Hi guys!

This is one of those things I'm not so sure about in regard to studio stuff.

I was wondering if there is such a thing as an affordable and effective digital audio patchbay?

You know just like the analog ones but no messy spaghetti on the front. I see digital matrix's and buttons as much more logical than the annoyance of having a bunch of cables in the way. Looking for something 1U and with a relatively straightfoward interface ideally.

Anyone?

SSL X-Patch ?

Signex Smartpatch is another.

Z systems Patchbays

&

I do believe TC electronic make one too.

My Z-SYS patchbay is the heart of my system and I really couldn't do what I need to do without it... one of the best purchases I have ever made.

That's for the responses everyone!

A few there to think of, kinda surprised there is not more options, particularly simple and affordable ones. That Signex unit looks like what I would like but at 2k it's way too steep for me. The other units are a little more than what I need.

Looks like I'll be doing it old school after all haha
