From **Macro Editor**, using your STRIKEPACK™-enabled controller, you can record almost any small to medium-sized combination of buttons you can think of. **You can save one Macro to each Paddle**. Making complex button sequences more accessible to all, you can record at your own pace, and Macro timing can be edited afterwards.
Prerequisites
Macro Editor is best set up while in-game, so you can record your actions in real-time.
**Checklist before entering Macro Editor**:
* [x] **Assigned Paddle:** At least one Paddle must be assigned to  **Recorded Macro**.
* [x] **Position:** Open space where you can easily record your Macro without being interrupted by interactive objects.
* [x] **Take Notes:** Game version? Platform? In-game settings?

Enter Macro Editor
HoldView + Assigned Paddle 300ms+
Entering **Macro Editor** produces a slow pulsing rumble. We're not recording yet. This is the setup section where you can change the Macro & Interrupt Type settings.
**To**** ****exit Macro Editor**** ****without recording**, you can**tap ****B**, but you'll need to remain in Macro Editor for the following steps...
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Macro Type
Select the Macro Type to suit your gameplay needs:
Forward: Tap orHoldLT
Backward: Tap orHoldLB
See the description of each Macro Type below:
**NOTE:** Playback starts over when the assigned Paddle is pressed.
| Macro Type |
| -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Hold Loop → Hold the Paddle to repeat playback. Release to immediately stop playback.
|
|
Hold Loop to End → Hold the Paddle to repeat playback. Release to stop playback after the loop ends.
|
|
Play Once → Tap the Paddle for a single playback.
|
|
Toggle Loop → Tap the Paddle to toggle on repeated playback.
|
Don't worry, you can change it later if you need to.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Interrupt Type
Select the Interrupt Type to suit your gameplay needs:
Forward: Tap orHoldRT
Backward: Tap orHoldRB
See the description of each Interrupt Type below:
| Interrupt Type |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Disabled → By default, you can only tapView (Activator) to end playback (Hold Loop: Release the Paddle Button).
|
|
Cancel → End playback early by pressing any controller button.
|
|
Reset → Start playback over by pressing any controller button.
|
|
Pause → Interrupt playback temporarily with your own controller inputs.
|
|
Pass Through → Use your own controller inputs alongside playback.
|
|
Mapped Stop → Controller buttons mapped to the assigned Paddle will end playback.
|
Don't worry, you can change it later if you need to.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Delete Pre-existing Macro
If you are looking to edit a pre-existing Macro, skip to [**Edit Pre-existing Macro**](#edit-pre-existing-macro). Otherwise, you can’t record a new Macro to this Paddle if one is currently saved to it. **Hold** **Y**** ****for 500ms** to delete the pre-existing Macro first:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Enter Recording / Editing
TapA
This will enter [**Recording**](#record-new-macro) (unless there is a pre-existing Macro on this Paddle, in which case it will enter [**Editing**](#edit-pre-existing-macro) instead).
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Record New Macro
1. Now that you've **pressed** **A**, recording is about to start. You'll feel quickened rumbles until your first button press. To record your Macro, press any buttons, triggers, bumpers, or stick directions you want, in the sequence & timing you want them recorded:
{% hint style="danger" icon="gamepad-modern" %}
To conserve space & make recording viable, certain inputs are simplified during capture:
* **Analog Sticks** → Recorded as 8-way digital directions (Up, Down, Left, Right + diagonals).
* **Analog Triggers** → Recorded as fully pressed (100% input).
{% endhint %}
2. Recording space is limited, and some actions consume more space than others. To indicate usage, the LEDs will gradually fill from off, to dim, to bright. This uses a tens (10's), ones (1's), and fifties (50's) system to indicate 1-100% of recording space used:
| Values Each LED is Worth: |
| -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Bright Fifty (50) = 50% Usage** |
| **Dim Ten (10) = 10% Usage** |
| **Bright Ten (10) = 20% Usage** |
| **Dim One (1) = 1% Usage** |
| **Bright One (1) = 2% Usage** |
3. (Optional) It may be difficult to get your button presses right the first time. During recording, you can restart over to retry as needed. To do so, **hold the assigned Paddle for 500ms** (heavy rumble):
4. After your last button press, you'll typically want to cut the recording short & exit Macro Editor. To do so, **quickly** **tap & release the assigned Paddle** (heavy rumble):
Should you choose *not* to stop recording after your last button press, any remaining time will be recorded as idle time to be used in Macro playback.
When recording space for this Macro is full—just as the last LED is about to go bright—recording will immediately end & exit Macro Editor (heavy rumble).
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Playback Controls
**Playback Controls** slightly differ based on the selected Macro Type:
| Playback Controls |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Hold Loop & Hold Loop to End** → **Hold** the **Paddle**. |
| **Play Once & Toggle Loop** → **Tap** the **Paddle**. |
| **End Playback** → **Tap** **View (Activator)**. |
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Edit Existing Macro
After recording your Macro, (or importing a .macrov3 in **Web M.O.D. Central**), you can re-enter Macro Editor to make changes. As before. This allows you to change the Macro & Interrupt type settings, but most importantly, you can edit Macro timings throughout to resolve poor timing or simply tighten your combo.
| Edit Existing Macro: |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
Enter Macro Editor:HoldView + Assigned Action Button for300ms+:
|
|
Enter Editing:TapA. This time because there is a existing Macro on this Paddle, instead of entering Recording, you'll enter Editing:
|
|
Select Entry:Tap orHoldRB /LB → Selects the Macro entry to Test Playback up to, and the entry to be time edited. The LEDs use the same tens (10's), ones (1's), and fifties (50's) system in Editing, as they do in Recording:
|
|
Add Future Playback:Tap orHoldR2 Adds (+)/L2 Removes (-) → Future Playback offset beyond the currently selected Macro entry. You'll feel a rumble each time offset is added or removed. Essentially, adding an offset sets Test Playback to continue past the Macro entry you’re currently editing, allowing you to check timing between the current entry and the entries that follow:
NOTE: Future Playback resets to 0 offset each time you select another Macro entry.
|
|
Test Playback:TapHome → Tests Playback from the start of the Macro up to the currently selected Macro entry + any Future Playback offset. Playback position is visualized via the LEDs:
|
|
Adjust:Down D-Pad Adds (+)/Up D-Pad Removes (-) → 10ms, letting you tune the timing of the currently selected Macro entry. Tap to carefully fine-tune (10ms); hold to adjust quickly:
NOTE: Remember to Test Playback with Home and take advantage of the Future Playback feature to see how your timing adjustments are taking effect from one entry to the next!

## Editing & Sharing Online
In [**M.O.D. CENTRAL WEB EDITION**](https://modcentral.collectivemindsstore.com/), you can access the **Macro Editor** user interface where you can further review your timings. You can also export & import .macrov3 files. These can be shared online with other STRIKEPACK™ Dominator & Eliminator users.
{% hint style="warning" icon="earth-americas" %}
When sharing exported .macrov3 files online, always share information about game version & platform and any in-game settings you used to make sure other users can achieve the same experience.
