Hi

Can anyone please help by telling me how to make a sample and hold sound on the filter frequency in Europa (Reason 10.1)

I normally use Antidote as one of the drop down LFO options is S/H but unsure how to do this in Europa

Cheers

Go to the LFO, select a random curve, than choose this LFO as modulation source in the filter.

An alternative way is to use pulsar as an LFO to the CV input of Europa.

in the mod matrix you will then route cv1 in to filter frequency

Dang, they beat me to it. You can also use the LFO outputs from any reason synth with an LFO output, or even do pseudo-S&H by using a Matrix with randomly selected values. Of course that would be a repeating sequence but sometimes that’s kind of cool

SAMPLERS: Akai MPC 2000, E-mu SP1200, E-Mu e5000Ultra, Ensoniq EPS 16+, Akai S950, Maschine

SYNTHS: Mostly classic Polysynths and more modern Monosynths. All are mostly food for my samplers!

What shape LFO do you use if using an external LFO - just a random wave. Can the osc/engine be any shape or do certain shapes sound better with S/H?

I’m trying to get Underworld - Rez type sound

Random. You’ll see it as a square-wave type with values all over the place if you’re using pulsar.
