Writing Screen Macros
Screen Macros can be used to automate functions on the mixer screen. Each macro is a recording of a sequence of
poins you touch on the screen, exactly as you did it. (This means that the starting point of the actions has an effect
on the proper working of the macro when it plays back!)
To access macros:
1.
Touch
SYSTEM
followed by
MACROS
On the acro Sheet, the 5 by 5 grid of rectangles represents the macros that can be stored into the system at one time.
Touching any icon immediately executes the macro. Alternatively, touch one of the commands at the bottom of the
screen, then the macro to be acted upon.
DEMO MODE
Starts a demonstration of all the macros in the system. This is intended for unattended demonstration of the system,
and is inappropriate for use in production.
SPEED
The execution speed of a macro can be varied. Click this button, then select the macro whose speed you want to
change. The screen will ask you to choose Normal or Fast, with Normal being the Debug speed.
ASSIGN
Allows you to attach any macro to any of the 6 User Keys on the console surface. Click this button, then the macro
to be assigned, and the system will ask you to choose a hardware button, or NO KEY if you want to deassign the
macro. Macros can also be assigned to the Shift function for the User Keys.
RECORD
Click this button, then the macro to be recorded (or over-recorded). The macro screen exits back to the default fader
screen, allowing you to touch any screen items.
When you have finished, touch the STOP icon in the lower left of the screen.
RENAME
Allows you to rename any macro.
