[CM] Reconfigurable DSP patches

[cristopher pierson ewing]

I understand that normally, this type of thing would be packaged with each
dsp being a generator, and the patch itself being an instrument, but that
would require the user, in advance, to program all the combinations of
dsps they might desire into separate instruments, and then call each one
by name at the right time.

What if the user could instead allocate dsp objects (instruments) in
advance that he/she might wish to use, and then algorithmically patch them
together by feeding the output of one into the input of the next?  This is
the paradigm I'm seeking.

Perhaps I'm missing something in your reply, but it doesn't seem to
address this aspect of my question.
