1. First steps in Reaktor Core - Native Instruments

As you can see, the clock input of the macro is connected to the internal Read
module. The default connection for this input is not to a zero constant, but
the audio clock, and that’s what you would want in most cases. The module
connected between the upper input and the write module will be explained
later, for now just ignore it.
So far, there’s nothing special about this macro, except that it seems to implement
the Z^-1 structure we have discussed earlier. So how does the Reaktor
Core engine know that this structure is meant to resolve feedback loops?
Obviously, the engine can know that it can resolve feedback loops, but how
does it know that it’s intended to?
This is controlled by the Solid setting in the macro properties:
The Solid property tells the Reaktor Core engine whether the macro is to be
considered as a solid built-in module for the purposes of feedback resolution
or whether it is to be considered transparent. In 99% of the cases, you would
want to keep this property on. That’s because you typically don’t want implicit
feedback resolution to happen inside your macros.
One reason for that is that the resolution happening inside a macro won’t be
visible unless you go into the macro, so that some of the implicit feedback
