Blue Cat Audio Blue Cats PatchWork v2.42 MacOS-R2R

Blue Cat 的 PatchWork 是一种通用插件跳线台，可以在一个实例中托管多达 64 个 VST、VST3、音频单元或内置插件到任何数字音频工作站 (DAW)。

可以串联连锁效果或创建最多 8 个可以独立激活的平行链。这让您可以在插件中创建您最喜欢的效果或乐器配置，而无需多条总线。这些配置可以保存为预设并立即调用，或使用任何插件格式（完整列表如下）与多个 DAW 共享。使用内置音频效果为您自己的插件链添加色彩。

尽管名称如此，但您可以忘记电线或电缆：配置插件路由就像在机架矩阵中添加或删除行或列一样简单。所有插件还可以使用插件提供的虚拟 MIDI 端口相互通信或与主机应用程序通信。

对于每个插件插槽，延迟补偿、预设管理、撤消/重做集成、音频 I/O 选择和单独的插件旁路都包括在内，以实现最佳操作。该插件还为每个插件存储窗口的位置，以便在您的会话中恢复布局或与预设一起保存。

此外，子插件可以使用 Blue Cat 的 PatchWork 参数映射功能通过外部控制表面进行自动化或控制。

该产品可用作音频插件（效果器或虚拟乐器）和独立应用程序，因此它可以单独使用或插入您最喜欢的 DAW 中的任何类型的轨道上，具有多达 16 个音频通道。

Blue Cat’s PatchWork is a universal plug-ins patchbay that can host up to 64 VST, VST3, Audio Unit or built-in plug-ins into any Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) in one instance.

It is possible to chain effects in series or create up to 8 parallel chains that can be activated independently. This lets you create your favorite effects or instruments configurations within the plug-in, without the need for multiple busses. These configurations can be saved as presets and recalled instantly, or shared with multiple DAWs, using any plug-in format (full list below). Use the built-in audio effects to add color to your own plug-in chains.

Despite the name, you can forget about wires or cables: configuring plug-ins 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.

Also, sub plug-ins can be automated or controlled with external control surfaces using Blue Cat’s PatchWork parameters mapping capabilities.

This product is available as an audio plug-in (effect or a virtual instrument) and standalone application, so that it can used alone or inserted on any type of track in your favorite DAW, with up to 16 audio channels.

Input and output level meters are also available to monitor the signal that is dispatched to inserted plug-ins, including side chain and aux channels.
