How to export a MVR file from Depence and import it into a grandMA3
Depence has a limited MVR export feature. Currently it can't export 3D models and it uses dummy fixtures. It will export the patch, fixture ID, and fixture position.
The following steps will explain how to export the MVR file from Depence, import them into the grandMA3 and replace the dummy fixtures with the correct fixtures in the grandMA3 software.
Move the fixtures into a layer, if not already done. Layers
Go to File->Export->Export MVR.
Select the layers, which you want to export and click Export
Copy the MVR file onto a USB stick into the folder "grandMA3/shared/resource/lib_mvr" or if you use the grandMA3 on PC software, you can copy it into the folder "C:\ProgramData\MALightingTechnology\gma3_x.x.x\shared\resource\lib_mvr"
