How to avoid aliasing when using LFOs?

Hey folks,

I just played around with my Monomachine and did some drum synthesis just for fun. Of course I know, that this is not the main purpose of the MnM … and I remember that people in this community already found out about the fact that you can not sync the start of the oscillators etc. but that is not what my question is about!!

When I was building bass drum sounds, I experimented with one-shot exponential wave LFOs to simulate an ADSR envelope for my kickdrum. When doing so with white noise or some resonant filters, it was just fine. But when modulating a deep sine wave (doesn’t matter if oscillator-generated or oscillating filter) I noticed that the LFO creates aliasing artifacts, ruining my bass drum sound. I found a thread regarding this in the old elektron forum, but with no solution. One could say that this is the digital sharp charme of the Monomachine, others might be asking if this is something avoidable?

So my question is: Are there tricks/methods to avoid this kind of aliasing sound? If not … this wouldn’t be a complete turnoff, don’t get me wrong … I am very pleased of what the MnM already gave to me … but sometimes, this really bothers me :smiley:

Thanks for your input in advance, best regards,
