Hello everyone, I just wanted to make a quick guide for setting up macros using Unleash RGB. If you are new to our gaming peripherals or software, this will be a great place to start. If you haven’t done so already, you can download the Unleash RGB software here: https://www.evga.com/unleash/.

Thanks.    

As a follow up to my previous post, I have noticed that when I open the Macro tab the Macro List box (on bottom left) shows a '-' under Macro List and 44 under Bind.
I experimented by reassigning 4 macros and viewing the Macro List I find the four macros listed under Macro List with a 2 under Bind. The top line still displays a '-' but the bind total has decreased to 36.
What exactly the Bind data refers to I don't know.
If I change the profile while on the Macro Editor tab then return to the profile I was adding macros to, the Macro List reverts to the single '-' and 44 and the assigned macros on the Key Assignment tab have disappeared.
Changing profiles on any other tab does not affect the macro assignments.
Is this a problem with the software? In my opinion a warning should be stated somewhere.
How does the Remap function work? I cannot seem to reallocate a key value on a single key.
Allocating macros to keys would be made easier if the macro names listed in the Primary/Secondary dialog boxes were listed alphanumerically.
When exporting macro files it would be nice if the software remembered where the macros are stored and not keep returning to the Desktop folder.
One final comment, it would be a great help if there was a decent user manual.
Problems aside I do like the feel and response of the keyboard.

I am using the X15 mouse. Made a simple macro to dodge and roll. 
The time i press the button to the time if takes affect in game is quite awhile. How do i lower this delay?

How can I append  to or insert into an existing macro? I have a macro and want to add just a few keystrokes to it, but I can't find how to do this without starting over, and the macro is long enough I don't want to start from scratch recording it.

I just got my Z20 keyboard today. Hooray.
I downloaded the software and, for the most part, it was pretty staright forward.
 
But for macros however....
 
Here's a thing I found out.
If you create a macro, assign it to a key, then hit apply, it will work as you originally created it. If you go back to change the timings and whatnot, you *HAVE* to remove the binding, hit apply, re-assign the macro and hit apply again.
It's a bit cumbersome but it works.
My shortcut was a simple CTRL+= to change Windows Explorer to folder list.

Okay, here's a very basic script. Remember, to use this you must delete both of the recorded macros from Unleased before importing the new combined macro. This is because each action is identified with a pair of unique GUIDs, and if you don't delete the originals Unleashed will get confused by the duplicate actions. Maybe someone else can enhance this to also generate new guids for each action:
 

param (
[string]$original,
 [string]$append,
 [string]$output
 )
 
if ($original.Length -le 0) {
    write-host 'Need original file name'
    return
 }
 if ($append.Length -le 0) {
    write-host 'Need file to append'
    return
}
if($output.Length -le 0) {
    write-host 'Need file to output'
    return
}
 
$o = get-content $original | ConvertFrom-Json
$a = get-content $append | ConvertFrom-Json
$newActions = $a.MacroActions
 
$newActions | % { 
    $o.MacroActions += $_
}
" " | out-file -Encoding ASCII -noNewline $output # Force ps to omit the BOM
ConvertTo-Json $o -Compress | out-file $output -Encoding utf8 -Append

 
Save this to a *.ps1 file, enable scripts in powershell (ie: set-executionpolicy remotesigned) then use it like this:
 

scriptfile.ps1 -original MyMainMacro.macro -append MyNewMacro.macro -output final.macro

 
 

Very Nice guide. thanks

In my experience the macro settings are a joke on these keyboards.  
 
The issues I have is when I go set up macros record the key combo, first action is always above 6000 ms ****! I'm not holding my finger on the keyboard.  Then if I try to use the macro as recorded it doesn't work.  It ends up performing single key function rather than multi key. 
 
Take example, I use LefShift + T
Action 1 LeftShift Keydown: 3082ms
Action 2 T KeyDown: 305ms
Action 3 T KeyUp: 123ms
Action 4 Leftshift KeyUp: 31ms
 
Let say I manually adjust the times.  To 10ms and try my macro it doesn't work.  I end up having to do is set time 100ms, 101ms, 102ms, 103ms in order for it to work when it wants to.  I have tried adjusting the times and yes each time I adjust the time, I save, un-bind, and re-bind.
Whatever you do don't accidentally change profiles during gaming.  When you go back to the original your macro will not work unless you restart your game. YMMV

Is the MS the duration of the press or duration before the button is pressed/released?

I've had this the K12 for a very long time now. I've never used a macro so I decided to tried it. Well, I have back in the day using AutoHotKey. Anyways....I follow the directions TO THE "T". I'm trying to assign "cntrl-keyboard & the asterisk keys" to the E1. I just can't get it to work. Can anyone help? v1.0.21

Hello. I'm trying to set up a macro for one single purpose: pressing and holding one of the keyboard buttons. But it looks like the software just can't do it!
Which I just haven't tried. Switching the switch and playback modes(options), increasing the key release delay to 360000ms, nothing helps!
After starting a macro from a button, any other press immediately resets playback of the "pressed" keyboard button. How to correctly implement this simplest action, which I did on my mouse from another company, in just a couple of seconds?
(EVGA Z20 Keyboard)
 
Two hours later...
I have never been able to get it to work with holding down the keyboard button. The funny thing is that SHIFT, CTRL, ALT macros can hold down the next time you press other keyboard buttons, and cannot hold down any other keyboard buttons.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi there. I am new. Thank you for a very informative and visual presentation. 

Dude...I've been a EVGA user for years and I got frustrated with the same "crap". Though I do respect EVGATech_AdamB and I followed his tutorial as he explained, I still don't know how to do the macros. I just gave up and went back to use: Hotkey Try that. I know what you're thinking, but until we get a answer? That's what we have to do.

I was just about to download the software
