|
|
PCGTools has a useful feature for changing program references in Combi's and Setlists. This is needed when you have a set of Combis that are assuming a standard factory layout of the programs. If you're like me, you have extensively customized your program layout since running out of program banks over 10 years ago (see Usage Reporter), so the "factory layout" is ancient history. PCGtools supports loading a file with the reference changes, but it can be tedious to create the file manually when it requires hundreds of entries. This script automates the process of creating the reference changer file. It reads the content listing of a PCG containing a bank of Combis that is using factory set references, and the patch listing of your current Kronos PCG to provide the current program locations.
The script will report if any of the programs referenced in the Combi bank do not exist in your current Kronos configuration. You can decide if you want to add those programs to your Kronos, or later manually edit the Combi to use a program that you do have.
The matching of the references is made by comparing program names. My personal convention is to save factory programs that I tweak with a new name, so I don't worry about a vastly modified program being matched as the original factory program. (PCGtools report generator does offer an optional CRC value, so you are free to modify the script confirm name matches as well as the CRC matching)
Download the Python script file here.
