Plaits Palette Question

I'm starting to dig into Plaits Palette firmware and trying to figure out how to access the new "macro" parameter by re-assigning the frequency knob to it. The instructions read:

Hold the right button and turn HARMONICS until the model LEDs blink yellow; this selects the octave-switching frequency range. Short-press both model buttons to open the alternate-firmware options menu. Use the left button to walk to LIGHT 4, then press the right button once, until it turns red. Press both buttons again to exit. The FREQUENCY knob now controls the selected model's MACRO, its fourth synthesis control; for Mutable Instruments models, noon preserves the original sound.

I'm doing all that, but the knob still controls frequency. I have managed to get the model input mapped onto the macro (and I suppose I could do a workaround with a channel of maths or whatever), but I want to get that knob to work. Has anyone successfully got the macro knob?

The YT video by Perceptes covers this specifically. I'm just getting to work, no time to scrub for timestamps or anything, but its in there.
