Interface Overview

The LFO Page displays the selected track name and the active LFO Slot for that track. The LFO waveform is shown in the center of the display, while the top part of the display shows the slot settings, including RATE, AMPLITUDE, and DESTINATION.

On the Grid Pads, LFOs for each track are arranged horizontally. Each row corresponds to a track, while the columns within each row represent the LFO slots stored for that track.

Selecting a track is done by pressing the corresponding Track Button  , and selecting an LFO Slot is achieved by pressing the appropriate Grid Pad.

Reliq provides a dedicated LFO per track, with up to 128 slots per track per project. By creating, sequencing, and changing slots in real time, LFOs can be treated as a composition tool for generating complex, evolving patterns.

LFO Slot Settings

Each track’s LFO has 128 slots that can be stored, recalled, and sequenced. Each LFO Slot contains the following settings:

DESTINATION

Defines the destination of the LFO modulation, which can be either an internal track parameter (e.g., Probability, Velocity) or an external device parameter (via MIDI Control Change or Control Voltage). The LFO destinations will differ depending on whether the current track output is MIDI or CV.

• MIDI Out:

• Velocity

• Probability

• CC

• CV Out:

• CVA

• CVB

• Probability

WAVE

The waveform of the LFO, which can be interpolated through the Wave parameter. (For a list of available waveforms, refer to the Technical Specifications at the end of this chapter.)

SYNC

Determines whether the LFO is synchronized with the sequencer clock or runs freely.

RATE

Specifies the rate of the LFO. When synchronized with the sequencer clock, the RATE is set in musical intervals. When running freely, the RATE is specified in Hz.

• Synched Range: 1/32t – 1/1

• Free Range: 0.01Hz – 57.65Hz

AMPLITUDE

Controls the amplitude of the LFO. When used on a CV Track, the LFO is bipolar by default. For instance, at 100% amplitude, the LFO oscillates between -10V and +10V, while at 50% amplitude, it oscillates between -5V and +5V.

• Range: 0–100%

Creating and Navigating Slots

LFO slots are represented on the Grid Pads, where each row corresponds to a track and each column represents an LFO Slot. Empty slots are unlit, while slots with content are illuminated in yellow. The active slot for each track is highlighted in white.

To create a slot, press an empty (unlit) Grid Pad. The settings for that slot will appear at the top of the display. Any modifications made to a Slot are saved automatically.

Navigating between slots in the selected track is done using the Arrow Buttons  or by pressing the corresponding Slot Pad directly. The current slot number is displayed in the bottom-right corner of the screen.

When triggering a slot in real time, the slot is synchronized with the sequencer clock and is triggered at the End of Bar End Of Bar (EOB). When a slot is queued for triggering, it will be illuminated in green.

To trigger a column of slots for all tracks, press and hold the SHIFT button  , followed by the corresponding Page Button  (    ) above the column where all slots should be triggered.

Sequencing Slots via Follow-Up Actions

Each LFO Slot can be assigned a Follow Up action , which determines the action that will occur once the slot has completed. The Follow Up action can be used to trigger another slot or jump to a specific slot.

Available follow-up actions include:

• None: The slot loops without any follow-up action.

• Prev: The previous slot in sequence is triggered.

• Next: The next slot in sequence is triggered.

• Any: A random slot is triggered.

• Other: A random slot is triggered, except the current one.

• First: The first slot in sequence is triggered.

• Last: The last slot in sequence is triggered.

• Jump: The slot jumps to a specified slot.

Additional parameters for Follow Up actions include:

• Loops: Specifies how many times the slot will loop before the follow-up action is triggered.

  • LFO slot loops have a max duration of 1 sheet (32 steps). The duration of each loop can be lower if the current track length is lower than 32 steps. To increase the duration of the current slot, the Loops parameter can be used.

• Probability: Defines the likelihood of the follow-up action occurring at the end of the slot.

For the Jump Follow Up action, the Jump To parameter specifies the target slot for the jump.

To assign a Follow Up, press and hold the desired slot to enable Parameter Lock. The Follow Up parameters will appear in the upper-right corner of the display.

The encoder above each parameter label can be used to adjust the settings  . For quick configuration, press and hold the current Slot, then press the Slot to which the jump should occur. The follow-up parameters will be automatically set to jump to the selected slot.

LFO Slot Functions

The following functions are available on the LFO Page, similar to those found on the Clip Page:

•   : Trigger all slots in a specific column.

• : Navigate to the next or previous slot on the selected track.

•   : Navigate to the next or previous slots page for the selected track.

•  : Undo/Redo the last action on the LFO page. BETA

•   Slot : Copy a specific slot to the clipboard.

•   Slot : Paste a slot from the clipboard to the selected position. Pasting over an existing slot will overwrite its content.

•   : Copy all slots from a column to the clipboard. BETA

•   : Paste all slots from the clipboard to a column, overwriting pre-existing slots. BETA
