MIDI CLOCK
When the LFO SYNC switch is set to “MIDI”, a MIDI clock signal retriggers the
start of the LFO cycle, similar to the way Oscillator Sync works. Because the
Voyager has an analog LFO – the LFO Rate itself is not automatically set to the
clock frequency – just the start of the LFO cycle. Adjusting the LFO Rate to a
different rate relative to the MIDI clock signal can yield some interesting LFO
patterns.
To learn how to use this:
- Call up a preset that has audible LFO modulation and a
sustaining tone.
- Switch the LFO sync switch to MIDI. Make sure the Clock divider
value is maximum.
- Send a MIDI clock signal to the Voyager.
- Now, slow the LFO rate down all the way, and play a note and hold it. You
should here the LFO triggered at every second MIDI tick. Now increase the LFO
rate until it closely matches the half note tempo of the song. You have now
synced the LFO to the tempo of the music. Because the LFO is triggered by the
MIDI clock, it can't drift off tempo.
