- [Instructor] So low frequency oscillators are not intended to be heard. Instead, they're used to modulate parameters in real-time and are at the heart to creating movement in synth sounds. With Serum, they can be used to control almost any parameter. So let's take a look at Serum's LFOs. Now, Serum has eight LFOs, the four that we see here and another four hidden LFOs that appear one at a time on the right after the first four LFOs are in use. Now, we can assign and adjust LFOs in the same manner that we did with Envelopes. Let's start by re-initializing Serum. Let's turn the Filter on, and I'm going to pull the Cutoff back. And let's assign LFO 1 to modulate the Cutoff by clicking on its tab and drag and dropping it on the Cutoff frequency parameter. Now once I let go of the mouse, I know it's assigned because I see the mini blue dial here in the upper left-hand corner of the Cutoff parameter. And I also see this white and blue halo around the outside edge of the parameter to…
