The DEPTH parameter sets the output level of LFO1. This acts as a master LFO modulation
control for all destinations that have LFO1 routed to them. In this way, if you wish to change the
modulation level going to
all
destinations easily, simply change this parameter.
The DELAY parameter sets the time it takes for the LFO1 effect to take place after a note-on.
At 00, the effect will be instantaneous but at 99 the effect of LFO1 to take effect will be
delayed. I.e:
NOTE ON
This can be useful on certain sounds such as strings or vocal sounds where vibrato gradually
fades in.
Use F1 to select DEPTH and use the DATA wheel to set the value and press F2 to select
DELAY and use the DATA wheel to set its value.
NOTE 1: You may find that nothing happens when you route LFO1 to a destination and set a
modulation level at the destination’s input. This will be because LFO1’s depth is set to 00 in
this page. This may seem a strange default at first but the reason is to do with the use of the
modwheel for vibrato. In order to be able to have the modwheel for vibrato as an immediate
effect, the LFO depth needs to be at 00 otherwise, there will be constant LFO modulation of
pitch. It is only when you are using LFO1 to apply a constant vibrato or for something other
than vibrato in specialist applications that you will need to specifically set the depth control
here.
NOTE 2: To add vibrato to a sound (i.e. to strings to ‘animate’ them a little), assuming the
PITCHMOD1-LFO1 page is set to +50, the default, a value or 01 or 02 in the DEPTH parameter
on this page is sufficient to add just a hint of vibrato.
The next page down looks something like this:
This selects whether the LFOs (all 32 of them!) are synchronised or not. With SYNC set to
OFF, the LFOs are not synchronised (in other words, they all going at a very slightly different
rate) and so give a rich texture to ensemble sounds when being used for vibrato. When SYNC
is set to ON, all LFOs are in sync. This latter option is probably more suited for use with
synthesiser effects. You will find that slower LFO speeds are possible with SYNC set to ON.
The next LFO1 page looks like this:
This page allows you to set the level of modulation that will be introduced via the modwheel or
aftertouch. These work in conjunction with the DEPTH parameter described above. Even with
DEPTH set to 00, you may still use the modwheel for vibrato and other modulation and there is
nothing you need to specifically set up for modwheel control of vibrato.
Setting DEPTH to something other than 00 will set a basic level of modulation that will be
present in the sound all the time and the modwheel (or aftertouch) will introduce more again.
