AUV3 support please and landscape mode! 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Response from developer

Thanks for using the app Jerome, this genuinely made my week. Both are on the list. Landscape is the nearer one. On AUv3, do you mean loading plugins inside Foundry, or running Foundry as a plugin inside another app like Logic or AUM? Either way it's a bigger build, so I won't promise a date, but I'm taking it seriously. If you email me at developer@querci.net I'll let you know personally when either one lands.

The best production app in the game ⭐️⭐️

The pads on this are so intuitive it’s crazy!! With this when it comes to sampling it’s all you need! Definitely sampling with this from now on.
