When working on some patches, I’ve found that I need to connect a number of sources to a common destination. At present, each individual connection has to be routed from the point of origin to that destination. On more complex patches this leads to a real ‘spiders nest’ of patch cords snaking through/around the patch.

It struck me that it would be very handy to have a special ‘bus’ object. This would be a long straight line which is connected to an inlet (or an outlet). Any patch cord could connect to that line at any point, and in doing so would be automatically connected to the object to which the bus was linked.

It does fall under the ‘nice to have’ category rather than something important but it would certainly help in the construction of complex patches.
