A component within an electronic keyboard that sweeps back and forth in a particular shape (waveform) at a very slow rate of speed. Used to create continuous (periodic) change to the volume, pitch, or timbre of a sound.
Low-frequency oscillator. An oscillator especially devoted to applications below the audible frequency range, and typically used as a control source for modulating a sound to create vibrato, tremolo, trills, and so on.
a low frequency oscillator that is used to alter a sound's frequency or amplitude.
See Low Frequency Oscillator.
Low Frequency Oscillator. This is a very slow moving oscillator that is used to modulate a synth's sound. Modulate the VCO to create a vibrato. Modulate the filter section for nice slow automatic filter sweeps. Modulate the VCA envelope for tremolo effects. The LFO can have waveform shapes of square, ramp, sine, triangle, random or more and it's speed (rate) and onset (delay) are often controllable.
Low Frequency Oscillator: used for making things go all wobbly.
Low-Frequency Oscillator. What Korg calls a "Modulation Generator".
The low frequency oscillator, a device that is used to modulate other parameters at sub audio frequencies (i.e. around 30 cycles per second or less).
Abbr.f. "Low Frequency Oscillator". An oscillator used as a modulation source. Often found in synths or effects using modulation.
