Saving Macros
Each Project may contain its own set of customised macros. Having made changes or
additions, make sure you save them in the Project File Settings pop-up. See Section 2
for more details.
Fader Macros
This facility is designed to trigger up to eight pre-defined macros from a specific fader
level. When the fader reaches that level, the macro will turn on; as soon as the fader
moves below the level, the macro turns off. Only Direct and Indirect macros,
numbered 1-21, can be used with this function.
Having first defined the macro, set the relevant fader to the required trigger point.
Now select Fader Macros from the FILE/SETUP/Desk Setup menu (see opposite),
and enter the Fader Number, Fader Type (Large or Small), the Macro Layer (Bank) and
Macro Number. Fader Macros have their own entry in a Project File and can therefore
be saved and restored at will. Channels can be disconnected from the macro function
by selecting Clear and then stabbing on the fader number.
Macros and the Events List
Macros can be entered in the Events List so that they may be actioned at a specified
timecode value. This will be extremely useful in a variety of applications. For example,
console snapshots (see Section 5) can be recalled to provide a change in output routing
or FX Send assignments. Note that only Direct and Indirect macros, numbered 1-21,
can be used with this function.
Select Events from the MIX-DESK menu to reveal the Events List. Macros will be
inserted in the list at the current Desk timecode position, so locate the point where you
wish the macro to be actioned. Now stab on Insert in the Events List Edit menu.
You will be asked to select an ‘action’ to insert, either an On Macro or Off Macro,
which represent the turning on or off of the macro at the selected timecode point.
Remote On and Off relate to RelayBox closures (see Section 7).
Having made your choice, the Macro Name pop-up will appear, from which you may
select the required bank (MSel 1-5) and macro number. As soon as you make your
selection, the pop-ups will clear to reveal your macro in the Events List (see opposite).
The macro will now be actioned each time you pass that event time.
