Bypassing feedback filter in massive?

Im sorry if something is lost in translation; talking about technical stuff in another language is always kind of difficult. i might sound like a complete tosser, but ill take the chance..

right..

My question is very simple; i've made a synth stab, but its lacking the low end.
so i choose a sine-wave as the 3rd osc and bypass it, so it wont get affected by verbs etc. but since i like to fatten up the sound by adding a slight amount of feedback, a problem appears: the 'bypassed' low end gets distorted. i've been searching for a while now, but with no luck. seems as if im the only one with this problem...
am i missing something obvious? (propably :D)

thx in advance

Could you not just have a separate instance of the synth running just the 3rd oscillator and turn off the 'feedback'? Just copy the synth settings and melody. Hope this makes sense :)

Or maybe try changing the routing settings on the routing tab? You can change the bypass to make it pre of post effects, also change the routing of the feedback.

Why don't you just EQ out the bottom end and have a seperate synth running with a pure sine? Typically I roll off my sine sub around 80hz and roll off the bottom of the mid bass around 90-100hz depending on the sound. You'll also leave a lovely little EQ gap between 80-90hz for your kick to sit in.
