In this video, I discuss whether a patchbay is a good choice for a mastering chain, or if there are better alternatives. The question came from someone considering the DBX PB48, which is a fairly budget patchbay that, in my personal opinion, is not the right option for mastering. I believe there are far better choices available, and in this video I explain why.
