Tutorial on "no-input mixing" in a DAW (Logic Pro X, in this case) for wild feedback-based sound design.
With a little knowledge of digital signal flow, we can easily set up an aux track in our DAW as a feedback loop--sending the track back into itself. Once we start adding effects, we can achieve new and unexpected sounds. This technique could be a way to generate some new sonic material, add some interest to a drum loop, or even generate vast, evolving soundscapes.
