Macros

5.

Confirm the macro register displayed is the one you wish to append. If
you made a mistake you can choose a different macro register. When
satisfied, touch the

Append Macro

button.

6.

The contents of the indicated macro will be appended to the originally
selected macro. Note that only the current contents of the macro is
appended to another macro. Deleting or changing the source macro
will not change the behavior of the macro that has received its contents
through an append.

Saving Macro Registers

1.

Go to the Macro Save-Load menu (touch

Macro

,

Save Load

).

2.

Navigate to the folder into which you wish to save the Macro files. You
can create a new folder if you wish.

3.

Select

All Macros

or enter a range of macro register numbers.

4.

Touch the

Save

button.

Note

Only the macro registers themselves are saved with this procedure, not any
macro attachments.

Loading Macro Registers

Macro registers are loaded similarly, by selecting the macro register file or
a folder of macros in the Macro Save-Load menu and touching the

Load

button.

Note

Only the macro registers themselves are loaded with this procedure, not any
macro attachments.

Using a Macro for Multiple Copies or Swaps

When copying or swapping several settings in turn (copying an M/E to
several other M/Es, for example) time may be required for one command
to complete before the next command can be serviced. If you create a macro
that performs multiple copy or swap operations, add a short delay after
each operation to ensure each completes successfully. For example, to copy
M/E 1 to M/E 2 and then copy M/E 1 to M/E 3 with a macro, include a
short delay after the M/E 1 to M/E 2 copy.

Macros and E-MEMs

Macros and E-MEMs can interact in two fundamentally different ways. A
Macro can be created that recalls one or more E-MEMs, or an E-MEM can
be programmed to execute one or more Macros. With care, operating both
control mechanisms together can be extremely powerful. However,
