Patch Importer

Import selective patch data from a CSV or MVR file into your show to create new or update existing fixtures!

Key Features

A plugin to help import patch information from a CSV document, often sent by a Gaffer or exported by software such as WYSIWYG or a partial MVR read. This plugin can modify existing fixtures to match the new information, or create new fixtures with the data provided.

CSV Import

Select your CSV from the files list, select headers from your CSV to match up with the MA3 patch properties to import data. You can then create new fixtures from spreadsheet data, or amend current patch data with imported data.

MVR Import

Patch Importer allows you to partially import or update data from an MVR file, allowing you to merge multiple MVR files into one GMA3 show or make changes to your original MVR file and import only the changes to your existing show. This can be very useful if the positional data of the fixtures in the MVR has changed and you want to update the 3D positions of the fixtures within your showfile with this new data.
