description: set master release time
remarks:

adb_master_release_time.xml

This selection of macros lets you change the master release time. These macros have Active Binding set so they will highlight and give visual feedback.

The code below is a snippet of the whole file which contains macros for various release times (the same times you will find for palette fade).

Code

releasetime.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<avolites.macros xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="Avolites.Menus.xsd">
 
  <macro id="adb.Macros.Releasetime4" name="adb Master Release Time 5s">
    <active binding="{propertyLink id='Playbacks.MasterReleaseTime' 
      converter='Playbacks.Editor.Times.TimeEqualityConverter' 
      converterParameter='5'}"/>
    <sequence>
      <step>ActionScript.SetProperty("Playbacks.MasterReleaseTime", time:5)</step>
    </sequence>
  </macro>
 
</avolites.macros>

Explanation

This explains the functional steps within the sequence. For all the other XML details please refer to Formats and syntax

  • Playbacks.MasterReleaseTime is the property that defines the master release time and needs to be set via ActionScript.SetProperty
  • active binding is used to highlight a macro when the corresponding property (propertyLink id) matches the converterParameter. A good starting point to understand active binding is either this wiki or this post in the Avo forum http://forum.avolites.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=5962
