The problem

Every audio tool was built
for someone else.

The powerful one looks like 2008. The clean one only works for streamers. The integrated one is locked to one brand of gear. Pick a trade-off.

Patchd is for everyone making something with sound.

Built for what creators
actually need.

Patchd brings every audio source into one polished workspace. Mics, instruments, virtual outputs, system audio, game audio, streaming inputs. Route them anywhere. Hear them in real time. Color-coded so you always know what's going where.

Visual routing that makes sense

Questions creators are asking.

How is Patchd different from VoiceMeeter?
VoiceMeeter is powerful but it shows. Patchd is built with the same depth of functionality and a modern interface that actually feels good to use. Plus color-coded routing, sub-10ms latency, and a real product roadmap.
Does Patchd work with my existing audio interface?
Yes. Patchd works alongside any hardware audio interface using native ASIO or WASAPI Exclusive. Your audio hardware doesn't need to change.
What's the latency really like?
Sub-10ms on consumer-grade hardware. Lower with ASIO interfaces. Built specifically for real-time monitoring, recording, and live streaming workflows.
Do I need a powerful PC to run Patchd?
No. Patchd is built lean. If you can run modern audio software, you can run Patchd.
What's included in the free version?
Core routing, up to 4 audio channels, basic effects, and community support. Plenty for most casual setups.
When is launch?
Patchd is in active development with WHQL driver certification underway. We're targeting late 2026 for public release. Join the waitlist to be first in line.
Will my purchase work on multiple PCs?
Yes. Pro and Studio licenses include activation on up to two machines. Personal use only.
Is there a refund policy?
30-day refund, no questions asked. See full policy at /refund.
Do you offer Mac or Linux versions?
Not yet. Patchd is Windows-only at launch. Mac and Linux are on the roadmap but not committed to a timeline.
How does the AI Assistant work?
When available, the AI Assistant analyzes your microphone audio and suggests optimal compressor, EQ, and noise gate settings. 30 free analyses included, then $2.99/month for unlimited.
