Description
The Preset Sorter helps you organize your preset pools based on how they’re actually used in a sequence. It scans a chosen sequence, identifies which presets are referenced and in what order, and then sorts those presets accordingly.
With a built-in dry-run mode, you can preview the sorting order before making any changes.
The result is a cleaner preset pool, faster programming, and a showfile that’s easier to understand, maintain, and archive.
Compatibility & notes
- V1.3 2025-12-26, Release notes.
- 1. Changed name from Archivist to Sorter
- 2. Added a built in dry run instead of a separate plugin.
- 3. Changed behaviour of non references presets to two choices, ignore or move after gap.
- Platform: grandMA3 consoles & onPC .
- Recommended version: MA3 v2.2+ (developed & tested on 2.3.2).
- Scope: Operates on one preset pool at a time; repeat per pool type (Position/Color/Gobo/etc.).
- Show safety: The plugin reorders pool items; it does not modify cue data and sequence references are based on absolute references. Preset object identity is preserved when moving within the same pool, but external macros or workflows that assume fixed pool numbers may need review.
- In multi-user sessions: run from the session master and avoid concurrent edits to the same pool. Save after completion.
