HAT ARE THE LIMITATIONS

?

In some cases, the macro command cannot be defined or applied as it has been
defined.

A macro command cannot be applied if it is linked to a GPI OUT of TTL type,

which has then been changed to a GPI IN.

In this case, the macro command is displayed on a red background in the
macro command settings.

A macro command cannot be applied if it is defined on an audio track that

does not exist in the current timeline.

In this case, the message box ‘track does not exist for this macro’ appears in

the global status bar when you try to apply the macro command.
