a) In the case of an event that inserts or deletes a key, the key state at the time of event registration

(inserted or not inserted) is also saved in the macro. When the macro is executed, the event is
only replayed if the key state matches the saved state. (Example: For a macro with an event that
deletes a key, when the macro is executed, if the key is inserted it is deleted, but otherwise
nothing occurs as concerns keying.)

b) Function valid only when [PLAY], [STOP], and [CUEUP] have been set in the Setup menu.
c) When a search dial module is connected, this operates as the reference module. When not

connected, this operates on the module selected in the Panel >Config menu.

For details of reference module selection, see “Overall Control Panel Settings (Config Menu)”
in Chapter 19 (Volume 3)

Macro Creation and Editing

You can create or edit a macro by recalling a macro register.
To create a new macro, recall an empty macro register, and create the desired
sequence of events (by executing the sequence of operations on the control
panel that you want to save as events in the macro).
To add an event to an existing macro, recall the register holding the macro, and
create the event you want to add.
