Multi-LFO's

2001-07-23 by shifty@gweep.net

well, here I am, trapped at work, getting a release out
by 5 PM.  My Machine drum is sitting happily in its cardboard
box next to me...I can't use it until I am done, but while compiling,
I am fanatsizing about what I realized this morning, peeking at
the instructions before speeding into the train....

having spent 3 solid hours in front of the TV with headphones on programming
patterns and sequencing them into a nifty song last night.  ( I like
watching nature shows and car races while I program).  my roommate called it
an "epic attention span" that "also speaks highly of that THING".

Now I'm recalling what I can hardly believe...the 16 LFO's can be used on
any track?  and can even modulate each other!!!!!  is this for real?
Has anyone trie dthis?  I will notbe able to until late tonight.  this
blows my mind...what happens if two LFOs modulate the same parameter?
are they added?  or does one take precedence?  is it random which one
you get?

Mmmm it was so fun last night to set the bass to distortion and "harm" and
using pitch to make grundgey guitar chunking.  Then, to use toms with ring
mod pitch up high, but only locking ring mod depth to non-zero for specific
steps for emphasis...

And now...recalling the joy of that PI kit....what was the sound?  MT...
with its highly unusual parameters...they all seemed to hange the pitch
in ways I cannot clearly model....PTCH, TUNE and SIZE
