Blue Cat Audio has released version 2.75 of PatchWork, a multi-effects processor that functions as a virtual patchbay for audio plugins. The free upgrade delivers expanded macro control options, allowing users to choose between knob and switch display styles while establishing default parameter values. Enhanced MIDI capabilities permit bypass and interface visibility commands through automation alongside support for note-based triggering, pitch bend, and 14-bit control change messages.
The software gains direct audio recording functionality supporting WAV files with up to 16 channels, embedding transport position data for digital audio workstation alignment. Plugin hosting improvements include better latency compensation, zoom following for built-in modules, and enhanced synchronization with host transport systems. Chain preset management enables full signal path saving and loading with compatibility across related Blue Cat Audio products.
The update is available without charge to existing customers through their original download links. New purchasers can obtain PatchWork at 89 dollars or euros through November 30, reduced from the standard 99-dollar price, with demonstration versions available for Mac and Windows platforms.
