Blue Cat's Connector is an audio & MIDI streaming plug-in that can be used to transmit audio and MIDI signals in real time between several computers or applications or create your own routings within a single application with minimal latency. Have you ever dreamt to overcome the limitations of your favorite DAW and draw virtual audio and MIDI cables between any places that accept plug-ins? Have you ever been frustrated not to be able to create feedback loops with plug-ins? What about connecting multiple applications together on different computers? The wait is over! Blue Cat's Connector lets you do all of this and more! It can stream audio and MIDI data in real time between any locations that accepts plug-ins: one or several applications on one or several machines connected to a network. With precise buffering control you can achieve the lowest possible latencies: down to 0 samples when used in a single application. Its built-in resampling and drift compensation algorithms let you create seamless connections between locations with different sample rates and unsynchronized master clocks: it just works!
