Editing With The Joystick; Quick Comparisons Via The Lexicon Button - Lexicon 960L Owner's Manual

Operations in Detail

Editing with the Joystick

Check the Joystick Status Display to see what parameters
are currently assigned to the joystick and what their cur-
rent settings are.
Note whether the JOYSTICK key on the LARC2 control sur-
face is illuminated or not. If the key is illuminated, the joy-
stick 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
Fig. 4-31.
• 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 Fig. 4-31.
• Maneuver the joystick so its cursor lies near the red
setting dot.
• Press the JOYSTICK key on the LARC2 control sur-
face, 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 set -
ting 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 to a 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" (Fig. 4-
32). When the button is released, your last edit state will be
reloaded and the red banner will disappear.
