it's a loop - a circular stream of audio - that feeds back into itself. This is easy to set up in Live on one of the two effect channels (session view). Just slap a ping pong delay over "effect channel 1" and then send from "effect channel 1" to - "effect channel 1". That's it!

Be careful not to feed back too loud audio because then the loop will increase in volume until the sound just crackles down to pieces and the plastic parts of your computer starts melting and attacking humans in an extremely vicious manners.

....ooops, I must have lost it somerwhere... anyway, yuo get the picture ;-)
