Configurable VST, VST3 or Audio Unit plug-ins rack: host up to 64 third party plug-ins or instruments in series or parallel.Also, any Blue Cat Audio plug-in is compatible and can be hosted by this software.Ĭopyright Note: VST is a trademark of Steinberg Media Technologies GmbH. If you are looking for a multiband plug-ins host for multiband processing, check out the Blue Cat's MB-7 Mixer plug-in. 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. 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. 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.Īlso, sub plug-ins can be automated or controlled with external control surfaces using Blue Cat's PatchWork parameters mapping capabilities. All plug-ins can also communicate with each other or with the host application using the virtual MIDI ports offered by the plug-in.įor 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. Use the built-in audio effects to add color to your own plug-in chains.ĭespite 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. These configurations can be saved as presets and recalled instantly, or shared with multiple DAWs, using any plug-in format (full list below). This lets you create your favorite effects or instruments configurations within the plug-in, without the need for multiple busses. It is possible to chain effects in series or create up to 8 parallel chains that can be activated independently.
