LFO's To PWM

Anyone using this connection w/ modular? I am trying out different insertions and can hear some great movements, but it cycles into silence. I would like to use my modulation similar to an autopan, in the way it modulates,i.e., no audio dropout, but more like a shimmering effect in slow motion.
I know I'm green, but I spend hours with this stuff, and when I'm stumped I feel like speaking to my fellow Flexorians 4 help.

TIA, ( Thanks In Advance )

If you set too much modulation amount, PWM will sometimes generate a DC wave instead of proper PWM - simple visual:

__|----|___|--
could become
____|_________|_____

So, as a solution, set less modulation amount.

As you may have noticed, Flexor's maximum modulation amounts are pretty extreme...

Hope this helps!

You were exactly right, now I have a great patch which also moves around. I now need to change the waveforms that are being modulated, I'm hoping that quad shaper, with additional LFO's will do this. i.e. each modulation insert jack would be from a different LFO. This is such a great little playground. at0m, do you ever tire of it's possibilities? Thanks for answering my post and explainig what took place. As I have now moved on to another experiment within the same window/shell.
