analog audio patchbay routing system. A combination of Software
known as the PATCH APP and a 192 Point Connection (96 Inputs
& 96 Outputs) PATCH XT Hardware component allows users to
easily route and control analog audio routings without having to
resort to the use of manual patch cables.
The PATCH APP software application (OSX & Windows
compatible) is designed with familiarity in mind. PATH’s in the
application represent audio signal flows from top to bottom.
Signal flows are divided up into single vertical columns allowing
users to drag + drop available analog audio equipment connected
to the PATCH XT’s Hardware component. This analog audio
equipment is cataloged in the Hardware Index located to the left
side of the PATCH APP.
The PATCH XT Hardware component is a 3U rack mountable unit

processing setup. Utilizing digital control over analog audio
signals is what makes the PATCH XT System unique and unlike
anything else in the audio industry.
