Table 1: Valid MIDI controllers, their corresponding CV
outputs, and default values.

The A-191’s internal MIDI-synchronised LFO has three
waveforms - sawtooth, triangle, and rectangle.

This LFO is only active when a MIDI clock is being
sent to the MIDI IN, from a START or CONTINUE
message until a STOP message. LED 8 indicates
that it’s active.

At a STOP message, the voltage at the CV output is
held; at a CONTINUE message, the LFO starts from
this value; and at a START message, the waveform
begins again, starting from 0 V.

The LFO rate can be slowed down by dividing the
clock rate. You set the divisor either with MIDI
controller #92
(Tremolo Depth) or manually, with
buttons 2 and/or 3.

The note length N of a full cycle of the waveform
generated by the LFO follows this formula :
Nth Note = 1/16 x controller value (see Table 2)
So, for instance, in 4/4 time, with a controller value of
8, the note length of a full LFO cycle would be half of a
whole note: that is, the LFO would cycle twice for each
beat in the bar (see Fig. 1).
