Hi!
I have a show on a grand ma (very simple, trads and a few parleds). Is it possible to create ASCII from grand ma and import it on LXCONSOLE?

thanks on advance !!!

Yes, it is possible. The traditional lights will work. LEDs are not specifically addressed in USITT ASCII. So, how they will export/import depends on how they are represented by the Grand MA.

A quick google search on the subject seems to indicate that the Grand MA will export with a .ALQ file extension. This will need to be changed to .asc for LXConsole to import the file.

As it seems this won't work for a GrandMA2, as you can only IMPORT ASCII files now. Bad.
