About Multi Button Macros
A macro can be described as a combination of
actions or functions used in performing a partic-
ular task. In the case of music creation, and ex-
ample of one of the most common tasks in-
volves recording a track, rewinding the song,
and playing back what you’ve recorded.
The Driver Control Panel lets you assign the
Multi button to a corresponding key command
for each Step of the task, such that each Step is
performed as the button is repeatedly pressed.
For example, the first time the Multi button is
pressed can start the recording (Step 1). The sec-
ond press can stop the recording, while the third
and fourth time you press the button can return
the playhead to the beginning of the song, and
start playback respectively. This would be con-
sidered a macro of four Steps, using four succes-
sive presses of the Multi button. Pressing the
Multi button again takes you back to Step 1, and
lets you repeat the sequence again.
The following table shows examples of key com-
mands from three of the various qualified re-
cording applications, however you should refer
