So; I can carry on using QjackCtl and its Patchbay, or
work via a meterbridge,
or?
I have been working on a Pipewire-based revision to my BNR
(
https://lsn.ponderworthy.com) for some time; I have to have a patchbay
of some sort because that thing has a whole lot of connections :-)
Helvum:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/helvum
gives the visual very nicely, and then I wrote pw-loadwires,
pw-savewires, and pw-dewire, to be found here:
https://github.com/ponderworthy/the-box-of-no-return-3
pw-loadwires and pw-savewires will save wire-sets in CSV files.
pw-dewire is a convenient way to remove all wires at once. Thus far,
very reliable, fast, and convenient.
