Channel Config

Unless you are *really* savvy with Excel exports and XML file creation, then it isn't possible.

 

I want to say someone wrote something once that might do this, but don't recall who.

I don't know if i posted anything about it but i am in the process of making mine with Excel. The Channel Config file is just an XML. Once you figure out the formatting it is pretty easy to edit. You can also do this with the Visualizer File btw.

I haven't used Excel to change my channel config, but I use to to figure out what channels I've used and to make it easier to find unused or duplicated channels.

 

Just go into Excel, navigate to your sequences directory, put in *.* so that it sees all the files and pick a saved channel config file to open.

It will prompt you if you want to open as an xml table, then ignore that there is no schema and it imports it really nicely.

I imagine with some trial and error it wouldn't be too hard to export.

 

In terms of adding lots of channels I use Bob's Vegomatic.

I just Edit it in Multi-Edit, which is basically a paid version of Notepad++, then i use excel to make formulas that input information into the Text, then copy paste the text from excel into Multi-Edit.
