I am planning to buy 4 of these movingheads. Does anyone know if it's hard to change an existing program to work with these movingheads?
Thanks in advance!

If you mean a sequence, most probably you need to completely remake those.
Unless the DMX channels, gobos, color and other values are EXACTLY the same as where the sequence was made for. Chances for that: about zero.

another "hack" you can do is to use the patch feature in freestyler. for example patch the from the old pan channel (which is programmed in the old sequences) to the new pan channel, and so on. a bit time consuming.
The big and expensive lighting desks can do this automatically, but i doubt this smart feature will be implemented in FS in the near future

Still there may be difference in colors, gobo's, strobing, and almost all other features but pan and tilt.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.
I want to create a fixture file out of an existing fixture file, because there's no fixture for this movinghead yet.

X-Tase making Fixtures is easier than it looks its 500% easier when you have the light yourself which is why a lot of us shy away from making fixtures check this out on how to make one

Thanks. I will look at it as soon as I have to movinghead.
