Roadmap

Version 0.4.0 (Beta)

• Write a JACK audio backend.
• Write a JACK MIDI frontend.
• Implement the Sample generator.
  • Load sound files into sample tables.
  • Allow users to define attack, sustain, and release segments.
  • Allow users to define some simple transitions between the segments depending on the timing of the note on and note off events.
• Implement the Additive generator.
  • Allow users to run up to 256 simultaneous sine waves in the Additive generator.
    • Let users change their pitches, their amplitudes, and their offsets.
    • Have some ways of controlling these en masse.
    • Maybe have individual trapezoidal envelopes for each sine wave?
• Maybe implement effects early?
  • Start with a Buttersworth filter and a BiQuad filter if this will be done.

Version 0.5.0 (Beta)

• Optimize, optimize, optimize!
• Refine the code quality.
  • Separate the UI and the "meat" of the program.
• Make the current Settings interface its own windowed dialog.
  • Add a button to the Player interface to access it.
• Have each internal channel run in its own QThread.
  • Allow users to change between no added threads, two threads, and four threads.
  • Make sure the threads run at a very high priority.
• Maybe implement per-item presets.
  • Add buttons to each generator overview to allow people to load and change the presets.
  • Add an undo/redo vector?
  • Implement copying/pasting generators and channels?
