"LFO" would probably be clear enough.  All kinds of things in this 
sphere have an LFO control.

Haven't looked at it in ages.  I'll try to weigh in.

User 1, User 2, etc. seems clear enough to me.  It's impossible to be 
immediately intuitive to everybody, no matter how verbose your 
descriptions, and stuff that's verbose in English tends to explode 
horizontally in other languages.  It's probably a pretty good rule of 
thumb to expect a complex English phrase to be at least half again as 
long in translation, and often longer than that.

Haven't looked at this, but Rosegarden generally despises spin boxes and 
prefers to use combo boxes populated with numbers instead.  They're MUCH 
faster to use.  I used to think this was arbitrary and silly, but I saw 
the wisdom behind it and got to where I despise spin boxes too.  They suck.

Haven't looked in so long I have utterly no idea what the context is 
here though.  I can't picture it at all.

No time.
