CHAPTER 23. LIVE INSTRUMENT REFERENCE 403
LFO Waveform Select from among several typical LFO waveforms. Sample and Hold
creates random steps, and Noise supplies bandpass-ltered noise. All waveforms are band-
limited to avoid unwanted clicks.
LFO Range The LFO covers an extreme frequency range. Choose Low for a range from
50 seconds to 30 Hz, or Hi for 8 Hz to 12 kHz. Sync causes the LFO's rate to be synced to
your Set's tempo. Due to the possible high frequencies, the LFO can also function as a fth
oscillator.
Retrigger (R) When enabled, the LFO restarts at the same position in its phase each time
a note is triggered. With R disabled, the LFO is free-running.
LFO Rate (Rate) This sets the rate of the LFO. The actual frequency also depends on the
setting of the LFO Range and the LFO Rate<Key controls.
LFO Amount (Mod) This sets the overall intensity of the LFO. Note that the actual effect
also depends on the LFO envelope.
LFO to Osc (Destination A-D) The LFO modulates the frequency of the respective oscillator
if this is turned on.
LFO Amount A This sets the intensity of the LFO's modulation of the oscillators and lter.
LFO Destination B This sets the second modulation destination for the LFO.
LFO Amount B This sets the intensity of the LFO's modulation of the secondary target.
LFO Envelope Rates<Velocity (Time<Vel) This parameter exists for lter, pitch, LFO and
volume envelopes. It is therefore listed in the section on envelopes.
LFO Rate<Key (Rate<Key) The LFO's frequency can be a function of note pitch. If this is set
to 100%, the LFO will double its frequency per octave, functioning like a normal oscillator.
LFO Amount<Velocity (Amt<Vel) This setting adjusts modulation of the LFO intensity by
note velocity.

Osc On This turns the oscillator on and off.
