Just remember: From Patch: Out to In & In to Out. Be patient with yourself and take your time. Fantastic box. Over a year now with no issues. Will never manually patch gear again.
How do you connect 10 mics into the Flock? Is there a D-sub in 1-8 and 9-10 you would connect mic cables to? If all the ins and outs of your pres, compressors, eqs are connected to the flock patch I assume this is how? No one shows connecting mics just connecting gear to flock. I see two in's on the Flock for two mics with 48v. Thank You!
Game-changing tech, I love this box with my Big Six and disparate gear. So cool and appropriate they're using it with Audio-Scape stuff. Chris and Charlie rock. ASAF!
But how will we use our outboard gear as effect inserts? Usually we’d connect the input of the effect to the same number output on the interface. But how would we do that here?
Yes - you still do that exact same setup you are describing! Check out www.flockaudio.com/resources where we have a lot of PDF Setup diagram examples to help better understand the visual aspect of connecting your PATCH Hardware to your Analog Hardware! 🙌
Thank you for your question! The reason some microphones produce noise with the PATCH Series is that the PATCH operates at a +4 Line Level for its inputs and outputs. To use microphone signals with the PATCH, you have two options: #1. Connect your microphone to a preamp before routing it to the PATCH (Mic → Preamp → PATCH). #2. Or you can Utilize our 8-Channel CX Module, which is specifically designed to adapt the PATCH Series to handle microphone signals seamlessly. The CX Module integrates effortlessly with both the hardware and software, enabling the PATCH to work with any analog signal outside of the +4 Line Level standard. 😊 You can learn more about the CX Module here: www.flockaudio.com/cx
Awesome. Can I connect a PREAMP to the patch to use while tracking or is only for mixing with Outboards? it would be so simple to organize the entire chain.
Hi! We haven't had much of a request/demand for Linux or Android Support for the PATCH APP DX Software. We currently only have: OSX, Windows, iOS and iOS iPad Support. We're pass it along to the development team for their consideration 🙂

Thanks for the info, quick question can I use this device to make an iPad Pro setup only? And used with my outboard gear? I don’t have a Mac anymore
Hi! Because PATCH APP DX iOS requires communication with the host app, you will need to have a Desktop or Laptop running the PATCH APP DX Software. However; we are in the process of working on a USB-C to PATCH Series connection via iPad for controlling directly.

Super dope technology but priced way out of budget for most people. I achieved a patchbayless set up for half the price. All my outboard gear are click and drag in my daw. Very little latency.
Appreciate the Admiration! Routing within your Interface is fully capable of performing basic routings however; despite latency it is quite different in comparison to routing with the PATCH Series. This is why the costs associated between a recording interface with a DAC that performs the routing is much more affordable in comparison to the Analog Matrix that routes in the PATCH Series. Inclusive of a large difference in feature capability between Routing that The PATCH Series can perform, versus a Recording Interface cannot.
@@FlockAudio thanks for the reply. I love y’all company and products. I understand you’re a smaller business. Just hope one day it becomes more affordable. I admire companies who standby their products. Respect
Much appreciated! And Yes - We are always working on making the PATCH Series more affordable and strategizing how to get more of our systems into the hands of audio professionals like yourself everyday!
A save to cloud would be nice - I watched Colt Copperune installing this amazing thing 🙂
Thanks for the suggestion 🙂

VERY! Valid Point and Instruction! Easy to miss or mistakenly have the cables reversed! Thank you for the feedback as well on your PATCH! 🙂👏🏼

@@marc8vino my question exactly. you figure it out?

Thank you!! And Yes The Audioscape Team are the best!! 🤘🏻
I’d like to see how you use this with your big six….
This is flocking awesome!!!
😄 It sure is!
Nice job Ben. This is very informative and clarifies the signal chain and routing questions I have been working through.. great product.
Thank you for sharing! Glad it was helpful! 🙂

Thanks alot for this great simplification,
You are most welcome!!! 🙂
People are saying the direct input of the patch is noisy for using mics. How do I avoid that?

Hi Valerio, Yes - you can connect your Line Output directly to PATCH and setup the rest of your analog routing chain with the PATCH APP Software 🙌
Informative
Thank you!
I haven't been able to find a version of the Patch App for Android / Linux?

Do you group your mics before adding color
Can you daisy chain a pair of patchbays?
Of course! This is what we call "Multi-Unit Setup" which you can configure any combination of any model of PATCH Series models together!

this video makes it look like the flock is only for mastering
This is just a quick video example! PATCH Series is definitely for all analog routing related purposes in studios of all sizes 🙂
@@FlockAudio i just got mine your right
Happy PATCH'ing!
