Converting show file from Strand to ADB Phoenix

Recommended Posts

Has anyone successfully converted a show file from a Strand 500 series to an ADB Phoenix 5?

The show isn't particularly complex - no moving lights, scrollers, or other attributes, but does make heavy

use of part cues.

 

Ordinarily, I'd just hire a 520 for the week, but I don't think we've got the budget for that this time round.

 

Thanks,

 

Simon.

I'm not familiar with the ADB Phoenix 5, but if there's a way to make it understand ASCII files, you could use Showport (available from Strand's website) to convert your SSF file into ASCII format to throw at the ADB.

I'm aware of Showport - it's what I'd normally use when going from Strand -> ETC. I just can't find any useful

information about the Phoenix and whether it can accept ALQ files.

 

Oh, and Showport doesn't seem to like this particular show file - keeps crashing whenever I try and convert it, but

that's a whole other story ...
