Hello, is there a formula that gives me the Hz value corresponding to the LPC value? What does LPC mean anyways, and why isn’t the LFO operating with Hz?
cheers, c.

LPC - Lines Per Cycle.
It’s operating in lines-per-cycle so it syncs with your tempo, which is measured in beats per minute.
So – 64 lines per cycle (LPC) @ e.g. 4 lines per beat (LPB) and 120 beats per minute (BPM):
120 beats per minute / 60 = 2 beats per second = 2*4 lines per second = 8 lines per second
64 lines per cycle / 8 lines per second = 8 seconds per cycle
Equation:
Seconds per Cycle = LPC / ((BPM / 60) * LPB)
.’. Cycles per Second = Hz = BPM / 60 * LPB / LPC
