Ok, i am asking about very simple task:
I wanna use the ModWheel to Modulate the Filter Cutoff and at the same time add
LFO Modulation to the Filter Cutoff, a Classic Modulation, you increase the ModWheel
you get higher Cutoff and at the same time increasingly LFO kicks in.
Now, my second Modulator on the Filter Cutoff is also busy using Env2 and thats why
i can not send LFO there. I know it should go thru MultiPlex but i can not figure it out,
i tried, it works but not as it needs to be done, the LFO kicks in Fully and i need less
then that, if i lower the Mod Amount then the Filter Cutoff does not increase to the
point where i want, the ModWheel Modulation decreases too.
Another thing is, how do i get a SineWave LFO?

Thanks

You can use the Multiplex to mix the two signals independently. Just feed one into the left input, the other into the right input. If you need one signal twice as strong, simply add another cable to the free multiplex input on the same side.

A sine LFO isn't available from the LFO section, but you can simply use one of the oscillators to create a sine. Or use a self-oscillating filter (maybe only suitable for audio rate...). Or use a Lag Generator on a triangle LFO to smooth the corners out.

I'm not sure I fully understand, but is this maybe what you're trying to do...?
Note the value of 50 (mid position) at the Multiplex input, won't work correctly otherwise.

(never mind... Urs answered as I would have, had I understood the question immediately)

I wish Env2 was hardwired to the Filter, this way we can have one extra Filter Cutoff Modulator.

Thanks Urs but...doesn't the speed of the LFO increase and decrease according to Pitch?
Which happens here with me. Is there a way of keeping constant speed, not pitch dependent?

In your posted example it sounds like the overall increase from the modwheel would be greater than the LFO. Instead of plugging them both into the left side of the multiplex I'd suggest plugging MW and LFO cables on different sides, one left and one right. The left and right gain knobs for the multiplex then are simply amplitude controls (well, they always are), and can be adjusted individually per source.

Also pitch won't affect rate if the oscillator frequency is in hertz or beats units, if that helps.

Thanks XH, Works, on 5hz and thru LAG generator is perfect Sine.

You can have an extra filter cutoff modulator(s) using a multiple

Thanks everyone, it all worked out, i basically mixed and matched all of your advices
starting from Urs above and it all worked.

...or only using Filter 2 for modulation (set to "Spread" mode).
