The Low Frequency Oscillator

I can't really get my head around the LFO, is there one global or one per voice and why is there a lot of blanks in the target list?

  • there is one per voice.
    Each LFO can modulate a parameter of ANY voice.
    The blanks in the target list will disappear once I have a good idea how to organize the target list ;)
    at the moment the blanks are spacers between the different synth section pages (osc, mix, filter etc).

    another thing to mention is the way modulations are handled.
    the LFO will output a value between 0.0 and 1.0 and this value is multiplied with the targets parameter value.
    So even when set to full mod amount, it won't modulate a target parameter set to zero.
    with full mod amount the target parameter will be modulated between it's current value and zero.

    Okay, I found the right chapter, it's per voice and then some. Nice feature!
    But the target list is still full of blanks... and it seems like the modulation is not always working.
    Alright then!
  • Why did you do it like this with the LFO's... I noticed it behaved in this way but i don't yet see the benefits of it.
    Why don't you just sum the parameter + LFO modutation?

    I have to admit I was cutting corners there.
    It's way easier to multiply and don't care about parameter boundaries and ranges ;)
    I'll try and see how hard a 'propper' implementation would be.
    In the end the current version worked for me and there were lot's of other things to code.

    I added this to the 'nice to have' section of the known bugs list.
