edit effect macros

Hi, I’m working on making some effects for an upcoming production and was wondering about effect editing macros. I can see that the macro content field has an “Effect_Edit” selection. I am curious if you can make a macro that would allow you to edit effects on the fly.

For example, I’m specifically working on a chase effect that is two colors that run across a strip of blizzard hot sticks. I’m hoping there is a way to make macros that allow me to choose what colors the chase is using. My theory goes something like this. “Effect_Edit 1 action 1 level CP1” and then that would change the first color to whatever I record in color pallet one. I tried this and it didn’t work.

I have to think this is possible because of the “Effect_Edit” command. My desire is to eventually have a magic sheet set up with all of my effects and effect editing macros similar to what can be done with MA 2 layout views. If anyone knows how this works any advice is appreciated since I can find nothing online. Thanks!
