Operations in Detail

Editing

The 960L’s Programs and Registers can be edited in several ways:

•Changing the settings of the parameters with the faders and joystick

•Adjusting input and output panning

•Adjusting input and output levels

•Assigning new parameters to any fader or to either joystick axis

Edits stay in effect until a new Program or Register is loaded, or can be saved as Registers. You cannot overwrite factory Programs, but you can save edited Programs as Registers. Registers, like Programs, reside on disk and can be recalled anytime. They can also be saved on floppy disk, for archiving or for copying to a second 960L.

Editing Algorithms

A Program or Register becomes edited any time you alter the current parameter settings with the faders or joystick. To save these—or any other—edits, just press the Store key, check to be sure the storage location is correct, then press Store again.

Editing With the Faders

1)Use the Numeric Keypad or Navigation Arrows to select the Edit page that contains the parameter you want to change.

2)Check the Scribble Strip to find the parameter to edit.

3)Touch the corresponding fader. That parameter will be highlighted on the Scribble Strip and its name and

setting will appear in large characters on the Action Display at the upper left of the screen.

4) Adjust the fader to the desired setting.

Fine Adjust

For some parameters, the range of possible values is so large that the smallest possible fader movements change the value too much.

To make fine adjustments, set the faders to the approximate values you want, then press the FINE ADJ Button. When this button is pressed, the faders all move to the center of their travel, but their parameter settings do not change. The faders then operate in a vernier mode, with a limited adjustment range and far fewer steps per inch of travel, so that full-range movement of the fader will alter the parameter value only a little from its coarse value. This makes it easy to tweak the setting to the exact value you want.

On entering fine adjust mode, the Action Display says "Fine Adjust Enabled". The centering of all faders is an additional indication.

Pressing FINE ADJ a second time will return the system to normal operation. The faders will return to their appropriate full-range positions.

When in the Edit Algorithm Mode, to make fine adjustments of a single parameter, simply touch the appropriate fader to select the parameter, then use the Increment/Decrement (+/–) buttons to get the setting you want. Each press of these buttons will change the parameter by its smallest possible increment.
