I haven´t tried or used the LFO designer much, but will explore/experiment with it. Maybe something will come out of it, but probably not the initial ‘wish’. But that´s perfectly fine too. I´m just trying to learn more about the LFO´s (and/or other stuff) more in depth, bending the rules and/or limits of my mind regarding them.
Just found out this weekend that the OT doesn´t need samples or live input of sound to be able to create sounds. Really rewarding experience![/quote]
I should read everything before answering.
You nailed it in one sentence, @mkdsl ^^
BTW : what was the need behind the fact that you don’t want to use locks, but rather LFOs ? Would you mind developing this aspect ?

Basically it wasn´t a need per se, but more of a idea that came out of the experiment of what happened when just slicing an simple single kick.
As I did slice that and then played the slices in slice mode, listening to the sound of each slice. I ‘realized’ that there might be a potential of creating the impression of lots of variations of kicks where there in fact are no variations (sort of the impression of having an sample/slice chain). And that these variations could be made via different settings of ie the filter base/width as well as envelope (ie to get more snappy sounds etc).
But playing in slice mode doesn´t AFAIK utilize the p-locks, since they are just slices but NOT the actual steps in the grid sequencer which the p-locks are tied to. So my thought with the LFO´s where that since they can be connected to trig events, playing slices would give me the trig events to get the LFO´s moving and thus getting the variations from them. But it would also mean that there are no distinction between playing the same slice several times in a row or playing different slices. The LFO would run in any case. Not necessarily a bad thing as such, but I was thinking if I could somehow workaround that and get a more controlled behaviour. One could see it as a challenge of trying to get the OT to do something it´s not supposed or designed to do.
Will see what options the LFO designer gives me.
