Subject: Re: LFO in sync with sequencer

Well, I hope you're glad with what it does already - :-(

LFO restart/free run already exists. Extended parameters 16 and 17
correspond to LFO1 and LFO2 free-running mode. 0=note on re-triggered,
1=free running.

The phasing is also something I want to do but that is going to be a
part of the LFO code rewrite. As it stands now, the original LFO won't
go slow enough for my tastes. I have already built two SLFO's using a
lookup table that has sine, square, triangle, saw and reverse saw. I
plan to rewrite the existing code to use those lookup tables instead
of the original calculated values. Once that is done, I should be able
to shoe horn the LFO code into the sequencer much easier as well as
may it run really slow and also give many different waveform options.

Just don't hold your breath waiting. The full software may take
another year to complete.

But please do tell me that you're having fun with the features as they
stand now???

Mike.
