SPD (speed) is a linear controller that sets a base speed that is multiplied with the MULT
parameter, always in relation to the master tempo. The use of both a speed controller and a
multiplier allows a very wide range of speeds, but still provides a high degree of control. To
get the finest resolution keep the MULT parameter set as low as possible.

Increasing SPD values gives shorter LFO cycle times. Each increase of the Multiplier
halves the LFO cycle time. For LFO speed synchronised to straight beats, try setting SPD
to 16, 32, 64 or 127. For example setting the MULT to 2x and SPD to 64 gives a cycle time
of sixteen 16th notes (one full page).

INTL (interlace) is a function taken straight from the Sidstation. Interlace is the process of
alternating the LFO waveform with zero. The speed of the zero-alternating cycles is con-
trolled by the INTL parameter. The interlace is switched off when set to zero.

DPTH (depth) is the amount of the LFO output level that is applied to the target parameter.
Setting DPTH to 127 allows for modulating a parameter to and from any extreme value. For
example, if the target parameter is set to 64 a DPTH setting of 64 is sufficient for modulat-
ing the target value to its minimum (0) and maximum (127).
