Applying Cyclic Changes to the
Sound (LFO 1/2)
The LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) provides cyclic
oscillations to sounds. The MC-307 is equipped with two
oscillators, LFO 1 and LFO 2, each of which can be used to
make cyclic changes to the pitch, cutoff frequency and
volume level for each tone, enabling effects like vibrato, wow
and tremolo to be added. As both LFO 1 and LFO 2 have
identical parameters, the descriptions in this apply to both.
