even though I can't see how you've set up the lfo that's modulating the filter, one can tell that the comb filter is not enough to cut the signal in a way that would sound like a proper wobble effect. to make things worse, it's got a not so large range, being that you've set up the cutoff position quite high and your amount is positive, meaning that it will only "navigate" in the higher frequencies of the spectrum alone, leaving behind almost the entire signal at all times.
the other lfo we can see is only adding some random movement to the oscillator that's modulating the pitch of the other one, just exciting the source a bit, adding some organic touch to the sound - a nice touch btw 
now, what exactly are you trying to achieve with this?
...if my guess is right, I think you should start by choosing another kind of filter; or, in case you like what the comb is doing to the sound, then route the first one into the second (by selecting F2 on top right corner on filter 1 module) and then selecting another filter design, like a low or high pass, and carefully choose the direction of the modulation -with another lfo - and it's amount (either positive or negative, makes all the difference in the world), perhaps even control the rate of this lfo with the mod wheel or something...
I fail to see the point of having an lfo to matrix depth 3 in there... but could be something left out from another preset, maybe?

Hey frisbeehead, the 2nd filter actually kind of worked  I will need to play around with it but I dont have time right now, thanks alot for your help I dont know why I hadnt thought about that already!
Ah the wonders of sound design.. so many endless possibilities.. really need to get stuck in and learn everything I can |

Glad I could help!
Albino is a fairly straight forward instrument when it comes to its structure, but it still offers some routing options that are easily overlocked.
For instance, there's 3 major ways that a pair of filters can work:
the first one, like in the advise I gave you here, is what's called "in series". simply put, the output of the first filter goes to the second and the output of that is then routed to the amp.
so it's like F1>F2>Amp
the second would be "in parallel":
F1>Amp + F2>Amp
Notice that there's a balance knob on the filter section that allows you to mix the two signals together, plus there's a balance (pan) knob for each filter.
And that's how we get to the "split":
F1>panned left +F2>panned right
On the oscillator section you have the option to route the signal to either of the two filters or to both of them at once. Notice that this knobs are all selectable modulation targets on your matrix:
main>main filt bal
filt1/2>filt panning
Also, you can choose to which effect you route the output of the filters... And on the FX you can decide if it feeds the next one or goes straight to the output to. This things DO matter! Cheers
