Macro Timeline
By recording macro recall and execute action on a
timeline, in the same way as for key frames in an effect,
you can automatically execute them in a sequence. This
timeline is called a “macro timeline,” and one macro
timeline can have up to 99 macros being executed
simultaneously in parallel.
There are 99 registers in the Macro region that can be
recorded on the macro timeline, numbered 1 to 99. These
registers are distinct from the registers where individual
macros are stored.
The Default Recall button shows the following.
Menu shortcut button to Menu Macro Edit menu
The Previous page button shows one of the following:
• When [Auto Insert] is on, “Menu Macro Auto Insert”
appears.
• When [Auto Insert] is off, “Menu Macro Insert After”
appears, but operates as [Insert After].
Menu Macro Register Editing
You can display the current state of a menu macro register
using the Menu Macro Register menu.
The items displayed are the same as under “Effect Status
Display” (page 468), with the exception that the region
name is not displayed.
In the Menu Macro menu, you can do the following editing
operations on menu macro registers.
•
Lock: Write-protect the contents of the menu macro
register.
•
Copy: Copy the contents of one menu macro register to
another menu macro register.
•
Delete: Delete the contents of a menu macro register.
•
Name: Attach a name to a menu macro register.
The operations for menu macro register editing are the
same as those for effect register editing
(see page 468)
except the region selection operation, which is not
necessary for menu macro register editing.
Notes
If you use a macro timeline to superimpose more than one
macro, the macros may not be executed according to the
timing information registered in the timeline.

Saving to a register
Set the recall and execute actions for the macros to be
registered in the timeline, using the Macro Timeline menu
(see page 522) . The setting data can be saved in a register
as key frame data. You can manipulate this data by
recalling the register in which it is saved, and using the key
frame control block.
Notes
An action set for a key frame is only executed when the
key frame effect is executed in the forward direction. It is
important to remember that the action is not executed in
the reverse direction when executing simultaneously with
switcher and DME key frame effects.
