There has been a finger drumming update in beta for a year now. When should we expect a new firmware update? I’m actually not super interested in the finger drumming but I’m hoping for QoL improvements. Any information about this would be awesome!

Just want to know if
- Pad Colors for sounds and channels
- Pad colors for pattern and fluid Song mode (no waiting on pattern copies)
- Sample Slice (waveform?)
- Synth and MIDI mapping per encoders
These would be amazing 
wavetable and granular engines from tracker would be a dream … sorry … just thought Id squeeze this one in there 
The Beta came out in Mid November 2024
Here’s the official word

For us that are on the outside looking in, can you please list the QoL features you wish to see in a update…
Play + a modular is still high on my list as a portable live setup but so many cool units are out or comming out and its hard to remain patient …
On the flip side the Play is one of the most ingenious sequencers and arrangers I know of both in terms of features and workflow/speed …
But I have to say it’s a bit worrying how long this major update is taking 
First I love the Play its exactly what I needed from a device like this. I can pick it up and in literally minutes I can have a awesome groove going. I love that I don’t need my computer or iPad to get creative.
The fix I’m looking for (ironically after what I said above) is an issue with USB audio to a computer. If I load up a synth on the Play + sometimes the sound is corrupted and I have to mess around to get it playing the audio correctly. Polyend is aware of the issue. It only happens with the synths which I haven’t played around with too much so it’s not a show stopper. Still for the price of this device I would expect it work properly.
I think the delay on updates is due to polyend dropping two new hardware units in the past few months.
