Editing with the Joystick

Check the Joystick Status Display to see what parameters are currently assigned to the joystick and what their current settings are.

Note whether the JOYSTICK Key on the LARC2 control surface is illuminated or not.

If the key is illuminated, the joystick is locked to the current parameter, and moving it will change the current settings. The setting dot is green and the joystick cursor will be superimposed on the Joystick Map section of the display, as shown on the right in Figure 4-14.

•Move the joystick. This immediately changes the parameter settings.

•The new settings can be read from the left half of the Joystick Status Display.

If the key is not illuminated, the joystick is not locked, and moving it will not affect parameter settings. The red setting dot and joystick cursor will normally be separated on the Joystick Map (as shown on the left in figure 4-14).

•Maneuver the joystick so its cursor lies near the red setting dot.

•Press the JOYSTICK Key on the LARC2 control surface, to capture the parameter. The setting dot will turn green and the JOYSTICK key will light. If the joystick cursor is not near the current values, the values will jump to the joystick position.

Figure 4 -14 — Joystick Status Screen with joystick not locked (left) and locked (right).

Note: As it is possible for the joystick cursor to overlay the setting dot when the joystick is not locked, check that the JOYSTICK Key is illuminated or that the setting dot is green to confirm that the joystick is locked.

Quick Comparisons via the Lexicon Button

The Lexicon button provides a quick way to switch between the EDITs you have made on an Program or Register and the effect as originally loaded. When the Lexicon button is pressed, the original Program or Register will load and a red banner will be displayed at the bottom of the screen, saying "LISTENING TO ORIGINAL PRESET" (Figure 4-15). When the button is released, your last EDIT state will be reloaded and the red banner will disappear.
