Chapter 10: Macros
A Macro is a time saving feature that allows you to save any particular parameter edit or group of edits to be
reused later.
For example, if you have spent a lot of time coming up with the perfect Envelope and Filter settings, you
don’t want to have to write them all down and recreate them by hand just to use them in another
instrument. Instead, you can save the edits as a macro and instantly apply those hard won settings to
another instrument. For settings that you use frequently, you can even assign a “hot-key” to any macro.
You can also copy your collection of macros to another GigaStudio system.
A Macro can consist of just a single articulation parameter, such as Filter Cuto, or it can contain multiple
parameters or even an entire articulation.
Saving Macros
To save a new Macro, select the split that has the settings you want to save. is will be the split whose
parameter values are currently visible in the Parameter Window.
Once you have selected the region, there are two ways to save the settings as a Macro.
1. Right-click on the selected velocity split and choose Save
articulation as macro from the context menu.
2. Alternatively, click on the Save Macro button at the
bottom of the screen.
