How do you control your lfo's start & end position ? ok, let's say you have a 16 bars lead that has an lfo and you want it to start from the beginning every time you go through a break, how do you tweak it in order to make it totally controllable by you?

hi and ola Nychro 
you can automate de rate of the Lfo By sync tempo for example by 1/1 to 1/16 or disabling the sync and automate by your ears . just find the better way for you ...
Cheers e dá-lhe com alma!

it depends on your synth.
If I'm understanding your question correctly, what you really want is a Retrigger option.
What that means (assuming retrigger is on) is that every time a MIDI note starts, the LFO begins at its initial value.
Say you have a 8 bar MIDI note, but your LFO is set to 16 bars.
If you have retrigger on, and you have two 8 bar MIDI notes next to each other, the LFO will start at 0 as the first MIDI note begins, then when it hits the second MIDI note it will retrigger back to 0
If you had retrigger off, the LFO would not re-start to 0 when it hits the second MIDI note.

I think i wrote it the right way (:
Anyhow, the synth i'm talking about is predator, and yeah there is somethin like the retrigger option there, the "lfo speed" and while you move that option, below there's a description saying what kind of values i am choosing
Thank you

but that's the LFO speed, which is an entirely different parameter than controlling where and how the LFO starts in relation to a MIDI note.
LFO speed = how fast the LFO moves whatever you're linking it to....as in if you put it to the cutoff and you make the LFO speed faster it wobbles, blah bah
I don't have much experience with predator, but I'm looking at a google image pic of it and it has...
Waveform, Speed, Sync, and Mode...
waveform is sine, triangle, square etc
speed is...self explanatory
sync means a toggle between free running in hertz values or sync'd to your hosts Tempo so that it will be 8 bar 4 bar 2 bar 1 bar 1/16 1/32 etc
Mode I'm not too sure about, the image says 'poly' on the example I'm looking at...might possibly be where retrigger is if it exists in predator...but I don't see a retrigger option right on the synth itself.

Yes i know the lfo speed thing is different from the retriggering option, but, the way i have it now is doing the thing i want it to do, i mean, that lfo speed controls my lead's cutoff, wich means that when i load my project the synth restarts, and if i want to export the track i just have to re-load my project so the cutoff value is the way i want it to
But thank you will
