Macros are recorded literally as a series of keystrokes. When you record a level
setting command such as [1] [>] [10] [@] [FULL], the macro will work in any
display that accepts that command syntax. If you want to have the macro work
only in a designated display, such as Stage, press the display key as the first
keystroke in the macro.
Be aware that different displays can interpret the same keystrokes differently.
For example, the command [12] [@] [5] [ENTER] has different results in the
Stage and Patch displays. In the Stage display it sets channel 12 at 50%, while
in the Patch display it patches channel twelve to dimmer 5. This is why you
should sometimes start the macro with a display key.
When you start a new show, or clear the console memory, all macros are erased
with the exception of macro 100. Macro 100 is always [GO TO CUE] [0]
[ENTER] by default. You may record over macro 100, or any other previously
recorded macro.
