Velocity Device > Lfo Reset, Why?

In the new demo song (amazing use of a single sine wave by the way, well worth checking out), several tracks have a velocity device linked to an LFO reset. It doesn’t seem to be used very often and I can’t see exactly what it’s doing.

Does it just reset the LFO if any volume change is entered? Is there any advantage to this method over just entering the pattern effect command to reset the LFO? Am I missing a really useful technique?

Thanks in advance for your replies :)

hi planetm!

the velocity device just retriggers the lfo, so it begins at the start position again.
you can also use the pattern effect, i think (ive never used this) if the lfo theoretical starts at allways the same point, then this is much faster instead of typing a pattern command for each single note. im not sure, but i`ve reading that the pattern command can set the startpoint of the lfo,
so if you need different startpoints this might be the better option :)

In short: this simply restarts the LFO on every note.

I can make use of that, especially now we can route between tracks! Thanks kasmo and taktik.
