(info "(Emacs)Save Keyboard Macro”) says

— quote

   To avoid problems caused by overriding existing bindings, the key
sequences ‘C-x C-k 0’ through ‘C-x C-k 9’ and ‘C-x C-k A’ through ‘C-x
C-k Z’ are reserved for your own keyboard macro bindings.

— quote ends

Typically, prefering the hyper and, secondly, the super modifier.
