good suggestion...

you mean like swing?  it's global...

did you know you can see them (the numeric LFO settings ) if
you go to the routing page?

BTW, I tried out using two LFO's at once last night..a simple experiment,
I added two LFO's together, both modulating FLTF, and it added them
together!  It worked extremely nicely, in fact!  It was easy to make
interference effects and also one of my long-time desires: a tiny, fast
LFO, riding on top of a deep, slow one was quickly realized.  

However, I could not get one LFO to modulate another...I set LFO 5 to mod
the filter with a slow speed (around 5), then I set LFO 6 to modulate LFOS
of track 5, but it did not speed up and slow down as expected...I played
with the depth, speed and shape settings extensively, but could not get
results..

can't help with this one (sounds like sidstation wavetable editing mode:) )

stereo lfo pan...mmm

I had a similar problem.  If you have LFO 6 set to
"Trig" (and presumably "Hold" and "Free" as well,
haven't used those tho) then it needs to have notes on
at least one of the steps on Track 6 to work. 
Apparently even if it's modulating a parameter on
another track, the triggers still exist on it's actual
track.

hope that helps,
corey

nah, dude, I still can't get one to modulate the other...I tried
with several instruments...tried using 5 to mod filter and 6 to mod
5, and then 6 to mod filter and 5 to mod 6, again with all depths and
speeds, but no luck.... also tried all triggering options, with notes
on both tracks.

heh in the mantime though , discovered, you can mix THREE LFO's together
and they add!  It's insane!
