"""
04-building-lfo.py - Audio control of parameters.
One of the most important thing with computer music is the
trajectories taken by parameters over time. This is what
gives life to the synthesized sound.
One way to create moving values is by connecting a low
frequency oscillator to an object's attribute. This script
shows that process.
Other possibilities that will be covered later use random
class objects or feature extraction from an audio signal.
