how do you get into self oscillation?

I heard that you can quickly blow up your tweeters when getting a synth into self oscilliation, I was just wondering how do you do this - or rather, how can you avoid it? |

One way is to buy the anti-self-oscilliation VST pluggin from Native Instruments.
:cool: |

Don't press the red button and everything should be fine. |

don't go extreme with the resonance |

Selfoscillation can occur if resonance is at an extremely high setting. In that case the filter itself may become an oscillator, once activated producing a continous sine wave at cutoff frequency.
In software there's nothing really to worry about this. Those screaming res. sounds are just below that setting.
To effectively kill your speakers there are only a few ways both including unsuitable lot's of power. That is if you feed them with direct current (in respect to it frequency range as in bass to a tweeter) or to feed continuous sines with too high amplitudes.
Both should be prevented by your sound card / setup / the box itself.
As long as there is one limiting element in the chain after the feedback or self oscillation takes place you'll have to wait quite a time before the coils are fried... |

Selfoscillation sounds like it could be a good thing ... any tips on a good VSTi to do this with. Like you said its nearly impossible to get a full whoosh on a Pro53 for example |
