Linking macros<br />

Any macro may end with a link to another macro. When macros are linked,<br />

the first macro runs, then the second macro follows automatically. Press<br />

the appropriate macro key at the end of your sequence to create the link.<br />

Pressing the macro key automatically ends and stores the macro.<br />

For example, to create a macro that sets all active channels to 50 percent,<br />

fades them out, then runs another macro, follow these steps:<br />

Keystrokes:<br />

Action:<br />

1. Press [Setup] [8] [Enter]. Selects Macro editing mode<br />

2. Press [1] [Enter]. Selects macro 1 to create<br />

Prompt reads:<br />

Select operation(s) for this macro –<br />

press MACRO ENTER when done<br />

(Wheels, trackpad and sliders are<br />

not valid entries in macros)<br />

3. Press [Enter] [At] [5][0]. Sets all active channels to 50 percent<br />

Macro line reads:<br />

ENTER AT 5 0<br />

4. Press [Macro Wait] [1][0]<br />

[Enter].<br />

Macro pauses for ten seconds<br />

Macro line reads:<br />

ENTER AT 5 0 Mwait-10<br />

5. Press [At] [0] [Enter]. Fades all active channels out<br />

Macro line reads:<br />

ENTER AT 5 0 Mwait-10<br />

ENTER AT 0 ENTER<br />

6. Press [M3]. Stores macro. Links macro to macro 3<br />

Macro line reads:<br />

ENTER AT 5 0 Mwait-10<br />

ENTER AT 0 ENTER M3<br />

Note: You may also link a macro to a cue so the macro will run at the same<br />

time the cue does. See Linking a macro to a cue, page 97, for more details.<br />
