Fast LFO

List of Synthesizers with fast LFOs (so to speak MG)

FASTEST LFOs / MODULATION GENERATORS

• Korg Prophecy has four 40hz LFOs.. same as the Korg Z1

• EDP Wasp has quite fast LFOs, too

• Yamaha CS series.. excl. cs01

@ 50hz CS15,CS30, CS40m, CS80 etc. - all Yamaha FM Synthesizers (fixed freq. OPs moding other OPs) or the normal LFOs of any FM synth from yamaha - goes up to about <50Hz

• Moog Voyager (50hz again) and of course theee LFO machine:

Minimoog, ems synthi A /AKS /VCS3 (500hz) - the "LFO" is similar to OSC3,

• so the ARP 2600 counts in ,too
• and other gear like steiner parker synthacon etc. that use the 3 VCO, 3rd is mod for VCO1+2-concept from the 70ies. (OSC speed)

• MFB synth I+II,synth lite + lite II + poly lite .. about 50-60hz. the synth II has VCO mod/fm anyway,so it is very fast mod lfo/vco.. but the envs are the slowest I ever had..

• possibly the "Oberheim" Viscount OB12, but do not ever think of... ;)

• Roland Jupiter series (4+6 at 80-100hz, ju8 at 64hz) and Roland Promars - 80hz-100hz

and juno1/2 + mks50 also works at about 40-50hz (apprx./estimated) but the speed resolution is steppy..

• Waldorf Q series incl microQ (2600Hz)

Waldorf Microwave XT / Xtk and Microwave 2 (100Hz)

• DSI Evolver & Poly Evolver

• Korg Microkorg / MS2000 (ca.40Hz)

Korg Electribe SX und MX..

• Novation Supernova / Nova I + II

• Doepfer MS404 (hi range! 5khz)

• Vermona Perfourmer (app.75hz)

• Clavia Nord Modular + G2 (ca 380hz o . OSC)

• Alesis Fusion Synth (app. 200hz)

• and most modular systems - since you can use an oscillator as LFO.. but some systems have LFO Modules with high speed such as the TMSS (theiss) or my "HelLFO" I am using in my moog (quad DIY LFO) ;)

and the SemtexI should say SCI Sixtrak ,too.. but it's range is digitally "reduced" (for its low number of steps/resolution per parameter)by looping the envelopes, you can built a very fast LFO, such as FM7 or the Andromeda (the a6 LFOs are very slow, but the env's aren't)
