Forma Labs Audio release Filament 1.2

Real-time MIDI orchestrator updated

Forma Labs Audio have recently launched a significant update that brings some powerful new features to their real-time MIDI orchestration software.

Launched in June 2026, Filament is capable of hosting and controlling up to 64 AU or VST3 instruments within a single DAW track. As well as hosting the instruments, the plug-in also takes care of MIDI routing, voice allocation, clips, arpeggiators, keyswitch management and mixer states, providing users with an all-in-one solution for controlling orchestral libraries and other complex virtual instruments.

What's New? The plug-in has just been treated to an update that introduces a whole host of new features. Here's a look at what's included in Filament 1.2:

MPE Support: Per-note pitch bend, pressure and timbre for hosted instruments.

Auto Divisi: Automatically distribute chord notes across instrument parts.

Host Mode: Play edited DAW MIDI parts directly through Filament's hosted instruments.

Note-off Revoice: Choose whether releasing a key redistributes the remaining notes.

Routing Highlights: See connections across input layers more clearly.

Matrix Mute/Solo: Silence or isolate instrument rows directly from the routing matrix.
