Hey, simple question.
Setting the LFO sync to KB results in the LFO being triggered by the keyboard; however, is there anyway on the voyager (electric blue) to specify which part of the waveform gets triggered? When its source is the triangle, when set to KB the triangle gets triggered at the crest - I'd like to be able to trigger it at the bottom of the wave instead. I have looked through the manual and it doesn't appear that this can be done, but of course I might be missing something....

Thanks!

I don't think you can. If you had a modular synthesizer you probably could though!

VX-351/CP-251 could invert the LFO, which would give a rising triangle. It would depend on where you wanted to patch it though as it would be in the CV realm.

Or use an envelope with an attack phase. Here it would be single-shot on a keyboard press -- would this work?

Usually the envelope is the way to go, for sure. But I'm trying a thing with a swell on the attack, but following it with a repeated LF "wobble" whose rate can then be controlled from the touchpad. I can achieve a similar effect using the envelope (and the LFO), but the waveform of the LFO has a particular sound to it which I would like on the attack... obviously no big deal, just a quibble. But wondering if I was missing something...
