It is for connecting the automations in one program, to plugins in
another program. In the illustrated step by step example, it is ardour
automations controlling a patch made in galan (but it could similarly
connect to pd, whathaveyou).

It also comes with some basic computational operator plugins (+, -, *,
/, %, |, ||, if, etc.) that should be useful for patching things
together pd style.
