Subject: LFO VALUES ALMOST FIGURED OUT!!!!!!

From: "i don't have one!" <elektro_dan@...>
Date: 2001-03-01

after calling yamaha for the millionth time about the lfo-Hz values
they told me to use the converson table for the A3000. after trying it
out it was really off!!! nowhere close!!

anyway i realized that yamaha will never help me on this issue so i
decided to figure it out my self (and with the help of others in this
group)

i used the metronome in cubase, a sound that i created on the
plg150an(an1x) that has it's filter modulated by LFO 1 using a
squarewave. i made a note 2 bars long starting at the exact begining
of bar 1, set the tempo to 140, and used REGGIE'S plg150an MTM script
to adjust the value for LFO 1 inside cubase. i looped those 2 bars and
ajusted the lfo value untill i got a 1/4 note modulation at a tempo of
140. i made shure it was as close to perfect as possible and it is.

ANYWAY, A LFO VALUE OF 49 AT A TEMPO OF 140 WILL GIVE YOU A 1/4 NOTE
MODULATION. KEEP IN MIND THAT I AM USING GARY GREGSON'S PLG150AN
EDITOR AND REGGIE'S PLG150AN MTM SCRIPTS WHICH HAVE A LFO RANGE FROM
1-256.

NOW I NEED THE HELP OF PEOPLE IN THIS GROUP. THERE HAS TO BE SOME WAY
OF USING THIS INFORMATION THAT I DISCOVERED TO MAKE A LFO-HZ
CONVERSON CHART FOR THE PLG150AN (AN1X) SOME CALCULATION? I DON'T
KNOW? THAT'S WHERE YOU COME IN. MABYE MY INFO ISN'T ENOUGH? LET ME
KNOW.

LET'S FIGURE THIS OUT. IT WILL HELP US ALL!!!

HOPEFULLY SOMEONE WILL MAKE A CONVERSON CHART AND POST IT IN THE FILES
AREA OF AN1X LIST E-GROUP PAGE.
