LOW FREQUENCY OSCILLATORS (LFO’s)

•

If you select the same destination for two different LFO tracks their outputs will be
added, making advanced layered LFO’s possible.

•

You can let a number LFO’s control several parameters of a machine. This allows
for percussion sounds that are constantly changing.

•

Note that an LFO can modulate another LFO’s parameters as well, as long as the
modulated LFO is on a higher track. The LFO 03 can modulate the parameters of
the LFO 04, but not vice versa.

•

Copy, paste, clear and undo functions are available for the LFO’s.
