tkeith_2001 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I'm a Newbie and just got my system a few weeks ago. I have done 3 or 4 sequences and am trying to transfer them to another laptop that I want to use to run my show. I copied the sequences to a SD card but when I try to open them on the other computer I get errors saying it can't find the music files. How do I transfer them so they will work on the other computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Simmons Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Welcome Aboard!You need to copy your music files to the new machine also. Then, open the sequence, go to EDIT, MEDIA FILE and tell it where the music is. Sorry it took so long to answer your question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkeith_2001 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Thanks for getting back to me guys. This has been a fun and frustrating experience. I'm still not sure what the difference is between using music or animation sequences so for now I am just doing music sequences. I also just got a color ribbon instead of building arches. I think I can program it as just another controller. Wish me luck with that. I'll let you know how that turns out. Good to see another Kentucky boy here, makes it like family.Thanks Again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkeith_2001 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 So how do you match the animations up with the music? It would be nice not to have to copy and paste as much if I could just add loops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wbottomley Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Put all of your music on the same audio folder on the second pc. Then, use Drop Box (free account) to transfer between both computers.Link: http://db.tt/dRY9RlhDisclaimer: I will get an extra 250mb space if you use the link above to sign up.

tkeith_2001 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 I'm not sure, like I said I'm not sure how they work so I'll have to play around with it to see what works. Thanks for all your help. Got to get to bed now my head is full thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
