Newbie....Please Help!!!

[Staudenmier]

I have LOR Showtime Central, running with SD card. I've downloaded the software on my computer as well as the MP3 files & sequences that I purchased.  I don't know what to do next!! How do I combine the audio with the sequences to put on SD card so that it will run the show when plugged into the show reader? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Simple Show Builder creates the SD card.

Thanks to Orville I can give you easy directions from a newbie.

1) Sequence

2) purchase MP3

3) audacity (free download)

4) run your MP3 through audacity

5) save at 128 kbs

6) Open Hardware utility

7) MP3 tab

8) add sequence

9) crest show

10) save to ad card

 

if anything is wrong the software will inform you.

Mist problems I had was that I saved my converted MP3 file in wrong folder on computer if you get error just rename the MP3 to where the HU is looking
