Hi, I've built a classic stereo delay using [delwrite~] and [vd~], and L/R crossed feedback. This works!

Now, I want to insert an effect into the feedback path. (many possibilities here: add some bitcrush, so each repeat gradually becomes more distorted.... or a [hilbert~] type pitch shift, which might create something like Shepard tones, etc).

This works when everything is within a single patch or abstraction.

However, when I try to allow the effect to be external to the abstraction (like a SEND/RETURN insert on a mixer), when I try to complete the circuit, I get "DSP loop detected".

The two circuits are essentially IDENTICAL!

This seems like a bug to me. Any ideas?

I've attached pix of both the high-level schematic, along with a demo patch. (I can upload the actual patch if that would be helpful).

Thanks!

BH
