Connector

Audio and MIDI Streaming Plug-in

Have you ever dreamt to overcome the limitations of your favorite DAW and draw virtual audio and MIDI cables between any places that accept plugins?

Have you ever been frustrated not to be able to create feedback loops with plugins?

What about connecting multiple applications together, on different computers?

The wait is over! Blue Cat's Connector lets you do all of this, and more! It can stream audio and MIDI data in real time, between any locations that accepts plug-ins: one or several applications, on one or several machines connected to a network.

With precise buffering control, you can achieve the lowest possible latencies: down to 0 samples, when used in a single application. Its built-in resampling and drift compensation algorithms let you create seamless connections between locations with different sample rates and unsynchronized master clocks: it just works!

Main Features:

• Universal connection plugin available in VST, VST3, AAX or Audio Unit format.

• Create your own audio/MIDI routings inside your DAW (feedback loops allowed).

• Create connections between any audio software on multiple computers.

• Minimal latency, with full control over buffering.

• Supports multiple sampling rates on a single connection (built-in resampling).

• Built-in drift compensation.

• Send and receive back audio/MIDI with a single instance.
