Triggers
These buttons are pressed using the index finger and allow variable levels of
action. The function depends on the software being used. Pull the trigger in
completely for full action, or depress slightly for reduced button activity. The
variable triggers add great depth to many games.
Start Button
This button is generally used to make selections in the menus and for pausing the
game. For more details, see the software instruction manual
MACROS
The Cubicon features a powerful macro function. When playing certain games,
especially fighting games, a combination of directional pad and action button
presses execute special moves for more intricate attacks. The Macro function
allows that series of button presses to be easily programmed and executed
from a single button press. Being able to program these commands to a single
button will allow you to perform the special moves on demand and without failure.
Recording Macros
Macro’s can be recorded to the Macro Execution Button for playback (see
controller layout section). One macro will allow up to fifteen button presses per
macro. Pressing multiple buttons simultaneously counts as a single command.
In other words, pressing X, A, and B at the same time is one command, not
three. Your commands must be able to be executed within 1.5 seconds to take
advantage of the macro function. While recording a macro all action buttons
retain their original game function.
Delay
: In some combo’s, it can be necessary to have a delay between commands.
To record a delay, press the START button. If a longer delay is necessary, press
the START button as many times as needed. You may need to experiment with
your particular game.

Hold
: In some cases, it can be necessary to hold down a button or direction for
an extended period of time. To do this, simply hit the button or direction twice.
If a longer hold is necessary, press the button (or direction) multiple times. You
may need to experiment with your particular game.
Double Tap
: A “double tap” is hitting a certain action button or direction twice.
To record a double tap, press the button (or direction), then START, then the
same button (or direction).
Programming Macros
1. Press the Macro Program Button (Macro Button illuminates red).
2. Adjust the macro speed as necessary. (see below)
3. Press the Macro Execution Button to which the macro is to be assigned (Macro
Program Button blinks).
4. Press the commands desired, in order and with delays in the appropriate places.
5. To finish recording the macro, press the Macro Program Button again (if you use
all fifteen commands - the Macro Program Button will also stop flashing).
Macro Speed
Some games want to read these macros at a certain speed. We have optimized the
macro feature to play back the moves to work with all compatible games.
There are two macro speeds:
1. Fast (default)
2. Slow
You control the speed by simply pressing the Macro Program Button, then DOWN
on the D-Pad (Macro Program Button will flash slowly - indicating slow mode). To
increase the macro playback speed, press the Macro Program Button, then UP on
the D-Pad (Macro Program Button will flash quickly - indicating fast mode). Most
games will work with the fast (default) speed. If you find you need the slow speed,
you must adjust the macro playback speed prior to programming the macro.
