8.3.1 Macro Control OverviewEach Macro Control can be assigned to one destination with the full range of the selected pa-rameter. On the other hand, the same parameter can be the destination of more than one Mac-ro Control.To know which parameters you can assign to a Macro Control, consider this single rule:A Macro Control of a channel can control any parameter located in the properties or Plug-ins of thatchannel or of any underlying channel.In other words:▪ For Sounds: You can assign the Macro Controls of a Sound to any parameters in its proper-ties or Plug-ins.▪ For Groups: You can assign the Macro Controls of a Group to any parameters in its proper-ties or Plug-ins as well as any parameters in any Sound inside the Group.▪ For the Master: You can assign the Macro Controls to any parameters found in the proper-ties or Plug-ins of any channel in your Project.Obviously, the Macro properties (even of a different channel) are not available as targetsfor any Macro Control.Linking the same parameter to more than one Macro Control can be useful in the follow-ing example: If a parameter of a Sound is particularly important, you can link it to thesame knob in the Macro Controls of that Sound, of its parent Group, and of the Master.By doing this, you ensure that the parameter is always available on the same knob whenyou switch between the Master, Group, and Sound level (but not if you switch to anotherSound or Group, of course).8.3.2 Assigning Macro ControlsAssigning Macro Controls is done in the Pages pane of the Assignment area when the Macroproperties are selected. The procedure is similar to the procedure used when assigning param-eters of VST/AU plug-ins to Parameter pages in MASCHINE (see section ↑6.3.3, Setting UpYour Own Parameter Pages).Audio Routing, Remote Control, and Macro ControlsCreating Custom Sets of Parameters with the Macro ControlsMASCHINE - Manual - 450
