    Just curious, is anyone using  the BC Patchwork? It's an interesting idea - seems like it might be FX Chain on steroids.
     
    I'd be particularly interested in its resource usage as opposed to just using the built-in FX Chain.

    i demoed it extensively for a few days.
     
    the fact that you have to load plugins through your Windows browser is a huge turn off. for a plugin thats supposed to be a workflow enhancer its being totally tripped up by forcing you to navigate through your cakewalk/vstplugins folder and swath through manufacturer labelled folders and an unorganized mix of vst and vsti .dll's. Huge oversight, which also makes preset sharing impossible. 
     
     
    also insert controls, similar to those on FX Chains, cannot be labelled so you have no idea which plugin (out of the possible 64) they might be controlling. 
     
     
    All in all it is a fantastic idea, with no extra system strain that I noticed, but until they include an appropriate loading system I will not invest as in my book its pretty broken.
