Roadmap

No dates — just phases. Priorities shift based on feedback and resources.

For the full vision and technical architecture, see the Whitepaper. For the current plugin manual—front panel, Dev Panel, Validation Console, tutorials—see the Documentation.

1. Completed

Shipped through the current v2.05 beta cycle

  • Five engines, ten algorithms (Green, Blue, Red, Purple, Black — each with NQ and HQ modes)
  • v2.05 beta release built and published across macOS, Windows, and Linux
  • Signed, notarized macOS installer with shared resources, AU, VST3, Standalone, and AAX
  • Switching cleanup: engine colour changes and HQ/NQ transitions are pop-free in the release build
  • Control smoothing cleanup: depth, width, and color zippering removed across the release baseline
  • Single factory JSON source of truth for defaults and release seeding
  • Factory preset protection so shipped presets cannot be overwritten by users
  • Windows x64 and x86 support (VST3 + Standalone)
  • Windows ARM64 support (VST3 + Standalone)
  • Preset system: 7 factory presets, user preset save/load/delete, preset browser in header bar
  • Dev Panel: 7-tab diagnostic suite with interactive console (30+ commands), live telemetry, FFT analyzer, LFO scopes, transfer curves, and 12 guided tutorials
  • Crash reporter with session logging and next-launch recovery prompt
  • Built-in feedback dialog with usage stats collection
  • Per-engine parameter memory (switching engines recalls your last settings)
  • Rate sync overlay: right-click Rate for tempo-synced divisions (straight, triplet, dotted)
  • Animated top bar drawer (DEV, About, Help, Feedback access)
  • AU validation fix (Logic Pro), platform-specific factory defaults
  • Linux x64 support (VST3 + Standalone)

2. Current focus

Post-v2.05 stabilization and commercial launch prep

  • Hotfixes driven by public v2.05 beta feedback
  • Final DSP tuning and engine polish across all 10 algorithm variants
  • Windows installer and signing path for a smoother first-run release experience
  • UI polish and accessibility refinements
  • Commercial launch packaging, licensing, and checkout prep
  • Evaluating next-release workflow features like persisted tempo-sync state after the current beta cycle settles

3. Commercial launch (v1.0)

Targeted after the current public beta cycle

  • Closed-source commercial fork (open-source beta repo stays public under GPLv3)
  • Paddle integration for one-time perpetual license sales ($49.99 USD)
  • Professional installers for macOS (.pkg) and Windows
  • Signed .kzn preset format — cryptographically signed preset files with creator attribution
  • Asset manager for community skin sharing via the Dev Panel

4. Post-launch

What comes next

  • New engines and algorithms
  • MIDI learn, ARA support
  • .kzn ecosystem expansion — community preset sharing and creator marketplace
  • No-code engine builder for custom .kzn configurations
  • Additional features from community feedback
