Machine Mode
If the 960L is configured as multiple machines, which
can be seen from the bottom line of the System Status
Display, pressing the MACHINE key on the LARC2’s
control surface will show you which Program or
Register each machine is running (Figure 4-26).
The currently selected machine will be highlighted in
the list in the Main Operating Display and in the System
Status Display. To switch to a different machine, enter
its number on the Numeric Keypad (or scan up or down
to it with the Numeric Arrow keys and press the ENTER
key).
The fader and joystick assignments on the V-Page will
then change to those for the machine you’ve selected.
Machine Shortcuts:
1) If you know the number of the machine you want to
access, simply press and hold the Machine key on
the LARC2 and enter the number – you needn’t
wait for the Machine Mode screen.
2) Hold down the MUTE MACHINE button and, on the
numeric keypad, press the number of the machine
you wish to mute or unmute.
3) Hold down PROGRAM or REGISTER and, on the
numeric keypad, press the number of the machine
you want, and you will be in PROGRAM or
REGISTER mode for that machine.
4) Hold down STORE and press the number of the
