SPECTRALIS 2
[Page]-button
Using the [Page-Up/Down]-buttons you can address the other three
Master-LFO's directly.
[LFO-Wave] - Waveform selection for LFO's
This encoder changes the waveformselection of all four Master-LFO's
simultaneously. The LFO's of the Spectralis provide non-detent waveform
selection.
If set to value 0 you select a sinewaveform.
If set to value 63 you select a triange waveform.
If set to value 127 you select a sawtooth waveform.
If set to value 192 you select a rectangle waveform.
If set to value 255 you select random.
In between values create transitional forms between the major waveforms
LFO Waveform start-point
The Spectralis allows both - a "freerunning" mode, in which the LFO's continue
oscillating totally independent from your keypresses, and a LFO fixed starting
point mode where a played note will start the LFO on a desired phase starting
point. This starting point is also referred to as start-phase. In freerunning
operation the LFO is not being stopped anytime. Depending on when you push
a key, the waveform-output will be at a different spot of the waveform. As a
result the amount of a parameter change using the LFO's will be different with
each keystroke. As a result a self oscillating LFO is a simple way to create
lively sounds.
Push the [LFO-Wave]-Encoder to open the LFO-Wave menu. You will see the
following diplay message:
Master LFO Wave Menu
´`LWve:0 ´`LWve:0 ´`LWve:0 ´`LWve:0
The encoders assigned to the display in this menu allow the editing of the
waveform or all 4 Master-LFO's individually. When using one of the encoder
buttons, you will find yourself in the menu for setting the startphase:
1/4:Master LFO 1 Waveform Control
LWve:0 LPhs:0
While the first parameter will only repeat the waveform-selection parameter,
the second parameter
[LPhs]
enables the setting of the startphase. At a value of "0" the LFO has been
set to freerunning mode - values other than 0 generate a fixed startphase
for the LFO. Using the [Page]-buttons you can dial up the parameterpages
for all 4 LFO's.
