Patchwork - virtual patchbay for plugins
"The virtual patchbay for audio plugins" - Blue Cat's PatchWork is a universal plugins patchbay and multi FX that can host up to 64 VST, VST3, Audio Unit or built-in plugins into any Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) in a single instance, with both serial and parallel routing options.
Thanks to the Patchwork it is possible to chain effects in series or create up to 8 parallel chains that can be activated independently - create your favorite effects or instruments configurations within the plugin, without the need for multiple busses.
Despite the name, you can forget about wires or cables: configuring plugins routing is as simple as adding or removing a row or a column in the rack's matrix. All plug-ins can also communicate with each other or with the host application using the virtual MIDI ports offered by the plug-in.
For each plug-in slot, latency compensation, presets management, undo/redo integration, audio i/o selection and individual plug-in bypass are included for optimal operation. The plug-in also stores the position of the window for each plug-in so that the layout is restored with your session or saved with presets.
