This will show up in EOS as an extra part in the DMX patch. If an Obsession fixture has a remote dimmer and it is patched then the remote dimmer will be patched in EOS as a generic dimmer with the same EOS channel as the fixture. The EOS channel number will be the same as the file's desk channel number for conventional dimmers and the same as the starting desk channel for fixtures. If there are no reasonable matches, then the device is patched as a generic dimmer and all level data for parameters other than intensity are lost. If there are reasonable matches then the best match is used. Effects, Libraries and dimmer profiles are not imported.Īn attempt is made to match Obsession personalities to EOS personalities.Channels in these files are always desk channels.Obsession files include all the items that are in generic files plus moving light fixtures, scrollers, timecode events and more complex cues, groups, and submasters and effects. The USITT channel and label messages are supported. Since groups are often used as both channel lists and level sets ASCII groups are translated into EOS as both groups and presets. All standard USITT submaster messages are supported including times, channels and label. The original submaster number and page are prepended to the label in the form (page/submaster) (Sub n Page n).

The incoming submasters will be numbered sequentially. Since EOS does not have submaster pages, incoming submasters must be renumbered when they're read in. All standard USITT cue messages are supported including times, channels, label, link, follow and parts. Cue list 1 will be labeled "Imported from USITT ASCII". Patch proportion is not implemented at this time.Īll cues are read into EOS cue list 1. Channels that appear in the file (in cues, subs etc) but are not patched in the file will be patched as generic dimmers without EDMX addresses in EOS. The EOS channel number will be the same as the desk channel number from the file. Channels in these files are always desk channels.Īll dimmers will be patched as generic dimmers in EOS. Generic files include a dimmer patch, simple cues, simple submasters and groups.
