    Now announcing my new app, FastRoute. This one is a long time in the making. The idea of FastRoute is that you have sessions, and within these sessions you have different blocks that you can add, in any order you want, to send audio anywhere you like and process it however you like. This app is for Windows users, and is designed to create a similar ish experience to something like Audio Hijack from the Mac. Input blocks include things like input devices, applications, system audio (with exclusions support), internet streams. Effects include a 4 band parametric EQ, a 10 band EQ, channel mixer, pitch shifter, normalizer, compressor, and more. Outputs include output device, recorder, etc. FastRoute can also send and receive audio across the network, using it's net send/net receive blocks. We have our own protocol, but also support VBAN (VB Audio Network) protocol as well! This barely scratches the surface of the power of FastRoute, so check it out! github.com/masonasons/FastRout

    @Derek OK, so issue. I can't directly include the plugin into FastRoute. Why? Your license and my license are incompatible. Why do I need to use the license I'm using? Because Asio requests it.

    @Derek that being said, you can already load the clap plugin in FastRoute today, it's just not integrated.

    @brynify I saw that, which is very cool, I was just trying to make something people could use wherever it would be helpful

    @Derek Oh definitely, and if you can fix your licensing to be compatible with FastRoute's, I'm happy to reevaluate!

    @brynify then I have to make sure that I don't accidently make the terms incompatable with any other project where it lives. If any of the tech podcasts ever do a blerb on licensing, I'd be for it.

    @brynify I hate crap like this! Here is an example of where I've asked thw wrong questions of AI because I never thought to ask what would allow optilab core to be used with the most audio software, but prohibit people from rebranding and selling it as well.

    @brynify This is kind of awesome! I almost want to do an audio demo, just because of how easy it now is to capture my voice and NVDA. I was going to ask you if there are plans to let users record each source block individually, but then I realized that I can just add a record block after each source, with another record block at the end of the chain to get all the sources together.

    @brynify No, not quite. Turns out things are cumulitive. I put a recorder right after my mic, and got just my voice, but the recorder at the end of the pipeline got both my voice and my application. Are there plans to somehow specify that a record block stops audio from flowing through the pipeline, in case we want to record multiple sources to individual files and mix them manually later?
