Macros
> Macros are one-click moves that touch multiple bands at once — useful when you want a common move (like "cut the low end and the low-mid mud") without spending five clicks on it.

Bass Cleanup
The included macro:
- A high-pass band engaged at 30 Hz with a 24 dB/oct slope to remove inaudible rumble.
- A LowShelf or Peak cut around 250–300 Hz to remove low-mid mud.
- Any other bands you may have configured are left untouched.
Click the Macros pill in the header → Bass Cleanup. One click, both bands placed and gain-staged. Undo (in the header History area) reverts in one step.
Why macros?
Macros write multiple parameters in a single gesture so the DAW sees one clean edit (one undo step, one automation snapshot), not five separate writes. They're built on the same gesture-wrapped write mechanism as the preset apply path.
Custom macros (planned)
User-definable macros are on the roadmap. For now, Bass Cleanup is the only built-in macro; the Macros pill will gain more options in future versions.
Tips
- A macro is just a multi-parameter shortcut — once it has run, every parameter it touched is a normal band parameter you can tweak, automate, or remove.
- If you find yourself running Bass Cleanup on every track you load, consider saving a preset with it pre-applied and load that as your default. See Presets.
