First LFO

An LFO is just an oscillator used as a slow control source instead of an audible tone.

Step 1: Start with a filter patch

Section titled “Step 1: Start with a filter patch”

Build:

osc -> flt -> out

Step 2: Add a slow source

Section titled “Step 2: Add a slow source”

Add another osc and lower its frequency until it moves slowly.

Step 3: Use it as modulation

Section titled “Step 3: Use it as modulation”

Connect the slow oscillator to a destination like flt.frequency or osc.detune.

Now the target parameter moves over time instead of staying fixed.

What changed

Section titled “What changed”

You still have the same patch language as before.

The difference is only the role of the signal: it is no longer there to be heard directly, but to control something else.
