Roadmap

Floe is an ongoing project that will have lots of backwards-compatible updates. We want to be able to release new features and improvements as soon as they’re ready.

• Finish VST3 and AU support
• Complete the GUI for adding multiple libraries to a single instance
• Recreate the presets infrastructure and GUI
• Comprehensive testing of all plugin formats in all DAWs and operating systems
• Prepare a couple of Floe sample libraries ready for release
• Ability to split layers to different ranges on the keyboard
• Implement pitchbend

Later down the line, we’re planning to:

• Refresh the GUI: make it more consistent and performant, and refactor the code for easier expansion
• Overhaul the audio & MIDI processing engine for easier expansion, such as: MIDI MPE, MIDI2, polyphonic modulation, sample-accurate automation, MIDI learn.
• Add more features to the sample library format to allow for more complex instruments: legato, key-switches, drums, etc.

Even further down the line, we’re looking into:

• Allow for creating custom GUIs ‘views’ using the library Lua API
• Adding wavetable oscillators/granular synthesis as a option to layer with sampled instruments
• Adding a more comprehensive modulation system

Give us feedback on these using Github’s discussions section. FrozenPlain also have a Floe section on their forum.
