Hi,

I seem to be getting a strange echo effect occasionally when I activate any given plugin (jamstix, amplitube etc). Some plugins do this more than others, and amplitube does it the whole time. The echo then stays after I remove the plugin and I have to reboot tracktion.

The echo itself sounds just like a slapback plugin with a long repeat - very clean, no sputtering, doesn't sound like audio corruption, it's just I didn't put the effect in there!

Anyone else get this?

sounds like latency

not if it persists after the plugin has been removed it doesn't.

My guess is that there is a physical feedback loop between an audio output and an audio input. Either a misconfigured mixing console/ wiring, or, if the audio device features some kind of virtual patchbay, an incorrect setting there.

this is what it turned out to be - the "end-to-end" function feeds back if I'm using my soundcard's virtual mixer as the input/output rather than the analog ins/outs themselves. Both are useful in their own way however.
