If I remove a synth application in Jack, then what happens to the effect applications in the path? Does they receive silent input or break up? The silent input would be better because then I could switch the synth application with a need to remake the whole system.

Hello. I was reading Ableton Live tutorials at "www.creativesynth.com" and found the following: One important point about Rewire hosting - that is shutdown order. If you try to shut down Live while Reason is running, you will get a warning that looks something like this: [ the program cannot quit ] Don't panic, this is common with all Rewire hosting environments - if you would quit Live, Reason would have no place to send its audio. Therefore, you have to jump to Reason, quit the program (saving any changes you might have made), return to Live and shutdown. A bit of a hassle, but well worth the effort. That is another good reason to have the application manager in the Patchbay --- but it help only if one want to quit. It won't help if one wants keep the other applications up and running. If I remove a synth application in Jack, then what happens to the effect applications in the path? Does they receive silent input or break up? The silent input would be better because then I could switch the synth application with a need to remake the whole system.
