LFOs

LFO’s or Low Frequency Oscillators are a frequency below 20 hz (Human Hearing) that uses a selectable waveform to create a rhythmic sequence in a synthesized sound. In class, during the third week we explored Modular Synthesis and one of the projects was to make a distinct synth sound using one of the aforementioned LFO’s. LFO’s can be used to modify filters, volume, and pitch. The products were very interesting, though sometimes it was difficult to get it working in the beginning.
