Modulating LFO rate (straight+triplets combined)

[KTlin]

Hi

I thought this would be a very easy task, but it seems it's not easy at all.

So, I want to modulate the rate (speed) of an LFO (which modulates a filter for example) like this: for 1 bar I want it to run at 1/4 triplets, for 1 bar at 1/4 straight, for 1 bar at 1/8 triplets, for half bar at 1/16 straight, for half bar at 1/32 straight. But because the LFO's rate has two parameters (length and type) when in sync mode, modulating the rate, like in the example above, becomes a very tedious process: I should create two more LFOs. One to modulate the length (from 1/4 to 1/32) and one to modulate the type (Straight-Triplets) and set these two LFOs to step sequencer mode and so on. Very cumbersome.

It would have been way more useful if the LFO's rate had only one parameter containing all the types like: 1/4straight, 1/4 triplets, 1/4 dotted, 1/8 s, 1/8 t, 1/8 d, and so on. This is the standard way. It's not clear to me why Melda implemented the length and type parameters separately.

Anyone knows a better method for modulating the LFO's rate?

cheers

Yes, use a multiparameter and have it learn both the rate and type. Set the MP to banks mode then in each bank set your parameters accordingly, eg 1/8 triplet etc.
Now modulate the multiparameter with an LFO. Set it to step sequencer mode and set the quantize to the same number as the number of banks in your MP.

Thanks jmg8 !
