We are being very careful about changes to the web interface patchbay. Some things might appear simple, but have nasty side-effects.
At the moment we have enough stuff to do (I mean in the plans) that goes until around middle of next year.
Most of these things are needed for the Dwarf, some for plugins. But ideas do not hurt. If enough people think it would be something great to have, of course we consider it and try to put it somewhere in the roadmap.
Since we do not have a public roapmap at the moment, and talks in the company give me the impression it is quite okay to be more open about future release plans, I will just write here a basic overview:
- v1.10 - dwarf MVP; has the whole set of features for plugins to support arbitrary messages and a file manager; software bypass (Dwarf does not have true-bypass relays like Duo and Duo X)
- v1.11 - Pedalboard builder (in the device itself, no PC) for the Dwarf; MOD Labs, if that ends up being ready this time; “HMI Widgets” (plugins can take control of the widgets on the device screen, for custom values, led on/off, etc); Improve addressing lists to device actuators and CC, so we can e.g. individually pick from a preset list
- v1.12 - audio/midi over usb (focus on Dwarf, we will verify for which units it is also possible to enable this); Offset for MIDI channel snapshot/pedalboard loading; overall improvement to MIDI sync
of course, this is not set in stone, by any means.
we already tweaked what was going to be v1.10, by pushing MOD Labs forward and bringing file handling earlier.
