Bard- Can macros mimic melody?

[Zenren]

I have been playing a bard on TLP and I am really enjoying it, which leads me to want to start one on P99, my only question is whether or not I can get similar effects from macros that you get out of melodies on TLP. I would rather not experience carpal tunnel so if this is a class that actually requires constant ability clicking, it probably would not be my cup of tea for P99.
