It hosts up to 64 VST, VST3, AU or built-in plugins inside a single instance in any DAW, chained in series or split into parallel chains, and saves the whole thing as one preset you can recall in any host.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0441\/2286\/5816\/files\/blue-cat-patchwork-plugin.png?v=1794501128\" alt=\"Blue Cat Audio PatchWork plugin host and patchbay interface\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's no cable spaghetti: routing is a matrix of rows and columns. Up to 8 pre and post slots chain plugins in series, and up to 8 parallel chains can each be soloed, phase-flipped and mixed, with a global dry\/wet. Load instruments as well as effects, up to 8 in parallel, and route MIDI between sub-plugins or back to the host. Macro controls and parameter mapping let you automate or hardware-control anything inside, latency compensation is handled for you, and 30 built-in effects fill the gaps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy you'd want it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuild your perfect vocal chain or layered synth stack once and use it in every DAW you own, even if they use different plugin formats. Run parallel processing without setting up buses. Use a VST in a host that only takes AU. And as a standalone app, it becomes a live rig or a quick way to play instruments without opening a DAW.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHost up to 64 VST, VST3, AU or built-in plugins in series or parallel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 8 parallel chains with phase flip, solo and gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHost up to 8 virtual instruments and mix them\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMacro controls and parameter mapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible MIDI and audio routing, side chain and multiple outputs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLatency compensation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30 built-in effects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffect, instrument and standalone versions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSystem requirements\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMac: macOS 10.9 or later, Intel or Apple Silicon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindows: Windows Vista, 7, 8, 10 or 11, SSE2 processor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVST, VST3, AU (Mac only) and AAX, plus standalone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSOUND7 is an authorised Blue Cat Audio reseller.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDigital delivery: licence activation code sent by email.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g44iPZLfXIk\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"Blue Cat Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57760885375349,"sku":"1246-92","price":79.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0441\/2286\/5816\/files\/blue-cat-patchwork-plugin.png?v=1794501128","url":"https:\/\/sound7.com\/products\/blue-cat-patchwork","provider":"SOUND7","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
