Navigating Typical Display Screens

The use and navigation of the display will be illustrated
with the screen shown in Figure 2-4, from Algorithm
Edit Mode. Bring up this screen by pressing the EDIT
and then ALGORITHM buttons.

Note that the

parameters currently assigned to the faders, and their
current settings, are shown on the Scribble Strip, just
above the Soft Button Labels.

The Action Display, which occupies the left half of the
display’s top line, will show the current operating mode
when you first enter that mode. When you touch a
fader, it will show the name of the attached parameter
and its current setting, and will continue to show that
information until you touch another fader. The action
indications are “sticky,”

in that they remain on the

display until another action indication is displayed.

In

Figure 2-4, the Action Display shows "Edit Mode"
because pressing the EDIT button was the most recent
action.

The Effect Display, which occupies the right half of the
top line, identifies the Program or Register loaded in the
active machine. Here, it shows that the 960L is using
"Large Hall +", which is Register 1 in Bank 1.

The Main Operating Display, which changes from mode
to mode, always occupies the same area shown, i.e. the
center and left of the screen. In this screen, used for
editing algorithms, it shows four algorithm pages, each
consisting of parameters and their settings. The currently
selected page has its page number highlighted, with a
red outline.

Parameters in the rows not highlighted are not assigned
to the faders and are set to the values shown.

Touching any fader will select the parameter controlled
by that fader. At that point, the selected parameter and
its setting will be highlighted on the Scribble Strip and
also on any page of settings visible in this display. It will
also be displayed in larger type on the Action Display.

You can also scroll to any desired parameter, whether
on the current page or not, with the Navigation Arrows.
If you scroll up or down to a different page, that page
and all its parameters will be "connected" to the faders.
Note that you can also select a page by pressing its
number on the Numeric Keypad. Once a new page is
selected, the faders automatically position to the
appropriate value (auto-nulled).

You can move as many faders at a time as you like. All
the connected parameters will be affected. If you touch
several faders, the last fader you release will then be
displayed as the "selected" parameter. In this mode
(Algorithm Edit) you can use the +/- Buttons to make
fine adjustments on the selected parameter.

The Paging Arrow along the right side of the Main
Operating Display shows that more items are available
than will fit the current listing.

The total number of

pages, 8 in Figure 2-4, is listed in the lower right corner
of the Main Operating Display. This arrow is greyed out
at the top, indicating that no further items are available
in that direction. The rows wrap. After you key down to
the last row, the next press of the Down Arrow will bring
up the first row, and vice versa if you use the Up Arrow.
