Storing and Labeling Your Edits
When you’ve edited a Program or Register until it just meets your needs, you can store it as a Register and label it for future use.
Storing
•Press the STORE key on the LARC2 Control Surface.
•If you've edited a Program, the 960L will select the next empty Bank (or the Register Bank you last stored to) and Register.
•If you’ve edited a Register, the 960L will offer to overwrite the original version. To accept, press the STORE key again.
•To change the storage location, press the BANK key and enter the number of the desired Register Bank, or scroll to it with the Navigation Arrows. Then press REGISTER and select the desired Register in that Bank. Pressing STORE again will store your edits to that location. The Register you select can be an empty one, or you can choose to overwrite an existing Register.
