LFO Mode
The “LFO” in LFO Mode stands for Low Frequency Oscillator. A LFO creates
a repeating waveform that oscillates at some desired frequency. It is
referred to as a “Low” frequency oscillator because this frequency is
usually in he sub-audio range (i.e., less than 20 Hz). LFO Mode modulates
the pan position by repeating one of the three basic shapes (pan directions)
at the rate you set it to.
Rate
The ‘Rate’ knob controls the frequency of the LFO and is set in Hz. The
range is from 0.1Hz to 10Hz. A sweep rate of “1 Hertz” (1Hz) means that the
LFO modulation will repeat once per second.
Direction
The direction buttons allow you to select the basic shape that the LFO will
repeat. There are three “directions”: Left-to-Right, Back-and-Forth, and
Right-to-Left. Each button has an arrow on it that tells you what direction it
is. Only one direction can be selected at a time, and the button
corresponding to that direction will be lit.
