Auto pause insert mode
In addition to the auto insert mode function, auto pause
i
nsert mode automatically inserts a pause event between
events.
The time between an event being inserted and the next
e
vent being inserted is set as the pause time.
When macros are merged, pause events are not
a
utomatically inserted.

Pausing and resuming a macro
Pause event
You can insert a pause event to pause macro execution.
T
his is useful for adjusting the event execution timing.
You can set a pause time in the range of 0 to 999 frames.
W
hen the set pause time elapses, macro execution
automatically resumes.
When the pause time is set to “0”, macro execution does
no
t automatically resume. You can resume with arbitrary
timing using the take operation.
When registering a rewind or move to start point
op
eration as an event for an external device, you must
take into account the time taken to complete execution.
Adjust the timing by inserting a pause event.
Take operation
This operation is used to resume execution of a paused
macro.
A take operation is done using the following buttons.
• [TAKE] button in macro operation mode in the Flexi
Pa
d control block
• [TAKE] button assigned to the cross-point pad in the
cr
oss-point control block
• [MCRO TAKE] button assigned to the transition
co
ntrol block (simple type)
• Button assigned with the “Macro Take” utility

Macro execution mode
The following two types of execution mode can be set.
For details about setting the execution mode, see “Setting
the macro execution mode” (page 421).
Normal execution mode
When execution of an event ends, the next event is
aut
omatically executed.
Step execution mode
When execution of an event ends, execution is paused.
T
he next event is executed by a take operation.
Executing multiple macros
simultaneously (multi mode)
Normally, a single macro can be executed at a time, but
enabling multi mode allows multiple macros to be
executed.
For details about setting multi mode, see “To enable
simultaneous execution of multiple macros” (page 421).
Simultaneous execution of multiple macros is supported
onl
y when macro registers are recalled using the
following buttons.
• Cross-point buttons of the cross-point control block
confi
gured with a macro attachment
• Cross-point buttons of the cross-point control block
assi
gned with macro register recall function
• Memory recall buttons in the utility/shotbox control

• Memory recall buttons in the utility control block

• In multi mode, macros are executed in normal
exec
ution mode, regardless of the execution mode
setting.
• Up to 16 macros can be executed simultaneously.
• When multi mode is enabled, macro editing is
supp
orted only when a register is recalled using the
following operations.
– Buttons in the Flexi Pad control block
– Buttons in the numeric keypad control block
– Buttons in cross-point pad in the cross-point control

• If operations due to events executing simultaneously
conf
lict with each other, the events may not be
reproduced with the registered settings or sequence.
• To resume all paused macros within the macros
exec
uted simultaneously, press the button assigned
with the “Macro All Take” utility command.
• To stop all macros executed simultaneously, press the
but
ton assigned with the “Macro All Cancel” utility
command.
Triggering macro execution using GPI
input
You can recall a macro register and perform a take
operation using a GPI input.
