Post by graphixsounds » Sat Sep 27, 2014 3:54 pm

the red warning triangle means that a routing is set up that can't be calculated, basically an infinite loop.

and indeed, the warning means it has now effect on the sound.

sure you can, you just have to be careful with your routing.

if you have several xlfo's all modulating each other that's fine as long as it doesn't create a loop.

for example, with modulating frequencies:

lfo 1 can modulate lfo 2, and lfo 2 can modulate lfo 3, but then connect lfo 3 to lfo 1 and you broke it.
