OT Fun with LFOs and Retrigs (Pickup machine twist)

Elektronauts Sandbox

This is a trick that was posted to the old forum that involves using LFOs to mess with retrigs and sample start time:

The little twist I put on this was:

  1. Pickup Machine on Track 1
  2. Flex Machine on Track 3, sample slot set to Recorder 1 (Track 1’s recorder)
  3. Record loop on Track 1
  4. On Track 3, assign LFO1 to RTIM and LFO2 to sample start
  5. On Track 3, set FX to Comb Filter

I skipped the bit in the old post about using LFO Designer - just used regular triangle wave.

Fun stuff that I look forward to exploring more deeply, after hurting my brain studying Anders’ stuff. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

It’s tons o’ fun, even more fun with LFO set to Random instead of Triangle.

This was from last Sunday’s band rehearsal - I start off the track looping my viola w/ pickup machine. Later in the track, I fade in the Flex machine track for the LFO/Retrig/Sample Start mangling. Live harmonica and guitar/guitar synth by my bandmates.
