Creating And Editing A Macro Timeline - Sony MVS-8000X System User Manual

• On a macro timeline, only macro recall and execution actions are stored. The

timeline. It is necessary to create the macro data first.
• A macro timeline can be saved and recalled on the master timeline or a
shotbox register, but cannot be saved as a snapshot.
