Low Frequency Oscillator
LFO Sync:
When on, the LFO synchronizes with the arpeggiator,
sequencer, or MIDI clock. By default, the LFO wave cycle is reset when you
press a key (but is not reset if you press a key while other notes are held).
Shape:
Triangle, Sawtooth, Reverse Sawtooth, Square, Random
—The
wave shape of the LFO. A sixth waveshape, noise, can be generated by
selecting
random
and turning the
frequency
knob all the way to the right.
Amount:
Sets the initial amount of LFO modulation routed to the
selected destinations. Setting an amount here applies the selected modu-
lation continuously. If you set this parameter to zero but still select a
modulation destination, modulation is only applied when using the Mod
Wheel.
Freq 1:
Selects the frequency of Oscillator 1 as a modulation destination.
Use a triangle wave as a source to create vibrato. Use a square wave to
create trills.
Freq 2:
Selects the frequency of Oscillator 2 as a modulation destination.
Freq 3:
Selects the frequency of Oscillator 3 as a modulation destination.
Can be applied while Oscillator 3 is in
lo
mode.
PW 1:
When Oscillator 1 is set to square wave, this modulates the pulse
width of the wave. Use a triangle wave LFO to create a chorus-like effect
often used to emulate strings.
PW 2:
When Oscillator 2 is set to square wave, this modulates the pulse
width of the wave.
PW 3:
When Oscillator 3 is set to square wave, this modulates the pulse
width of the wave. Can be applied while Oscillator 3 is in
lo
mode.
Filter:
Selects the Filter frequency as a modulation destination. Use a
triangle wave LFO to create an auto-wah effect. Modulating Filter at high
frequencies can create interesting timbres.
Amp:
Selects the amplitude level as a modulation destination. Use a
triangle wave LFO to create a tremolo effect.
