lv1-report

Report generator for Waves eMotion LV1 sessions.

This script extracts information from saved session (.emo) files for reference outside of the LV1 software.

As of this release, it supports the export of routing/patching information (Inputs, Outputs, and Device-to-Device routing) exported to an Excel (.xlsx) file.

Requirements

• A UNIX-like environemnt, such as:
  • Linux
  • macOS X
  • Windows running Git Bash
• Python (3.5 or greater)
  • virtualenv support preferred
  • in Windows, be sure you chose to add python to PATH at installation. Furthermore, in Windows 10, you may need to 'Manage app execution aliases' and uncheck the Python options.
• A session (.emo) file from Waves eMotion LV1, version 11 or greater.

Installation

Here is a video demonstrating the installation and usage of this script.

sh build.sh

# in Linux/macOS/etc:
source venv/bin/activate

# in Windows:
source venv/Scripts/activate

Usage

lv1report [OPTIONS] SESSION_FILE
Options:
  -f, --report-file PATH  Specify report file path, otherwise one will be
                          generated in the same directory as the session file.

Examples

lv1report "/c/Users/Public\Waves Audio\eMotion\Sessions/my_last_show.emo"

This will read the session "my_last_show.emo" from the default session location in Windows. It will then create an Excel file in the same folder, based on the name "my_last_show", along with the current date & time.

lv1report /Users/Shared/Waves/eMotion/Sessions/my_last_show.emo -f ~/Desktop/my_report.xlsx

This will read the session "my_last_show.emo" from the default session location on a Mac. It will then create an Excel file called "my_report.xlsx" on the Desktop.

Notes

If you are running this in a python virtual environment (the default if you run build.sh to install), be sure you activate it ("source venv...") before running lv1-report!
