[PD] avoiding quantisation on lookuptables when using sine lfo

Hi All,

I was wondering how people are dealing with avoiding quantisation on sine(or
any) LUTs
at very low frequencies (typically under 1hz). Is it better to switch to an
algo or make 2 tables or can you interpolate and smooth the curves?

I mean you can get a nice effect with the stepping but its obviously not
ideal.
