In most configurations, the 960L gives you more than one
processing machine to work with, each of which can be
programmed individually. To select the machine you wish
to program, use the following steps:
• Hold down the MACHINE key on the LARC2's con-
trol surface.
• Using the Numeric Keypad, press the number of
the machine you want.
• Release the MACHINE key.
• The Machine Status Display shows which machine
is currently selected.
• Note that you can also select machines in
Machine mode (see Section 4 for details).

(3) Program Loading

This manual has already used the terms Programs, Banks
and Registers several times. The 960L comes pre-loaded
with more than 200 factory Programs (such as "Large Hall"
and "Bright Chamber").
effect that combines a processing algorithm with specific
parameters settings, plus brief explanatory notes and
comments. These Programs have been designed with
parameters assigned to the eight faders and the joystick
for easy, rapid control.
Related Programs are stored in descriptively named Banks
so they will be easy to find. A Bank can hold as many as
ten similar Programs. For example, the Halls Bank contains
reverberation Programs that simulate large spaces, while
the Plates Bank contains Programs that simulate studio
plate reverbs.

Programs can be edited by changing parameter settings,
by re-assigning parameters to the faders and joystick, or
by modifying the NAME or INFO. Editing does not change
the factory Programs, but you can store up to 1000 edited
effects as Registers, which are stored in separate Banks
from the factory Programs.
TO LOAD A PROGRAM (OR REGISTER):
• Press the PROGRAM (or REGISTER) key on the
LARC2.
• Press BANK. That will bring up a screen like Fig. 3-5.
• Enter the number of the Bank you want, using the
Numeric Keypad. If you don't know the number,
and the Bank you want is not on the display, scroll
up or down with the Navigation Arrows until you
find it.
• Use the Right Arrow to jump to the Program list (or
press PROGRAM).
• Enter the number of the Program you want, using
the Numeric Keypad (or scroll to the desired
Program with the Navigation Arrows or +/- but-
tons, then press the ENTER key).
