Blue Cat’s PatchWork

Blue Cat’s PatchWork – Universal Plug-in Patchbay and Multi-FX Processor

Blue Cat’s PatchWork is a versatile plug-in patchbay and multi-effects processor that enables you to host up to 64 VST, VST3, Audio Unit, or built-in plug-ins within a single instance in your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW). With both serial and parallel routing options, it offers unmatched flexibility for routing, mixing, and processing your audio.

This powerful tool allows you to chain effects in series or create up to 8 independent parallel chains that can be activated at will. No need for multiple buses or complex routing setups. Simply create your custom configurations within PatchWork and save them as presets that can be recalled instantly or shared between different DAWs. Enhance your plug-in chains with the built-in audio effects for added color and versatility.

Despite the name, PatchWork eliminates the need for wires or cables. Configuring plug-in routing is as simple as adding or removing rows and columns in the rack’s matrix. You can also use the virtual MIDI ports to allow communication between plug-ins or with the host application.
