Revolutionize Your Workflow with Software Control
At its core, the Wolff Audio ProPatch 32R is a 32-point, 16-in/16-out patchbay with flexible routing. However, calling it just a patchbay would be an understatement. The ProPatch 32R allows you to configure and manage routing presets effortlessly using an intuitive software application. This app, when used in tandem with the unit's USB-C or Ethernet ports, lets you deploy your outboard processors like plug-ins, drag and drop them into complex chains, and audition, edit, and recall your presets instantly. Moreover, the ProPatch 32R is entirely relay-based, ensuring straight-wire performance with zero electronics in its fully balanced internal signal path. This functionality means it passes full-bandwidth signals without noise, crosstalk, or distortion. Additionally, the ProPatch 32R accommodates mic, line, CV, MIDI, and digital signals, as well as phantom power. To top it off, it requires minimal power to operate and generates no heat, eliminating the need for fans. Are you tired of the workflow interruptions caused by configuring your manual patchbay system? If so, the ProPatch 32R is poised to revolutionize your studio experience.

Transparent relay-based design
The ProPatch 32R features a no-compromise relay-based design with zero electronics in the signal path, offering numerous advantages. Firstly, it's sonically transparent, exhibiting zero noise, crosstalk, or distortion. It's also highly reliable, leveraging telecom-scale technology rated for millions of cycles. Additionally, relay-based designs require minimal power to operate and generate no heat, eliminating the need for cooling fans. Moreover, this straight-wire signal path is agnostic to the types of signals being routed, enabling it to pass full-bandwidth audio signals, both mic and line level, along with CV, MIDI, and digital signals with equal assurance. It also passes 48-volt phantom power with instant switching to prevent shorts. Lastly, the ProPatch 32R's relays are latching, so if the unit loses power, your current routing remains intact.
Effortless software-based routing
The Wolff Audio ProPatch 32R is a next-generation software-controlled analog patchbay, allowing you to configure and manage routing presets effortlessly using the intuitive Wolff Hound software application on your Mac, Windows-based PC, or iPad. You can connect to the app via USB-C or Ethernet, then deploy your hardware processors like plug-ins. Drag and drop your devices into complex audio chains; then, you can audition, edit, and recall them instantly. Furthermore, the ProPatch 32R includes 32 front-panel TT patch points, as well as XLR and TRS jacks. These connectors enable you to integrate the ProPatch 32R into an existing TT patchbay system, quickly connect temporary gear, or scale up by interconnecting multiple ProPatch units to create a larger, fully recallable system.
