How to create Macro & select next line ?

Post by Pink LD »

I like the "Release All Buttons" feature. I have made and used to effectively do this as I leave one Live page for another. But now the feature is in a dropdown menu. I will certainly be incorporating this feature.

Sequential Cue List:
I see how to insert scenes/Macros but how do I input existing Macros?
And my next question is that I see the "Go"/space button for cueing forward, but how do you cue back? Sometimes you have to go back in a cue list. And sometimes you have to skip looks and manually pick the look you want. Any idea about that?

Thank you for this first report about "Sequential List".
How do I input existing Macros?
You can not import existing Macros from the tab "Buttons".
You have to create your own Macros in tab "Sequential List".
When you select "Add Macro", you add an empty Macro.
When you select "Add Steps/Generator/Pixels scene" over a Macro, the scene is added into the Macro.
Sometimes you have to go back in a cue list. And sometimes you have to skip looks and manually pick the look you want. Any idea about that?
You can select the next line with a mouse click over it ; then the line becomes yellow.
- yellow line means: this will be the next played line
- green line means: the line is current playing

BTW: V8.0.89 is ready (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4332)

So I have to input the scenes I would want for a Macro? Ah, I was trying to get all the scenes I had active in Live to save as a Sequential List Macro. So the Sequential list does not consider Live when programming?

Yes, the tab "Sequential List" has nothing to do with the tabs "Buttons".

Ok, thanks. I will have to consider Sequential Cues a future development tool.

I do like it, it is just I am heavily devoted to sequential Macros on sequential pages, and some of my Live Macros have 20, 30, or more buttons being called that reproducing that into a Sequential Cue list would be ectraordinarily tedious.
