Hi,

I have the following script generated by the Explo software that I need to convert to another system – Pyrotronix PTX. This is just part of the script file that I have in excel.

 

BoxxNo. Explo (hh:mm:ss.ms) Distance Zündzeit Effektbezeichnung Art.Nr. Type Cal. Schuss Steigz Effektz Preis Gef.Kl. Piece Description
01×70 00:01.1 0:00:00 00:01.0 Aqua green star with gold will 31039 SINGLE SHOTS 1.2″ 1 0,1 3 0 1 60
05×70 00:01.1 0:00:01 00:01.0 Aqua green star with gold will 31039 SINGLE SHOTS 1.2″ 1 0,1 3 0 1 -60
02×70 00:02.7 0:00:00 00:02.6 Aqua green star with gold will 31039 SINGLE SHOTS 1.2″ 1 0,1 3 0 1 60
04×70 00:02.7 0:00:01 00:02.6 Aqua green star with gold will 31039 SINGLE SHOTS 1.2″ 1 0,1 3 0 1 -60
03×70 00:04.1 0:00:01 00:04.0 Aqua green star with gold will 31039 SINGLE SHOTS 1.2″ 1 0,1 3 0 2 V60
02×69 00:05.7 0:00:00 00:05.6 Aqua green star with gold will 31039 SINGLE SHOTS 1.2″ 1 0,1 3 0 1 -60

…..

 

Is there a way to import the files in Finale, so that I can later change the modules so that they correspond to the Pyrotronix system and generate the script files for the new system?

 

Best Regards

Yes, but you need to get your source data as a SHW file (the export format for the Explo Ignition System).  All you need to do is the menu item “File > Import > Import into new show > Explo SHW file”.  That will import your show!

 

After that, re-address the show for PTX.

 

If you only have your script in XLS or CSV format, you can import the show as a “do it yourself CSV” but that would require that you change the column names and convert the data manually.  When Finale imports a SHW file, it automatically applies various conversions of the data, since it knows the SHW format.
