SQ-80 — Musician's Manual 
8. L2 
This is LEVEL 2, the Level that the LFO will reach at the end of the Ramp defined by the 
DELAY. It will remain at this Level until the key is released. 
Range: 0 To 63. 
10. MOD 
Selects the Modulation Source for LFO depth. The effect of this Modulator is added
,
 to the 
amount of 
LFO depth provided by the Ramp defined by Controls # 6, 7 and 8. 
Note that the 
LFO itself can be used to modulate its own Output, or that of another LFO, 
producing unusual LFO waveforms. 
The final, 
modulated, LFO Output is then available as a Modulation Source, whose depth can 
be adjusted precisely using the Modulation Depth controls on the other Pages. 
Note: To use the MOD Wheel for Vibrato within a Program (perhaps the most common application 
for an LFO):
 
1)  assign WHEEL as the Modulator for an LFO, 
2) 
set Ll and DELAY to Zero for that LFO, and 
3)  assign that LFO to modulate the Pitch of the Oscillators (OSC 1-3 Pages), with a 
modulation depth of around +2 to +5) 
Within the Factory Sounds that came with your 
SQ-80, LFO 1 is always used for Wheel Vibrato 
(where it is applicable). 
To use the Pressure for Vibrato within a Program, you follow almost the same procedure: 
1)  assign PRESS as the Modulator for an LFO, 
2)  set 
L1 and DELAY to Zero for that LFO, and 
3)  assign that LFO to modulate the Pitch of the Oscillators 
(OSC 1-3 Pages), with a 
modulation depth of around +2 to +5), 
Make sure PRESS=KEY or PRESS=CHAN on the 
MIDI Page, depending on which type of 
Pressure you want.
