PROG P5: EG/LFO/MSEQ 5–4: LFO1, 5–5: LFO2
39
5–4: LFO1,
5–5: LFO2
Here you can make settings for the LFO (Low Frequency
Oscillator).
LFO1 is internally connected as the oscillator 1 Control 1
modulation source.
LFO2 is internally connected as the modulation source for
the oscillator pitch controlled by the joystick +Y axis (or
MIDI control change message CC#01 received from a
connected external MIDI device)
Here you can:
Select the LFO waveform and make settings such as its
frequency.
Specify whether the LFO will be reset by note-on. (Key
Sync)
Make settings for synchronizing LFO to the tempo.
5–4(5)a: LFO 1, LFO2
Waveform
[Saw, Square, Square+, Triangle, Sine, S&H]
Selects the LFO waveform.
For LFO1 you can choose from Saw, Square, Triangle, and S/
H.
For LFO2 you can choose from Saw, Square+, Sine, and S/
H.
Phase (Initial Phase) [000…180]
Specifies the starting position of the LFO waveform. This
parameter is valid if KeySync is set to 1st Note or Each
Note.
With a setting of 0, modulation will start from the “zero
point” and begin ascending the positive portion of the LFO
wave. A setting of 90 will begin at the highest point of the
LFO wave.
With a setting of 180, modulation will start from the “zero
point” and begin descending the negative portion of the
LFO wave.
Shape [–63…+63]
Modifies the shape of the waveform selected by Waveform.
(p.39 Fig. “LFO Waveform and Shape”)
Frequency [Hz] [0.01…100.0Hz]
Specifies the frequency of the LFO. This is shown and can be
edited if TempoSync is Off. Higher values will make the
LFO faster.
Key Sync [Off, 1st Note, Each Note]
Specifies whether the LFO will reset at each new note-on
message.
Off: The phase of the LFO will not be reset when a note-on
occurs.
