Macro Control Overview

Each Macro Control can be assigned to one destination with the full range of the selected pa-
rameter. On the other hand, the same parameter can be the destination of more than one Mac-
ro Control.
To know which parameters you can assign to a Macro Control, consider this single rule:
A Macro Control of a channel can control any parameter located in the properties or Plug-ins of that
channel or of any underlying channel. In other words:
▪ For Sounds: You can assign the Macro Controls of a Sound to any parameters in its proper-
ties or Plug-ins. It is also possible to assign MIDI Control Change messages, Pitchbend and
Program Changes to Macro Controls in order to control external MIDI devices.
▪ For Groups: You can assign the Macro Controls of a Group to any parameters in its proper-
ties or Plug-ins as well as any parameters in any Sound inside the Group.
▪ For the Master: You can assign the Macro Controls to any parameters found in the proper-
ties or Plug-ins of any channel in your Project.
Obviously, the Macro properties (even of a different channel) are not available as targets
for any Macro Control.
