Note that the built-in LFO is always applied as a stereo
quadrature pair whereas any modulation of the Phaser
frequency via the Mod Matrix will always be in-phase
mono. Both have a distinctly different sound and you can
use both together to get some very interesting effects.
Note that the built-in Phaser LFO does not have a MIDI
sync feature – if you need Phaser modulation that is in
sync to your song, modulate the Phaser frequency with one
of the main LFOs via the Mod Matrix.
Keep a close eye on levels when using large amounts of
Phaser feedback, especially when combined with resonant
filter settings otherwise the Output Limiter will kick in to
constrain the peaks. If you are getting resonant peaks that
mean the overall Patch level is too low, you may wish to
reduce the feedback or filter resonance to regain control of
the peaks.
Chorus/Flanger Module
Kyra’s Chorus/Flanger module is very versatile. It is able
to deliver a range of effects including those associated with
comb filters, chorus units, flangers, doublers and slap-back
delays. As with all the effects modules, Kyra has a Cho-
rus/Flanger module on each Part and each module has a
dedicated dual output (quadrature) LFO to provide modu-
lation effects.
Experience and your ears will soon guide you with the best
configuration for the Chorus/Flanger module but be sure
to check out the preset Patches for some examples. As a
programming note, be aware that as a delay effect, high
