LFO Shell and Display
LFO On This turns the LFO (low-frequency oscillator) on and off. Turning it off when it is
unused saves some CPU power.
LFO Waveform Select from among several typical LFO waveforms. Sample and Hold
(S&H) 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 (Amount) 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 to Filter Cutoff Frequency (Destination FIL) The LFO modulates the cutoff frequency
of the lter 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.
