Use in Chiptune

By further specifying LFO waveform, speed/rate, hold and LFO re-sync/re-trigger, various arpeggios can be accomplished, including the "fake chords" popularized by early 8-bit computer and video game music (aka the "chiptune" genre).

In chiptune music, "fake chords" are a technique used to create the illusion of chords on a monophonic sound chip, such as those found in early video game consoles and home computers. These chips could only play one note at a time, but composers would use arpeggios, fast note progressions, and other tricks to give the impression of multiple notes being played together as a chord. This allowed chiptune composers to create more complex and harmonically rich musical pieces within the limitations of the hardware.

A quantized pitch LFO allows for the quintessential "fake" chords as used by chiptunes.
