either.

before the quadra. for example, the quadra used to be connected to
component X and was doing reverb on it. i'll disconnect it because now
i want to connect it to ... oh, hang on, i haven't started that
application yet ... starts jMax ... wait, what happened to the audio?

i don't see how it can be an error in the application. the problem is
not that the application doesn't know how to produce output without an
input connection. the problem is that the application is never
executed. if it was executed, we'd get output (silence). but its not
executed because nothing ever queues a buffer to its input.
thats why you need an engine. i think.
