Modular Routing Platform – Windows Rack Performer
Rack Performer – is a modular audio routing system that incorporates any audio signal and plugin routing with sample accuracy.
It reminds a bit of the OS X tool Audulus , a bit of Audiobus in iOs and VSTForx (all platforms). you may built memory and routing for FX, inputs, outputs, mixers and plugins in your machine – so rack performer is a host application that can also incorporate sequencers and other control tools. so it is a bit more like the pulsar/scope environment than a classic modular synth – audio environment may be the best words to describe what it does..
note – this may also be your base for multichannel mixing and processing..

Rack Performer ist wie eine Art AUDIO PROZESSOR OBERFLÄCHE oder PLATTFORM, die modular angelegt ist, sie erinnert an die oben verlinkten Angebote – am meisten wohl Audulus mit etwas weniger „Synthesizer“Aspekt, hier fällt mir am meisten ein, komplexe Setup zu bauen die ggf mit vielen Kanälen und Lautsprechersystemen arbeiten – zB für 5.1 Surround oder viel viel mehr. Noch näher als Audulus ist wohl VSTForx an diesem Konzept.
FEATURES:
Patch
In Patch mode, load and connect any number of effects and instruments
Create patches easily and smoothly in a fast OpenGL-rendered patcher
A large choice of built-in modules is available, with various mixing and processing effects, filters and many more
VST plugins are fully supported, including MIDI sequencers and MIDI effects
All connection schemes are possible, like multi-channel and side-chain routings
Most internal modules support multi-channel streams (up to 7:1) on their inputs and outputs
Edit
In Edit mode the application interface is full-screen without scrolling or overlapping windows
Dispatch all module interfaces on up to 8 virtual screens, each holding its own rack of modules
Select GUI wrappers to build custom control surfaces to focus only on important parameters
Modules have their own presets bank where their state and configuration can be stored and recalled at will
Quick MIDI controller mapping supports advanced types like 14bit CC and NRPN, along with mapping curves
Easily create keyboard splits, layers and merges or transpose notes on the fly by using the provided MIDI effects
Incoming MIDI events can be filtered by type at three levels: per MIDI input device, per input channel or ultimately per module
Perform
High-precision sample-accurate engine allows for low jitter and ultra tight control and synchronization
Events sequencing, automation and processing is completely sample-accurate from end to end. All nuances of the performance are more faithfully conveyed, recorded and reproduced
Full sample accuracy also permits to have a complete patch delay compensation (PDC) that is not merely limited to delaying audio signals as all controls events are properly aligned
Scene Snapshots are an original way to save and recall any instant of the performance in a flash
Allocate dedicated audio output channels for audio monitoring, ideal to cue sounds on headphones before playing them
Complete multi-channel real-time audio recording support. The recorder can stream to disk any number of channels from any point(s) in the patch
Transport bar with auto-hide and a very slim design keeps all synchronization and master clock controls always accessible
Use the Live Sync and Full Slave synchronisation modes to lock to external master clocks, using any standard protocol
Synchronize to any source exactly like a DJ would do, with the manual sync controls, including Tap Tempo, Sync-to-Push and tempo skew
