I'm pleased to share another update to Floe with loads more improvements. The headline feature for this update, 2.0.3, is MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression) support. If you have a MPE-compatible controller, you can fully control Floe with it. You just need to turn on Floe's MPE mode on the Performance Controls panel. Polyphonic pitchbend will work right away; and if you want to use the controller's 'slide' and 'press' dimensions, you can assign these to volume, filter or timbre (timbre is only active if the instrument has built-in crossfade layers) on each layer's CONFIG page.

Additionally, we've streamlined the process for installing encrypted packages. Now, you can download a single license key file from your FrozenPlain Downloads, and give it to Floe rather than copy-and-paste each key per-product.
There's more improvements too:
- A new unified Performance Controls panel for MIDI and reproducibility settings with a better way to configure how you want things to persist
- Floe now offers to send the floe package file to the Trash after installation - leaving your computer cleaner
- When you hit a key - the velocity marker now appear on each layer's volume slider - handy to see the real effect of the CONFIG page's 'Velocity to volume curve'
- Copy and paste FX settings between presets
- Bug fixes
Floe is the free plugin that our sample libraries run in. Update for free today to access all these new features on all your existing libraries.
