A low frequency oscillator, or LFO, is a signal generator used by synth players to add depth

or motion to a given synth tone. LFOs can easily modulate a given sound, but should

not be confused with UFOs, which are more about modulate a given sound but should not be confused with

UFOs which are more about modulating a given brain.

Welcome to Strong Songs, a Podcast About Music. I'm your host Kirk Hamilton and I'm so glad that you join me to talk about music made with LFOs, music made on UFOs, music made by LFOs aboard UFOs and by UFOs made out of LFOs. You are listening to a 100% independent podcast created by me for all of you with no one in between.

It's a pretty cool thing and if you would like to be a part of it,

Thanks so much to everyone who does. We are nearing the end of

season six which means it's time to open up the listener mailbag and answer a

bunch of your most interesting musical questions. On this episode we've got

questions about Saxon flute techniques,

synth portamentos, solo transcribing, video game guitar chords,

cover song arrangements, and more. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, So here we are just me you and this mailbag overflowing with listener questions, all of which I would love

to answer.

We're going to dive right in, but before we do, just a reminder that you can send questions

for future Q&A episodes to listeners at strong songs podcast.com.

I get more questions than I can answer, but I appreciate and read every single one that

I get.

I also think I might do two mailbag episodes in season 7 instead of just the one which

should allow me to answer a few more questions next season.

Anyway, listeners at StrongSongs Podcast.com. That's where to send emails.
