LFO behaviour

[Hungry_Man]

Hello, I often assign LFOs to Pan and tilt to get smooth wave like movement.

However often i find the movement it produces is a bit glitchy, eg:

set to sine: Instead of full range movement with a easy in / out at the extent of the set range, it moves slowly in one direction, then jerks back quickly to reset

set to 8 bar sync: quite a small range of movement, with long rests either side of the movement.

I have tried adjusting the min and max values and depth but it does not affect the gaps in movement.

I’ve also noticed that sometimes the LFO stops producing its effect, evenwwhen it is enabled and no other LFOs are enabled. Sometimes switching it on and off manually gets it working but not always.

Hey @Hungry_Man,

Thanks for sharing the video. It’s hard to say anything based on that, could you please share a fixture patch + minimal Live Set that demonstrates the issue, along with specific instructions to reproduce each issue separately? If you look at the Monitor, how do the pan/tilt DMX values look like in these situations?
