Dsp Configuration - Lexicon 960L Owner's Manual

Operations in Detail
WORD CLOCK LOCK STATUS
A small padlock icon in the System Status Display shows
lock status. If the Word Clock becomes unlocked from the
signal, the icon's background flashes red (Fig. 4-4) and the
960L outputs are muted. This lock indicator is visible in the
System Status Display during all operating modes.

DSP Configuration

Configuring a DSP card divides the card into a number of
machines and selects the audio routing between these
machines. Each machine acts as an independent effects
processor and can be programmed separately. The 960L
supports up to two DSP cards. Each card is configured
independently.
The number of machines available varies per configura-
tion and is dependent on the sample rate. Only the con-
figurations available for the selected sample rate will be
available for selection.
Machines are numbered starting with the first DSP card.
For example, a 960L with a single DSP card, configured as
four stereo machines, will have machines numbered one
through four. A 960L with two DSP cards, each DSP card
configured as four stereo machines, will have a total of
eight machines – one through four on the first DSP card
and five through eight on the second.
You can preview the available configurations for the
selected sample rate using the Up/Down arrows or the
Increment/Decrement buttons. Previewing a configura-
tion allows you to temporarily view the DSP configuration,
read the configuration description, and view the I/O rout-
ing for the selected configuration without actually loading
it. When a configuration is being previewed, the configu-
ration name will flash between a grey and a white back-
ground. The currently loaded configuration, if there is one
currently loaded, will have a black background.
