300: Re: nailing down an LFO

To assign a sinewave to a program select an LFO (1 or 2) as a modulation source in one of the VAST blocks, set the modulation depth to some noticeable level and then go to the LFO page to adjust frequency and waveform. LFOs will automatically start at the zero point when you trigger the layer except if using LFO2 with globals set to "on" on the misc page, in which case LFO2 will continue oscillating even when no layers are triggered so it will not be synced to note triggers.

Daniel sez :
>>> I have tried (and obviously failed) to emulate the sound/noise Depeche Mode uses in the first few seconds of 'I Feel You' from their 'Songs Of Faith And Devotion'-album. They also begin the Zephyr-mix of 'In Your Room' with a very similar noise. So my question is; how on earth do they produce such a sound? I have tried with keymaps with play-modes set to 'Noise' and some lo-pass resonant filtering, but I just cant get it right (or even close). >>>
Aha, could there be a better way to start again on the list ? I'm a huge DM fan myself. I'll have a go at this tomorrow and let you know what I come up with.
Maybe a sample combined with an algortihm with DIST/WRAP in it would do the trick. As for the sample itself ? No idea.
WRAP->SHAPER->DIST coul do, with SHAPER set at a multiple of .25 to smooth up the wrap effect.
Or maybe you don't want to smooth up the wrapping effect.

Wrong assumption! The effects only come out of the MIX outs, and then only for sounds routed to the A bus. The manual states that any time you plug into the A thru D outputs, it will take that signal out of the MIX and route it DRY to the output.
This signal routing allows the K to use the A insert bus to route analog signals in thru the effects unit and back out to the MIX outs. (note that these jacks are actually insert points with an output and an input connection).

If you're running out of polyphony very quickly (as the original post suggests) make sure you don't have any of the B3 presets selected on any channel. They eat polyphony, even if you aren't using them.

The Visible FUN page has been revived! You can access this program by
going to my page or directly by going to:
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~robw/fun/fun.html
Have FUN!

This page about Visible FUN is still there, it should be mirrored on the wiki, perhaps?
