Notes
• During macro editing, if you press any of the mode
selection buttons in the Flexi Pad other than the
[MCRO] button ([WIPE] button, [DME WIPE]
button, and so on), the executed operation is also
registered as an event. In this case, the [MCRO]
button stays lit red.
• Even during macro editing, you can carry out
keyframe operations using the following buttons:
[EFF LOOP], [STOP NEXT], [NORM], [REV],
[NORM/REV], [REWIND], [RUN]
• During macro editing, if you press a button for
which a macro attachment is set, the outcome is as
described in “To merge a macro for which a macro
attachment is set” ( 1 p. 285).
5 When auto insert mode is off, press the [INS] button to
register the event.
6 Repeat steps 4 and 5 to register the required events in
the macro.
This registers the events in the macro, in the order the
operations were carried out on the control panel.
7 Press the [STOR] button.
8 Enter the register number to save with the numeric
keypad buttons.
There is no need to enter a number if saving into the
register recalled in step 1.
9 Press the [ENTR] button.
This saves the created macro in the register, and
editing ends. The [MCRO] button lights amber.
To merge a macro for which a macro attachment
is set
While creating/editing a macro, if you press a button for
which a macro attachment is set, the macro in the register
assigned to the button is recalled, and the following occurs.
• When auto insert mode is on, it is merged with the macro
being edited. However, the macro assigned to the button
is not executed.
• When auto insert mode is off, it is stored in the paste
buffer. Pressing the [PSTE] button merges it with the
macro being edited.
Specifying an edit point
1 Recall the register for the macro (1 to 250) you want to
edit ( 1 p. 283).
2 Press the [EDIT ENBL] button, turning it on.
This switches the memory recall section to macro
editing mode.
3 Using any of the following methods, specify the edit
point.
• To move the edit point to the event immediately
following the current macro event, press the [>>
NEXT] button.
• To move the edit point to the event immediately
preceding the current macro event, press the [<< PREV] button.
• To move to an edit point by specifying an event
number (the number showing the position of the
event in the macro execution sequence), press the
[GOTO EVNT] button, then enter the event number
and confirm with the [ENTR] button.
Inserting an event
