Chameleon is so important

I purchase Chameleon a long while ago and it has been very useful, but just lately a lot of AUv3 Synth apps have been crashing unexpectedly during performances, so I have sampled all my most used presets and imported them into Chameleon, I am now 110% confident of stability, thanks Paul 🍻

Clutch!

Paul, this app is amazing. Is there any way we can get files to load in a sequential order if loading multiple samples at once?

Ex. Name: 1. Sample1, 2. Sample2 - 3. Sample3 … 32. Sample 32 in order?

Files get renamed by Chameleon so it’s hard to track them… files loaded in order can get mapped faster

Thanks!

Limited Sampling Ability.

The app unfortunately is limited to a maximum of 32 samples per preset. I would not have purchased this app had I known about this limit beforehand. Hours of time were wasted before learning about the limit. So do NOT expect to have a portable software sampler that can achieve “individually sampled” notes across a meaningful range (mapping each sample to specific keys). Layered preset functionality (as in 2 presets/64 samples total) would solve this. Microtonal tuning, for example, unfortunately is something that you will still have to turn to MacOS desktop software to achieve.

wheres the manual

No manual?Is this an easy, intuitive app?Don’t answer if it happens to be; for you! Even better I was sent to Kal marketing for app support from the app store?Non-sense! Worse, they wanted mke to sign in to X to get to 4pockets. How can I sign in to X when I have an aversion to the existence of Elon Musk and anyone who could tolerate his existence? What is going on here?Non information and tryin to get us to support people we don’t like? I have purchased almost all the apps and they are good and the complicated ones like string machine have a built in manual.Chameleon is more complex but with no manual and no way to get one, Why?
Apple or developer contact me with info. about a manual

Almost 5 Star

Great app for sampling synths, really easy to use. Problem is there is no way that I can see to export or backup created banks
