    So you do need more than 32 channels!
    The Show Control Module is just a serial number to add to your Master Licence which they could send via email – only need one; none required for the Slaves. In a way a good buy. Mine is from version 2, and every upgrade since did not require a Show Control Module upgrade.

    All the best in your show.

    Hi Thomas!

    Read one more time your posts…

    “Easiest is still time-code out of Wings to the Pangolin. If you do not have the Show Control Module, you can still grab a time-code wav file from somewhere (google; else I can send you one), put it on an Audio track and send it out of one audio channel. If you need to maintain the stereo for your soundtrack, then something like a multi-channel soundcard, or a Presonus, Motu or M-Audio multi-channel audio device (firewire or USB will work with Wings) will give you more audio channels.”

    I didn’t understand what are you talking about, and searching google for the answers. It is a pity, but I couldn’t find any info about “time-code wav file from somewhere”, “send it out of one audio channel”. Can you give me a diagram or something (from WP 4 to Pangolin, how it probably should work)? How it works? And after, I hope, I can find more about it.

    Did you buy the Show Control Module for your Wings? If yes, then right-click on an empty audio track and you will get to generate a time-code wave file which you can put on the track. Then assign it (from the track-head properties) to one of your stereo audio channels from your PC (left or right), and connect that to the Pangolin.

    Re the Pangolin, my search brought this up – https://www.pangolin.com/products/pricelist-smpte.htm
    Might be relevant to your unit/version of Pangolin.

    As for the Net having a timecode wave file, try this mp3 file, and maybe use Audacity to convert the mp3 to a wave file –
    https://www.modrec.com/tutorials/SMPTEtimecode.php
    Duration is short but enough to test a connection between the audio output of Wings PC to your Pangolin.

    Lastly try this. Install demo version of Wings 4, and enable Show Control Module in the Demo. Then try para 1 above and see if you can get timecode out of Wings 4 Demo.
