Description: Blue Cat’s PatchWork is a universal plug-in patch panel that allows you to connect up to 64 plug-ins in one instance in any sequencer. It allows you to connect effects in series or create up to 8 parallel chains, which can be activated independently. This allows you to create your favorite configurations from effects or instruments, without the need for multiple buses. The configuration can be saved as a preset. The plugin is available as a tool and as an audio effect.
