LFO RESET - ableton effects (flanger, phaser, auto filter)

Post by gawyss » Sat Nov 15, 2008 11:12 pm

Hi,

Does anybody know how reset LFO in ableton modulation effects (phaser, flanger, auto filter, etc.)?
I supposed that if I use on/off button on effect so I will be able to reset LFO, but it doesnt work. I dont know how do it.

Does ableton know it?

Thanks for your ideas.

Yes, I mean on trigger.

Situation:
I want to use auto filter so I put effect to master channel.
At this moment, effect si already activeted (in top left conrner on/off button is yellow).
I set "rate" to max( 8 ) and increase amount to max( 30 ).
Now, I can hear how track is slowly high cutting and slowly backing to normal position, its 1 cycle.
I dont want to wait to finish 1 long cycle, I want a new cycle (reset lfo).
I cant do this because I dont know how do it.
I supposed that I deactive effect (on/off button is grey) and again I active effect (on/off button is yellow) so I reset LFO cycle. But it doesnt work.
No change, auto filter is still continuing in previous long lfo cycle.

The LFO´s start as soon as you drop a device (Autofilter, Flanger, Phaser, Sampler, ...) in a set or when a set with these devices is opened.
There is no phase reset (only in the retrigger mode of Sampler/Simpler or
beatsynchron LFO`s).
That said, there can be indeed a really slight difference in the rendered result compared
to playback.

Best,
Christian

Hello from 2024!
Nope, still not here. I'll check in again in a few hundreds of years and let you know if the "bast DAW" got that AMAZING feature.
