Macro Timelines

Overview

A macro timeline is an effect timeline for macros.
You can execute macros in sequence by setting macro
recall/execute actions at keyframe points on an effect
timeline.
There are 99 effect timeline registers that can be used in a
macro region.
Notes
• Up to 99 macros can be executed simultaneously using
a single macro timeline.
• If multiple macros are executed at the same time, the
output may not be reproduced according to the timing
registered in the macro timeline.
• Actions configured on a macro timeline are executed
only when the macro timeline is operating in the normal
direction.
• The following cannot be set in a macro timeline.
– Keyframe loop
– Effect timeline loop
– Reverse direction execution
– Normal/reverse direction execution
– Keyframe path
Macro timeline operations
You can operate a macro timeline using the [RUN]
button/[REWIND] button in the utility/shotbox control
block or utility control block, or the [Run] button/
[Rewind] button in the menu.
Notes
• If a macro timeline has ended but a macro is still
executing, you can press the [RUN] button/[REWIND]
button or the [Run] button/[Rewind] button to terminate
the macro timeline.
• In a macro timeline, since a take operation is not
possible, if a pause event with a pause time of "0" is set
in a registered macro, the actions after the pause are not
executed. The macro timeline is terminated.
