Hey guys,

We're new to KVR Audio as a team and we've created/released a new open source C#/avalonia software package called StripKit that is free and open source. The download is available from either https://stripkit.pro (https://stripkit.pro) or if you want the source code and alter it, from our GitHub page @ https://github.com/Vybecode-LTD/stripkit (https://github.com/Vybecode-LTD/stripkit)

Have fun!

We just released v1.0.0 of our StripKit app, some additions:

v0.8.0 (2026-06-05)

• Skin tab (new 4th tab) — bind several exported strips to several parameters in one skin.json: add controls from a strip (auto-detected) or blank, edit each (id/type/param/asset/frames/size/bounds/value range), set skin name/author/design-resolution/window background, export.

• Layer-aware knob — step 1 (base + pointer) — composite a knob from a static body + a separate pointer that rotates, so the body stays crisp; explicit Base/Pointer slots with an independent pointer pivot.

• Batch-tab meter settings — the Batch template now exposes the full meter panel + a "source is a backdrop" toggle (lit on-art vs procedural LEDs over a housing).
  Importer resampling — re-time an existing strip to a new frame count (nearest-frame, no ghosting), not just re-stack orientation.

v1.0.0 (2026-06-06)

• Layer-aware — step 2 (auto-pointer extraction)— one click splits a flat knob into base + pointer via the radial-symmetry residual, with a confidence score.

• Layer-aware — step 3 (layered PSD / SVG import) — drop a layered knob from Photoshop (.psd) or Illustrator/Inkscape/Figma (.svg); each layer is mapped automatically with a name-guessed Static/Rotate behaviour you can override.

• Interactive Getting Started tutorial — a re-openable, per-tab guided overlay (Create/Import/Batch/Skin) that auto-opens on first run, with a one-click bundled sample knob and contextual tooltips on the key controls.

Free and open source to download and/or modify at the locations in the OP. If anyone has some features they'd like us to add, feel free to contact us and we'll do our best to accommodate.
