Feedback: each line saturates inside its own loop, so pushing FEEDBACK past 1.00 (red thumb) self-oscillates with no input. N sets active lines per bank (up to penta); SER chains them, PAR sums them. Cross-feedback + DAMAGE escalate the whole network.
Bitstream (cyan): XOR Plane/Rate flips a chosen bit — high planes give inversion clicks, low planes give hiss. Bit-Drop removes bits from a per-channel FIFO so the sample-frame walks against the bit-frame (true removal, re-syncs instead of starving). SPLIT corrupts L/R independently for width; LINKED matches them for mono-safe glitch. Bit Mix blends against the clean feedback output.
