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.

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.
