# Macros

> The Macro trigger enables you to combine multiple VRA Commando's into one single action: a Macro. When activating this macro (via a commando, dashboard button or button in the list) VRA will execute the configured items sequentially or in instantly in parallel.

**Macro Items**

You can configure two items as part of the Macro: trigger a commando or wait for \{x} milliseconds. Selecting commando's is the same as you know from other modules in VRA.

The wait time enables you to create a sequence with time in between triggers (for example for a fallback scenario; looping over two camera's.

**Conditions**

The macro's can get really advanced by selecting conditions. These will enable or disable a item within the macro, so you can automate the full dynamic item list in the macro configuration.

**Block after**

Sometimes it is important to only continue triggering a section in the macro when a condition applies: “Only when music is playing, trigger the Nowplaying Clip Player, if not stop.”

With Block After execution you can prevent the macro from continuation if a condition is not applicable.

### Studio switching example

Below is one of the many scenario's you can realise with Macro's. When the following Macro is triggered, two actions are instantly executed:

* Activate the selected studio (onair)
* Set Overlay 1 to a specific Input in vMix
