ETC Express 48/96 - Using Submasters in Macros

Express Two Scene Preset User Manual, v.3.1 231
Using submasters in macros
Submaster bump buttons can function in macros in three different ways:
1. as a normal bump button;
2. to always fade a submaster to full (regardless of its current condition);
3. to always fade a submaster out (regardless of its current condition).
To include a bump button that starts a timed submaster or changes the
direction of a running fade, press the submaster bump button while
programming the macro.
Use [S1], On Sub-Bump, to fade the submaster up, regardless of its
current setting. Use [S2], Off Sub-Bump, to fade a submaster out,
regardless of its current setting.

it off, follow these steps:
