Each subcategory contains a number of Sources or Targets, depending on the
current Session Configuration. Sometimes certain sections will not be pre-

The size of the X-Y General Patch automatically adapts to the number of
channels, input interfaces, output interfaces, and to the presence of DSP
function blocks in the channels – as defined in the Session Configuration.
