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.
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.
