Hi gang - had a lot of fun with my MnM tonight when paired with a Syntakt. They’re more than the sum of their parts together.
Unfortunately I somehow managed to continually overload the MnM delays to the point where I have to double stop the sequencer to stop the feedback overload.
I seem to recall a tip in the past to safeguard against this - is it just never pushing feedback higher than 63?
Thanks in advance!

Pretty much yes, for any feedback delay. Find the point where it feeds back, then dial back a touch.
Or dont.
Depends how much you value your ears/speakers.
Ahem. Forgive my lack of effort searching prior to posting:
From tarekith’s class tips n’ tricks page:
Safe delay feedback without blowing your speakers up:
This is much more ‘controllable’ than just tweaking the feedback parameter:
In stereo delay mode (any value above 63 on delay parameter), set feedback at setting around 63 or slightly above. Now tweak the Width parameter between 63 and 127.
I’m not familiar with MnM, but on ST this gets affected by the LPF / HPF on the delay as well. If you narrow the filter ‘pass’ width on ST, you can set feedback higher without overloading it (on Syntakt the normal limit is 100, but with a narrow filter you can push beyond 100 safely).
If my comment is not applicable to MnM at all, let me know
