The table on p8 is there to allow you to construct sysex messages for effect
parameters i.e. so that you know which data byte value to send for a
specific LFO value. (its not there so that you can understand the values
from the front panel....since the synth has the lookup table built in, it
kindly displays the effect values in the correct units on the front panel).
AN1xEdit does exactly the same thing.

However the actual LFO module of the AN voice generator i.e. LFO 1 & 2 (not
the effects) simply displays LFO SPEED values in the range 1 - 256. Yamaha
have not provided a lookup table to translate these values into Hz. Again
An1xEdit behaves the same way (since I was unable to obtain from Yamaha what
the corresponding frequency values are!).
