixture as required.

 

I hope this helps - let us know how you get on,

:blink:;)
