Macro Operations in the Numeric Keypad Control Block and the Keyframe Control Block
Recall an empty register.
For details of the method of operation, see "Recalling a Macro Register
and Executing a Macro" (page 494).
This assigns the numeric keypad control block and keyframe control block
to macro editing, and the [MCRO] button in the numeric keypad control
block and the [EDIT ENBL] button in the keyframe control block light red.
The [STORE] button in the numeric keypad control block flashes red.
If required, press the [AUTO INS] button in the keyframe control block to
toggle the auto insert mode on or off.
Create the events (carry out the control panel operations to be registered as
events in the macro).
You can include pause events (see page 501).
For details of events that can be registered, see "Macros" in Chapter 1
(Volume 1).
• When auto insert mode (see page 495) is on, execution of a control panel
operation automatically registers an event in the macro.
• When auto insert mode is off, proceed to step 4.
Notes
• During macro editing, if you press any of the mode selection buttons in
the numeric keypad control block other than the [MCRO] button
([TRANSRATE] button, and so on), the executed operation is also
registered as an event. In this case, the [MCRO] button stays lit red.
• Even during macro editing, you can carry out keyframe operations using
the fader lever in the keyframe control block and the following buttons:
[EFF LOOP], [STOP NEXT KF], [NORM], [REV], [NORM / REV],
[FF], [REWIND], [RUN]
• During macro editing, if you press a button for which a macro
attachment is set, the outcome is as described in the next item.
