Ok i tried asking this a while ago but the thread kind of went in its own direction.

I know ho i could send a track to a particular output. but how could i bring that loop back into tracktion and have it show up as a track that could be mixed in with everything else. thanks.

Matt.

guess you would need a multi input/output card. - send out to say 'out1' & then have a 2nd track receiving 'out1' as an input. - if that soundcard out is wired into a mixer/hardware effect - it should then record back into tracktion with the effect in place, e.g. send it out to a hardware compressor, or a bus on a desk with a certain amount of reverb applied. I'm not the best person to anser this though, as I don't really bugger about with hardware - but i've seen others do it, & have done similar stuff with my pulsar, utilising it's dsp effects, just to get an idea of how that kind of routing works - there would possibly be latency & stuff from outboard effects though?

did i actually make a viable attempt at answering the question u were asking - or was I barking up the wrong tree?

Yeah sorry i always have a hard time explaining this. I dont want to record an external effect. i want to have the effect going in real time so i can mess with the knobs as its playing.
I guess i need to to know how to makeone of tracktions inputs get played though the default audio output.
