Control Mode: Clocks, Configuration, and System Screens

The LARC2’s CONTROL key provides access to the		operate in this mode.	The faders and joystick remain
960L’s wordclock,	input/output configuration, and	assigned to whatever	audio parameters are on the
system information.	Note that only three soft buttons	V-Page.

Wordclock

From the Control Mode screen, press the WORDCLK soft button, then the number of the source you want:

1	Internal	Crystal-controlled. Use only with
		analog inputs, or if your digital inputs
		are from sources that are locked to
		the 960L.
2	BNC	For locking to your studio’s
		master clock. Used with
		analog or digital input.
3	AES	Clocked from AES input 1-2. Used
		with analog or digital input. Note that
		if you are using AES as both the
		clock and audio source, and
		disconnect AES input 1-2 (the clock
		source) while other inputs remain
		active, you will hear artifacts on the
		non-clock channels, while the system
		detects the disconnect.

Entering the clock source number will select that source. You can also select a source with the Up/Down Navigation Arrows or the Increment/Decrement (+/-) keys.

Note: Use of the internal wordclock with digital inputs can introduce audible artifacts due to sample slip, even if the nominal sample rates are the same. When the 960L detects slipped samples in the AES input stream, the audio outputs are muted. To avoid this, do one of the following:

•Slave both the digital source and the 960L (BNC or AES) to a common wordclock.

•Allow the 960L to slave (BNC or AES) to the digital source's wordclock.

•Slave the digital source to the 960L, using the 960L AES or BNC output.
