WAVESHAPE Range: various (see below)
Determines how the LFO signal will rise and fall. There are seven possible values:
• TRIANGLE — the triangle wave is commonly used to modulate pitch to produce vibrato.
• SINE/TRI — a mixture of a sine and triangle wave, a sort of pointy sine wave.
• SINE — the sine wave is a pure fundamental frequency, more rounded in its peaks and valleys
than the triangle wave.
• POS/TRI — the POS/TRI is a positive-only triangle wave useful for simulating vibrato on
sounds like the guitar, where vibrato techniques are limited to bending the note up.
• POS/SINE — the POS/SINE is a positive-only sine wave, similar in application to the
POS/TRI.
• SAWTOOTH — the sawtooth wave is commonly used for special effects.
• SQUARE — this positive-only square wave is useful for producing in-tune trill effects.
