4.13 Fluent Macros
Fluent Macros is a powerful memory system that takes SnapShot Memories to
another level. It enables a sequence of panel button pushes to be recorded and then
played at the push of a button. At the heart of the Macros is a file-based architecture
that not only remembers button pushes and commands, but more importantly files
from the Clip and Graphic stores.
Macros consists of an advanced Editor which is used to record, edit and modify an
effect and a Player used to trigger pre-made effects.
