LFO Spread Mode
Defines how initial phase spread (see parameter “Spread”) is applied across channels. For example, with the spread mode set to “Front-Rear”, all front channels start playing with a phase equal to 0, and all rear channels start playing with a phase equal to “Spread”. If present (and processed), the LFE channel is always synchronized with the Front Left channel.
Values:
- Left-Right: Front and rear left channels start with an offset of 0, front and rear right channels start with an offset of “Spread”. If present, the center channel starts with an offset of “Spread”/2.
- Front-Rear: Front and center channels start with an offset of 0, and rear channels start with an offset of “Spread”.
- Circular: This mode applies a spreading dipole between the left and right channels on 1.x, 2.x and 3.x configurations, and between the front left and rear right channel on 4.x and 5.x configurations. For example, a 3.0 signal would start with the following phases: L=0, C=”Spread”/2, R=”Spread”. A 5.0 signal would start with the following phases: FL=0, C=”Spread”/4, FR=”Spread”/2, RL=”Spread”/2, RR=”Spread”.
- Random: Each channel starts with a random phase uniformly distributed between 0 and “Spread”.
Note: Although this parameter can be changed at run-time via RTPC, it has no effect when it is set after the instance of this effect has started playing.
Default value: Left-Right
