Internal LFo Controller

Hey guys,
I've been wanting to get some sort of effect unit that i can internally link to other parameters of vsts. I'm using fl8 and can't seem to find anything of use apart from the peak controller. I think it would be mad to add an lfo to all sorts of different aspects of a synth but at the moment i am in a hole.
any ideas?

the way to do this is with automation clips.

1) twiddle the knob in the synth which you want to put an LFO on
2) click the button in the far top left of the synth window
3) go to 'last tweaked parameter' and then click 'create automation clip'

this tells FL that you want it to automate the last knob (or slider, or menu) that you just modified in the VST window

now you should have an automation clip running along the bottom (or top) of your project. double click that and turn on the light next to where it says 'LFO'

took me ages to figure out, enjoy!

i'm baked, the button you're looking for is the one in the top left, have a look at this picture, it'll make more sense

i am fully aware that the peak controller is an lfo, and a crapola one at that.
I appreciate the help guys cheers, I also found that in the 'edit events' window in FL there is a lfo tool which comes in very handy now that i know how to use it :D

I just find that editing an LFO inside the events window is much easier than using that thing. its probably not crap i just like the more visual aspect of using the events window. :oops:
