Frequently Asked Questions
It's a basic, stepped random – not a true stochastic generator. Expect a more predictable, lo-fi randomness, suitable for simple rhythmic variations.
Like most vintage-style analog modules, there can be slight drift over time and temperature changes, but it's generally stable for most applications.
No, the A-146 LFO II is a free-running oscillator; it doesn’t have a clock input for external synchronization.
