I have the full fat MTRX not the studio but I looked into this before I bought it.
You may still want to use an analogue patchbay with your MTRX Studio.
Say you had 3 devices on inserts, a compressor, and EQ and an analogue colour box and you wanted to chain them serially.
If you use DADman as a digital patchbay you will have multiple ADA stages to deal with, which introduces latency with each step.
Much better to have an analogue patchbay, chain them in the analogue realm with one digital to analogue and one analogue to digital conversion.
If you never want to be able to chain devices together then it is less of an issue.
