This demo shows how the STE.16 dual LFO can be pressed into use as a dual digital lo-fi oscillator, with some outstanding results. This little beauty is getting overlooked in my opinion, boasting a stellar array of features as an LFO...and can also be employed as a damn decent DUAL vco. The onboard modulation between the two oscillators yields some really cool results.

Patch Details
1 - Both outputs of STE.16 LFO sent into channels A & B of the WMD Multimode VCA
2 - Two Tiptop z4000 ADSRs were triggered in slightly varied rhythms, and used to envelope the two MMVCA channels
3 - Some modulation was applied to the z4000s to add some variety
4 - A z8000 sequencer was used to control the frequency of both the STE.16 LFOs, and randomly reset, following a wonky gate sequence provided by the Korg SQ1
5 - The two LFOs were set to HI (audio) range, and tuned an octave apart
6 - During recording the various waveforms of both LFOs were manually tweaked, as were the internal modulation settings & amount (to start with FM was used, and towards the end AM was used)
7 - During the final part of the recording the Speed (pitch) of each LFO was manually tweaked.
