The time settings
The [LOOP] function applies a loop between to points of the envelope (0>4 or 0><4). When the key
is released, the loop is interrupted and the movement cycle of the joystick is finished.

The Galaxy module is able to create very complex and interesting modulation signals by using the
interaction of three LFOs.
The three Galaxy LFOs are named LFO A, LFO B and LFO Phi. The output of LFO A can be thought of
as a point moving on the A axis of an A/B plane. Likewise, the LFO B output can be thought of as a
point moving on the B axis in the same plane. When we combine these two points we can construct
a point floating through the plane, which has its A coordinate described by LFO A and its B
coordinate described by LFO B.
Galaxy
The Galaxy [Output X] is the projection of this point on the X axis of an X/Y plane. [Output Y] is the
projection of this point on the Y axis of the X/Y plane. If the [phi] knob is set to zero, A/B and X/Y
are identical. By changing phi, we can rotate the A/B plane with respect to the X/Y plane.
However, when phi is static (not modulated), the outputs of the Galaxy is still quite simple
waveforms.
