Macro Timeline; Creating And Editing A Macro Timeline - Sony DVS-9000 User Manual

Macro Timeline

Timeline operations are carried out on a macro timeline in the same way as for
normal effects.
For details of timeline operations, see "Chapter 13 Keyframe Effects" (page
175).
Note
When using a macro timeline, note the following.
• To use a macro timeline, the Macro region must be assigned to a region
selection button in the numeric keypad control block. For details of region
assignment operations, see "Assigning a region to a region selection button
in the numeric keypad control block" (page 307).
• On a macro timeline, only macro recall and execution actions are stored. The
data for a macro to be recalled on the macro timeline is not held on the
timeline. It is necessary to create the macro data first.
• A macro timeline can be saved and recalled on the master timeline or a
shotbox register, but cannot be saved as a snapshot.
