The Lfo Section; Sync Mode - Steinberg PADSHOP Manual Del Usario

The LFO Section

Padshop features two monophonic LFOs. In this context, monophonic means that the
LFOs are calculated once and feed multiple voices at the same time.
Wave and Shape
The following waveforms are available on the Wave pop-up menu:
Option
Sine
Triangle
Saw
Square
S&H 1
S&H 2
Rate
Controls the frequency of the modulation, that is, the "speed" of the LFO.
Sync
When Sync is active, the frequency is set in fractions of beats.

Sync Mode

Specifies how the LFO is retriggered. The following options are available:
Option
Beat
First Note
Each Note
Description
Produces smooth modulation, suitable for vibrato or tremolo. The Shape
parameter adds additional harmonics to the waveform.
This waveform is similar in character to Sine. The waveform periodically
ramps up and down. The Shape parameter continuously changes the
triangle waveform to a trapezoid.
Produces a ramp cycle. The Shape parameter continuously changes the
waveform from ramp down to triangle to ramp up.
Produces stepped modulation, where the modulation switches abruptly
between two values. The Shape parameter continuously changes the ratio
between the high and low state of the waveform. With Shape set to 50 %,
a square wave is produced.
Produces randomly stepped modulation. The Shape parameter puts ramps
between the steps and changes the S&H into a smooth random signal
when turned fully right.
This waveform is similar to S&H 1. The steps are alternating between
random high and low values.
Description
Synchronizes the LFO restart to the transport of the host application and
aligns it to the beats of the project.
The LFO restarts when a note is triggered and no other note is held.
The LFO restarts each time a note is triggered.
