MIDI API Status — The MIDI API column shows whether a plugin supports remote control from the RP2350 microcontroller (used in the Groovebox and future controller firmwares). The Groovebox is currently in development as the reference implementation. Once the MIDI API is finalized, support will be added to all legacy plugins. Legend: ✅ Supported · 🔧 In Progress · — Planned
