.ASC Import from Express

Hey all. I am doing a show that I programmed on an Express but the theater has a smartfade. I took the file from the console opened it on EOL 3.11 and exported the show onto a newly formated SD card. I can see all my show data by opening the show in notepad. However when i try to open the showfile on the smartfade I get an error that just says show not loaded. Whats up? What do I have to do to get this show into the cue stack on the Smart fade?

Any help I can get will be great!

Thanks.

  • Hi,

    The SmartFade uses an internal structure for its show data that is different from most other consoles. Therefore, it can only read SmartFade show files by default.

    However, if you want to try reading your show file into SmartFade anyway (it might work ok if you only use a main sequence), you could try changing the line starting with "Console" in the beginning of the .ASC file to "Console SMARTFADE". You should then be able to read the main sequence with Up/Down times.
