LFO midi clock phase lock

#1

Ok. Sorry for bringing this up again, but I have experimented a lot trying to get a LFO to lock to the incoming midi signal. The LFO freq has to be phase locked... that means that it has to be reset every time a new midi beat is present.

I cant say that i 100% know what i am doing, but about 80%:slight_smile:

I tried this, and get tempo lock, but not complete phase lock. If i output a midi clock from my DAW, at say, 120 bpm. I can adjust the phase pot to get the rigth resetting for each beat. It will be correct each time i stop/start the DAW. If i then output a midi clock at say, 200bpm, i have to adjust the phase again. And it will be right every time i stop/start the daw.

If I then adjust the DAW tempo down to 50 bpm, i have to adjust the phase again....

How do I do this the correct way?

THANKS!:slight_smile:

Have you looked at the MIDI syncable LFO module here?

It's phase locked, but perhaps not what you need otherwise?

Thanks:) I would like to use sirsicksics module since it allows for more flexibility when controlling his non built in lfos. With sirsicks lfos I can control waveforms etc better. But I might just give in and use the solution you pointed to:)

You can use waveshaper modules. SirSickSik and Toneburst have several, and new ones can be made quite easily by using standard modules.

Ok. I will try that then:)

There's a new version of the syncable LFO with selectable waveforms - this gives you a variety of ramps suitable for driving waveshapers. They can be found here.
