Turning off the BPM sync within LFO programs - possible?

Post by peasman »

Hi.

I've just upgraded from the KP2 to the KP3+ and I'm trying to recreate some of the sounds I've been using live with the KP2.

I'm wanting to use the slicer program on the KP3+ (probs LF22, but maybe LF23,24, or 25) as a freetime performance effect, but they're all BPM synced. Is there a way of turning this off so they're not BPM synced anymore?

Thanks,

No but you can use BPM as extra control over LFOs.
Shift an BPM will turn it faster. It can be useful for super fast and slow LFO s too ,which may or may not be useful to you (BPM 20-300).
Otherwise it's grid locked,but with triplets too.I found slicers to work ok for slow downs etc even with tempo sync.You could double tempo for finer control.

Cheers for reply. Sounds fine bpm matched anyway, I just like the randomness sometimes!

I know what you mean.I wish delays were unsynced more often on KP3 (like Smooth Delay).I recommend LFOs at 300 BPM sometimes though.
