Why does the LFO 1 for Filter only go to 24?

Post by Citizen » Tue Feb 06, 2024 10:45 am

I find this perplexing — why doesn't the LFO 1 for Filter Freq only go to 24 — and not the full range of the filters range?

Equally, why is the Amount parameter on LFOs 2 and 3 not mappable to a macro?

Basically, I want to create a macro for a multi-instrument that will control the full range of an LFO mapped to a Filter Freq — and I want to be able to have the LFO to oscillate up and down the full frequency spectrum at the Max setting of my Macro.

Is this possible? Is there another way to do it?

I'm presuming you're talking about Sampler?

That certainly seems wrong. The manual reads as if 0-24 is the full range of the filter, but it's clearly not.
If I set LFO2 to control Filter Freq and only set it to 24 out of 100 it sounds the same as LFO 1 at its max of 24.

I suggest you report that as a bug.
