What's shipped. What's next. And no dates.
My honest version of a roadmap. The long, growing Shipped column below is the point — proof the product is actively maintained, not a wall of promises.
Direction, not a promise. No dates, because nobody honestly knows how long it takes to invent something.
Already done. Already playing.
Not a plan — this runs today, on my machine, while I build.
What I'm building toward.
Platform builds
One launch setmacOS, Windows and Linux ship as one coherent launch — co-equal platforms, not tiers.
Schematic image / PDF import
Drop in a schematic and get a reviewable, vision-assisted draft to edit.
Plugin formats at parity
VST3 and AU, feature-for-feature with the standalone app.
Accessibility & full keyboard control
Complete keyboard operation and screen-reader support throughout.
Ideas I'm kicking around.
On the table, nothing promised. If you've asked "will you ever add X?" — this is the honest answer, not a maybe-yes.
Module / block chaining
Chain circuit blocks into larger rigs.
WASM (in-browser)
Run Cathode in a browser tab — nothing to install.
Mobile
A touch build for phones and tablets.
Embedded / hardware players
Cathode designs running on dedicated hardware.
Circuit + pack marketplace
Designers sell packs; players get real-knob amps.
The board moves when the work does.
I update it about once a month, alongside the devlog. Follow along and watch the Shipped column grow.
