Resetting and Re-syncing LFOs
Press
LFO Speed
to reset the LFO Speeds. All channel clock divider/
multipliers and the global clock divider/multiplier will be reset to x1. If you’re using an
external clock or if you had been using an external clock and stopped or unpatched it,
the base tempo from that clock will not be reset. To force the external clock to be re-
read or to reset the base tempo, either load a blank preset or do a full LFO reset.
Press
LFO Speed + LFO Shape
to reset all channel phase offsets. This toggles
between resetting the channels to all be in phase (firing at the same time), versus being
60 degrees out of phase (firing in
sequence). The first time you
press this button combination,
the LFOs will reset to being in-
phase. The next time you press
it, the LFOs will reset to being 60
degrees out of phase. The next
time they will be in-phase, etc…
Tap the
LFO Shape/Phase
knob
by itself to re-sync the phases of
all the channels. Any phase
offset you’ve selected (by
adjusting the phase for individual
channels, and/or by resetting the
phase to 0 or 60 degrees) will be
applied immediately to all
channels. Phase naturally gets
out of sync when adjusting the
speed of channels individually.
Tap the
LFO Shape/Phase
knob
while holding down a
Channel
button
to reset the phase of just
that LFO.
You can reset the phase of all LFOs to 0° (or to 60° later than the previous LFO) by
pressing
LFO Speed + LFO Shape.
The first time you press this, all LFOs will be reset
to 0°, or in-phase. This means all the LFOs will be starting at the same time. The next
time this is pressed, the LFO phases will be set to 0°, 60°, 120°, 180°, 240°, and 300°
for each channel respectively. This means the channels will start their waveshape in a
sequence. Combined with
LFO->VCA
mode, this can be used to create a melodic
sequence (see Tutorial 2: Making a Melody, page 4).
If the LFOs have very different tempos, then the effect of this will not be very distinct.
Press
LFO Speed + LFO Shape
and hold for 1 second to reset all
LFO parameters. This will reset the base tempo, all LFO speeds, shapes, gain,
and phase.

Re-phase LFOs
Downbeat Selection by Re-phasing
You can use the re-phase feature to choose
where the downbeat falls when dividing a clock.
For example, say you’re syncing to an external
clock and the channel clock dividers are all set to
÷3 (and there's no global clock divider set). Let’s
say you count the external clock beats
1-2-3-1-2-3-… and the
SWN
LFOs are all starting
on the "1". If you pressed the
LFO Shape/Phase
knob right before the “2" external clock pulse,
then the
SWN
LFOs would start on the “2"
instead of the “1". You could use this to start
some LFOs on the "2" and some on the "3" and
some on the “1", without having to manually
adjust the phase of each LFO. Each LFO has an
internal counter that counts up to the number of
pulses it needs to see before it resets the LFO.
Pressing this knob sets that counter to its highest
value so that the LFO will start on the next
external clock pulse received.
