The Low Frequency Oscillator generates a signal that cycles through a relatively slow pattern.

	A Modulation Set is a specific collection of the six domains and the envelopes contained within. Any number of Sets can be created and each instrument has its own unique Set list. The instrument’s samples can be individually assigned to any one of its Sets, allowing different samples to be affected by modulation in different ways. Multiple samples can be assigned to the same Set, so all of those samples will be affected by any changes made to that Set.
