Bug? AX8-Edit Chorus/Flanger Rate Minimum Value

Testing in FW 7.01, AX8-Edit 1.8.1 / MacOS Sierra.

At minimum Rate value on the hardware, it will display "LFO1 SYNC" indicating that the Rate parameter is now syncing with whatever LFO1 set at. In AX8-Edit, it instead displays the actual current value of LFO1 (default is 1.000 Hz), with no UI indication that it is now syncing with LFO1. This can be confusing for users who are unaware that the lowest setting of the Rate will trigger a sync with LFO1.

The Tremolo/Panner and Phaser Blocks do display "LFO1 SYNC" at the lowest Rate value in AX8-Edit, as expected.

Additionally, when adjusting LFO1, the Chorus and Flanger Rate will not follow even if the user set the Rate to the lowest value; they instead retain whatever the previous value of LFO1 was. It's operating as a one-time sync with a snapshot value of LFO1.


Edit: added Phaser mention.
