A graph, not a chain.

Most guitar software locks you into a linear pedalboard. djent.studio is a directed graph: any node can feed any other node. Split, recombine, bypass, re-route — the topology is the instrument.

Documents are plain data: nodes, positions, connections, params, audio settings. Save a patch, open it later, share it.
