Patchwork LFO Modulator Device

Use the Low-Frequency Oscillator (LFO) Modulator to adjust or modulate another Patchwork device in a customized pattern and rate.

You can connect the LFO output to any visible input port on another Patchwork device. Because the LFO outputs a continuous value that changes over time, it's especially useful for turning a knob control to create repeating audio patterns.

Device Options

Low Frequence Oscillator device diagram

Option	Values	Description
1. Enabled Switch	On, Off	When disabled, the targeted control is not modified.
2. Expand Buttons	Closed, Open	Expand the device to reveal more customization options.
3. Modulator Cable	N/A	The Modulation cable should be patched to a control on another Patchwork device.
4. MIN / MAX Knobs	N/A	Sets the minimum and maximum value of the modulation for the selected waveform.
5. Waveform visualizer	N/A	Shows the current waveform defined by device settings, with a moving indicator showing the current output value.
6. Shape	-1.0 - 1.0, default 0	Modifies the modulation pattern of the selected waveform.
7. Timing Style	Straight, Triplet, Dotted	Selects the style for the chosen Step Rate, if the rate is not set to Free. Straight will divide the pulse by halves, Triplet will divide the pulse by thirds, and Dotted will create a more syncopated feel.
8. Offset	0.0 - 1.0	Sets a delay in the modulation timing after the beat. This knob appears on the device when Step Rate is set to any option other than Free.
9. Waveform	Sine, Triangle, Saw, Square, Random, Wobble	Adjust the shape of the modulation pattern.
10. Rate	32 Bars -1/64 Note plus Free, default 1/2 Note	Sets the length of time for the LFO to output a cycle of the selected waveform. When set to Free, use the Speed control to define the time.
