Lexicon 960L - Manual (Page 35)

Operations in Detail Lexicon, Inc.
Use the Right Navigation Arrow to get to the Rate
display.
For internal wordclock, you must select the
exact rate, as shown in Fig. 4-3. For external wordclock
via the BNC or AES inputs, you need only select
44.1/48 kHz or 88.2/96 kHz range. The 960L will then
lock onto your source.
Wordclock Lock Status: A small padlock icon in the
System Status Display shows lock status.
If the
wordclock becomes unlocked from the signal, the icon’s
background flashes red (Figure 4-4) and the 960L
outputs are muted. This lock indicator is visible in the
System Status Display during all operating modes.

Input, Output, and Machine Configuration
The 960L is an 8-input/8-output device. Input sources
can be either analog or AES digital, and all inputs must
be the same input type.
Each output is sent to both
analog and AES digital outputs. For any configuration,
the mapping of physical channels to algorithm channels
is fixed. The CONFIG soft button brings up the screens
for selecting the 960L’s I/O and machine configuration.
The number of machines available varies with the
sample rate.
At 44.1/48 kHz, the 960L can be
configured as up to four machines. At 88.2/96 kHz, up
to two machines can be configured. Where multiple
machines are available, each is programmed
separately.
In stereo configurations (Figs. 4-5 and 4-6), all available
machines are connected as two-channel in, two-
channel out. Note that each machine is numbered and
each machine’s I/O configuration is displayed in red at
the lower right corner of its diagrammed block.
When you switch to a new Configuration, no Programs
or Registers are yet loaded, so the Scribble
Strip is blank and the Joystick Status Display is greyed
out.
