THE SYSTEM TOOLS
From the VRack Menu.
1. Select the New Menu.
2. Select the Engineering Tools Submenu.
3. Select the Patch Bay icon.
The Patch Bay is divided into smaller areas called patchsets.
Each patchset represents all the inputs and outputs; of a
particular DSP tool, the set of physical inputs or, the set of
physical outputs.
Within each patchset there exists a number of patch points.
Each patch point represents either an input or an output and can
be connected via a graphical patch cable to another patch point.
Patch points are the virtual equivalents of the XLR connectors
found on audio hardware.
Each DSP tool patchset may be assigned a name from the Patch
Bay. This name will appear in the DSP tool name section of
the display.
Scroll pins on the physical input and output patchsets allow the
pinning of the patchset. When a patchset is pinned it will not
scroll when the Patch Bay’s scrollbar is used.
The connection of audio between two patch points is done by
selecting pairs of patch points.
1. Click on the first patch point.
2. The patch point will turn red signifying it has been selected.
3. Click on the second patch point.
If compatible, the two patch points will be connected by a
patch cable.
1. Click on a set of patch points.
The patch points will stay red indicating they are all selected.
2. Click on the first point in the series that you wish to connect
the original patch points to.
The patcher will connect the patch points in series.
