BLDS Generator
Set-and-forget plugin for playback, broadcast and live production engineers running redundant systems with DirectOut hardware.
Overview
Drop it on any track, route it to your designated output, and it runs invisibly for the lifetime of your session — negligible CPU, no configuration, no drift from your reference signal. It runs independently of the playhead and conforms to any sample rate you're working in.
Whichever machine loads its project first is treated as active, so there are no unwanted switchovers caused by timing discrepancies or detection ambiguity.
Developed by me on the road to fix a problem I kept seeing out there.
Each purchase includes two licences — one for your primary machine, one for your backup.
Compatibility
Tested on macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon) on Ableton Live 11/12 and Logic Pro 11 but should work flawlessly on any Mac DAW that can run VST3 or AU devices.
If you have a need for a Windows or AAX version, please get in touch.
