If this is already a little over your head, then think about We’ll take a look at those three uses, but, depending on your synthesizer’s capabilities, an LFO can be assigned to affect numerous parameters.įor a more in-depth look, check out this video, “Choosing LFO Shapes and Parameters,” from Sweetwater’s resident synth guru Daniel Fisher’s Synth Clips series. LFOs can be used to modulate parameters on your synthesizer, such as an oscillator’s pitch, the cutoff frequency of a voltage-controlled filter, and pulse-width modulation.
So, what is an LFO? Like the name implies, it’s an oscillator, but it operates below the audible spectrum ( i.e., below 20Hz). Simple ways it can be used when designing patches. Of the most important modulators - the low-frequency oscillator (LFO) - and some In the first of a four-part series, we’ll take a look at one Your own sounds through experimentation and design.įor classic subtractive synthesizers like the Moog Subsequent 25 or ARP Odyssey, every patch starts with one or more oscillators, which are then shaped by filters and modulators to create a seemingly endless array of sounds.
Them down to their component sections (OSC, VCF, ADSR, LFO, etc.) and build up Sure, many come with loads of fun presets That they are a platform to create your own instrument rather than being Marching Percussion Accessories Shop By CategoryĪmong musical instruments, synthesizers are wholly unique in
