The LARC2 Remote

Navigating Typical Display Screens, Continued

Shortcut: Any numbered item available in the current mode, visible or not, can be brought up by entering its number with the Numeric Keypad on the LARC2 control surface.

Soft-Button Labels identify the currently available soft buttons. The currently active button is highlighted with a red outline. Buttons with grey backgrounds will cause a context change; those with yellow backgrounds cause an immediate action. Buttons with blank legends do nothing.

The System Status Display is present in all screens. In Figure 2-4, it shows that the current sample rate is 48kHz, that the wordclock source is internally generated, and that the 960L is locked to that clock source. On the line below, we see that the 960L is configured as two machines, and that Machine 1 is currently selected for editing. If a machine is muted, the machine number is overlaid with a red flashing "M". If all available machines are muted, the machine bar is overlaid with a red flashing "ALL MUTED" message. If the word clock was external (via either the AES input 1-2 or the BNC Wordclock input), the padlock symbol would show the state of wordclock lock. If lock was lost, the padlock box would flash red and the 960L outputs would automatically mute.

The Joystick Status Display is also present in all screens. In Figure 2-4, it gives the joystick position and the resulting Shape and Spread values. The parameters currently assigned to the joystick and their settings are listed in two boxes to the left of the Joystick Map. The small colored dot at the center of the map shows those parameter settings graphically. The dot is red if the joystick is not active and green if it is. The cursor shows the Joystick’s current position. Pressing the JOYSTICK Button on the LARC2 control surface sets the parameters to the joystick’s current position and activates the joystick.

The V-Page legend in the Joystick Status Display indicates that the joystick is set to a V-page, or virtual page, a Program- or Register-specific collection of parameters and settings assigned to the faders and joystick. (See Chapter 3, Basic Operation and Chapter 4, Operations in Detail.)

Fader labels are in the Scribble Strip just above the Soft Button Labels. These display the parameters currently assigned to each fader, and their settings. When a fader is touched, the associated parameter is highlighted in yellow.

About the Faders and Joystick

The faders and joystick always control some aspect of the audio, no matter what mode the 960L is in. It is the active control mode that determines which audio parameters are controlled. This table shows the mapping.
