Setups

What's plugged into what?

Setups is a canvas for drawing your signal flow until it makes sense: every device, every port, every cable, and the kind of signal it carries.

Cables you own
What a setup needs, against what's in the drawer.
Snapshots
Save a snapshot before you rewire, and restore it when the new way turns out worse.

Where was that compressor sitting?

Projects keeps track of it for you, session by session, right next to the song.
