The SHM Index, 3-4-5- Poly Index, Mod Sine Index and Cam profiles are uses for this functionality Explanation: The sentence is rather tautological, which is contributing to the perceived "weirdness." I believe that it just means that these indices are uses for the functionality being referred to. The phrase "Using the" at the beginning of the sentence is redundant. |

rephrasing below Explanation: It's not my subject area at all, but I can rephrase it for you: Functionality includes using the SHM Index, 3-4-5- Poly Index, Mod Sine Index and Cam profiles. It's certainly a horrible sentence. Note that "uses" here is the plural noun, not the verb |

simplified version Explanation: Instead of "Using the SHM Index, 3-4-5- Poly Index, Mod Sine Index and Cam profiles are uses for this functionality" - I would write "The SHM Index, 3-4-5- Poly Index, Mod Sine Index and Cam profiles are used with this function" |
