Description

A patcher (like the one in FL Studio) would be useful. It can make it a lot easier to see what plugins are being used and how they are affecting the sound. The patcher should include a dashboard for automation controls to allow for easy access to a variety of settings on the plugins. The implementation of an X/Y pad would be very much appreciated (as both a plugin and a controller on the patcher dashboard) because it can help to visualize what is being automated.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by mapping LMMS's existing plugin, routing, automation, and controller interfaces, then determine where a patcher and X/Y pad would fit. Done would require an agreed design and implementation covering the requested patcher dashboard, plugin visibility, automation controls, and X/Y pad behavior.
