Once you know the workaround of tricking Isadora into thinking it's not a closed loop it's pretty easy to get around though.</p>]]></description><link>https://community.troikatronix.com/post/43811</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://community.troikatronix.com/post/43811</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Woland]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 01 Dec 2020 15:54:01 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to [ANSWERED] How to connect the output of an Envelope Generator to its own input on Mon, 30 Nov 2020 15:15:31 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="https://community.troikatronix.com/uid/387">@craigw</a></p><p>Also, adding anything that makes it not a closed loop gets around this.</p><img src="/assets/uploads/files/1606749327810-screen-shot-2020-11-30-at-4.15.18-pm.png" />]]></description><link>https://community.troikatronix.com/post/43788</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://community.troikatronix.com/post/43788</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Woland]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 30 Nov 2020 15:15:31 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to [ANSWERED] How to connect the output of an Envelope Generator to its own input on Mon, 30 Nov 2020 02:21:40 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Ok, Sounds like a good plan.</p><p>Thanks</p>]]></description><link>https://community.troikatronix.com/post/43776</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://community.troikatronix.com/post/43776</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[craigw]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 30 Nov 2020 02:21:40 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to [ANSWERED] How to connect the output of an Envelope Generator to its own input on Sun, 29 Nov 2020 23:15:21 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Like <a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="https://community.troikatronix.com/uid/205">@bonemap</a> already stated, creating a cycle patch like you currently do is not allowed in Isadora and it will cause all inputs / outputs to be deactivated.

<p>Hi, </p>
<p>I think you will find this is expected behaviour. It is because a circular routing like this is not possible in Isadora (where the output of an actor is wired through to the same actor input i.e. leads back to itself). I have hit this many, many times. You can think about placing a broadcaster and listener into the patch to overcome the limitation.</p>
<p>Best Wishes</p>
