4,9 / 5,0 | 
What is the best way to link up your synths? With Heritage Audio Synth Buddy you can route any instrument in your studio quickly and easily.
Many of us have stacks of keyboards, samplers, and drum machines, but an audio interface with a limited number of inputs. This can make it tricky to get sounds from your hardware without connecting each unit when you need it.
Heritage Audio Synth Buddy
With Synth Buddy, Heritage Audio has solved the routing problem, giving you a passive switcher with 10 stereo (20 mono) line inputs for your gear controlled by a rotary switch. With this system, you can leave your instruments connected at all times, so you aren’t left in a bowl of cable spaghetti when that moment of inspiration strikes.
With all your favourite creative hardware pieces connected to Synth Buddy, all you need is MIDI connectivity and you can immediately select and use each with the flick of a switch. In addition, Synth Buddy’s routing can also be used in reverse.
This makes it easy to add a range of different hardware effects units into your workflow, provided that you have two available ins and outs on your audio interface and a mixer to manage your effects returns. With Synth Buddy reverse-routed from your DAW to your effects units, and your effects returns routed into your DAW, you have a simple workflow for adding flavour to your sounds.
What’s more, Synth Buddy can also be used for signal routing in live sound situations. For electronic musicians, it’s useful on stage, or a great tool for front-of-house engineers to carry in that essential toolbox.

I don’t see a valid use for such a product. Anyone with so many synths should already have a multi channel audio interface or at least an analog mixer desk.
I do not understand why this product exists as any cheap mixer with an aux or bus out is going to outperform it on routing and level options. Seriously does this thing mute nine out of the ten devices connected to it?
