Description:	External Audio Routing for Ableton Audio Effect Racks Function: A fast and precise audio injection module.

Key Features: * Total Control: Select any tap point (Pre FX, Post FX, Post Mixer) for every track in Ableton. * Hardware Ready: Supports external devices sidechaining, enabling you to route signals from analog hardware directly into your Rack chain. * Zero Latency: The device introduces no signal delay. * Ultra Lightweight: Extremely low CPU usage. * Visual Control: Built-in display (operating signal timeline) for real-time monitoring of the processed audio. Two Operating Modes: 1. NORMAL (Bypass): Transparent flow. Audio passes through without changes to the next effects in the chain. 2. SIDECHAIN (Injection): Replaces the original audio with the signal selected from the menu. Usage Instructions: Place the device anywhere in the Chain: 1. Use Mode Normal for standard signal flow. 2. Use Mode Sidechain to replace audio with an external signal – perfect for triggering compressors or gating effects via another track or external hardware.
