Why not just use an LFO with delay, and an envelope to vary the vibrato speed? An LFO raises AND lowers the pitch during vibrato. But you can set up your MSEG to only raise and return the pitch to normal...more like an actual player does using classical vibrato.
You can even simulate rock guitar vibrato by raising the pitch first, and then vibrato the pitch. Use your MSEG waveform to ramp the note up in the attack stage then apply the vibrato during the sustain stage. Set the attack stage slow so only longer notes increase in pitch.
Here is an example of what the basic string vibrato sound is like:

Here are the oscillator settings I used:
Comb 1: Split Comb|Noise, Prefill 61.50, Damp 37.00, Feedback 36.00, Tone 56.00, Distort 64.50, Keyscale 100.
Envelope 1: 8sX|quadric, A 41.06, D 28.56, S 60.50, R 35.50, Vel 30.00
MSEG Vibrato Waveform
In the MSEG Tab:
* Draw the MSEG3 waveform in the screenshot.
* Set the loop start and end by right clicking on the 2nd and 4th points of the waveform.
* Set the Attack rate all the way down (counterclockwise) to delay the start of the loop portion of the MSEG. You will use the ModWheel to adjust the actual Attack rate for what you are playing.
* Adjust (increase) the Loop knob to set the vibrato rate once it's mapped (see the next section below). About 1.50 is good. The loop will continue to apply the vibrato as long as you hold the key down.
* Adjust (increase) the Release rate to allow the envelope to finish when you release the note. About 2.80 in this example.
Mapping MSEG Vibrato
In the First position on Matrix Tab:
* Map the Mod knob to ModWhl (Right click on the Mod knob, and select ModWhl)
* Set the Mod knob to 100
* Leave the Via knob unmapped
* Map Target to MSEG3: Attack
In the Second position on the Matrix Tab:
* Map the Mod knob to MSEG3
* Set the Mod to about 18.00
* Leave the Via knob unmapped
* Map Target to Comb1: Detune.
Setting the Vibrato Attack and Rate
With the ModWheel turned down to the lowest part of the range, play a note and watch the MSEG window. The attack will be very slow and will not reach the vibrato section for a long time. This setting will allow you to play without any vibrato.
Move the ModWheel all the way up. This will set the vibrato to play immediately for every note.
Now play a note and move the ModWheel about midway. This sets the attack so the vibrato will ramp up after a short pause. Use the ModWheel to adjust the vibrato attack to the song tempo and note length.
For example, set the attack time a little longer, and you will only get vibrato for the longest notes. Set it a little shorter, and you will get no vibrato on the shortest notes, slight vibrato on the medium length notes, and more vibrato on the longest notes.
To adjust the vibrato rate:
Go to your MSEG waveform. Play and hold a note. When the vibrato starts, adjust the vibrato rate using the Loop knob.
Enjoy,
