Hi, just a quick note about weird LFO behavior when it's used for panning. I think I got the basic outset right: the main outputs are fully panned to the extremes. Nothing is modulating the LFO in any way. In the modulation matrix, I connect the LFO with positive and negative polarity to the output level 1 & 2. I have the LFO set to a triangle and the width to 50%, which I assume is a regular triangle shape (I tried all width settings btw, to exclude this as the cause of the problem). So everything is set up: I get panning of the signal, but it is always biased towards the side that's getting the positive modulation. The bias is so strong that the perceived signal never even crosses the middle of the stereo field. When I switch the positive and negative modulation (the triangle and the ball), the bias changes towards the other side. I don't get this wrong behaviour when using an oscillator triangle for panning. The LFO behaves perfectly normal for other modulation duties such as filter modulation.
