Allow feedback in routing

can you tell me more about this, when do you use this?

[whiteaxxxe]

when I put up some cross-feedback send/returns with a chorus, a delay and a flanger ... its dangerous.

if you experiment with such things, set the maximum output level to +6db or so, your equipment and your ears will thank you for that.

where can i set this? cheers

[whiteaxxxe]

in preferences -> audio -> [automatically mute any track] -> put in a value

You need it if Track One sends MIDI to Track Two, and Track Two then returns audio to Track One.

Technically this is a feedback, but as long as Track One does not generate new MIDI from the audio returned by Track Two, I cannot see that there is any danger. Still, you need to enable feedback in routing to set this up.

I use it for the so-called "Lanois Effect" - reverb to pitch shifter, back into reverb.

I have a feedback loop on my guitar pedal board, and I'm working on going to all software, so I use feedback routing for that among other things. You can get away from automute by putting a limiter or other distortion device on one or both tracks. It has to have a real, hard limit, though.
