Issue with (matrix~) and sub patches

Hey everyone,

If you saw my earlier post about having patch-bay type arrangement, I have now got that working with thanks to Luke Hall, Wetterberg, My old college tutor Tim and my old man! What a mission!

Now this has brought up an issue that was actually the root of the problem all along.

When signal goes out of the matrix and back into it again if it has a direct through, in the case of a delay unit where you mix the dry and wet sound, it appears to short the matrix unit out (virtually of course).

Is there a way around this?

Here is an example of where this happens

If you connect any of the three example effects to the matrix the uni shorts, whereas if for instance you were to put (tapin~)(tapout~) objects in the dry signal line in any of the effects and then connect it up the system works.

I am sure this is not how it is meant to be, or if it is, there must be a better object to use then (tapin~)(tapout~)

Any help or guidance is much appreciated

Cheers

Ben
