No output wanted

[lvr]

Hello, I would like that a track has no output, because it is another track has this one as input. There is no way to select a "No output" as output, while keeping the track playing.

As a workaround, I set the output to a virtual output with no physical output behind. This does the trick, but it is not the nicer possible

The concept of "no input" should be implemented, to have an empty input mixer stage in that case. It's just a matter of presentation. Make things more clear...

In fact, if the patch doesn't contain any "input module" it is fully equivalent to "no input".

[lvr]

And what about the "No output" ?

[senso]

It's only a matter of presentation.
I'm not shure it's fundamental?

[lvr]

I think it is more fundamental that the no input

For no input, the patches just don't need to have any audio input module, while for no output, the idea is to have the patches producing sound (=> they have audio output modules), but to have the tracks not directly routed to any output, because it will always be "treated" thru another track.

Of course, we can consider that the w/a that consists in assigning to the track a virtual output to points to no physical output is enough.

Simple,
In that case, just Mute the track.

I really like this software, but i want use only the osc funcitions, and i don't have a ASIO interface, there are any way to turn ON the engine with out a ASIO interface?

hello falkon and welcome
yes you can choose the no audio! option in the global setup/asio tab
restart Usine and you'll can use OSC module without audio

if later, you need sound anyway you can also use asio4all drivers
