Loop Start

Loop Start startup is slow!!!
I want them to improve.

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.

Great app but only single velocity auto-sampling

That’s a great app overall, especially it is very easy to use to auto-sample synths through MIDI and the quality of the built-in presets. However there is a major limitation that is kinda of a showstopper for me : There is only one velocity level that is sampled. Hence also presets generated with it will play the same no matter the velocity you apply. There should be an update to improve this because in the age where MPE is everywhere, we cannot regress to not even velocity.

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

Great App but …

I cannot find a way to share the instruments that I have created. Can you help me please. Other than that, the app is great!

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

Limited Sampling Ability.

Response from developer

There is a limitation of 32 samples simply because being able to sample more is simpnot neccesary. If you are sampling 7 octaves (84 notes) that allows one sample to cover 3 semitones which is more than enough. You really don't need to sample every note to get a good sounding instrument. The presents use no more than 12 samples to cover an entire keyboard and sound great.

Great sampler, need improvement to mono/legato section

The sampler is great , but the mono is very basic no legato and no mono priority choice

This is amazing!

I have to say that this is an amazing app!! I have Omnisphere 2 and really hoped that it would be created for IOS, but it never will be. Then I found this app and all is well. I can bring my favorite massive Omnisphere pads into my iPad. Thank you!!

One request. Is there a way to improve the cross fade to conceal the cross fade point (where it ducks in volume creating a sort of tremolo effect at the cross fade point). I am working on a work around regarding the samples to try to create a more seamless loop point without having to use cross fade at this time. But if it could be improved this app would be well worth 5 times its price!

Almost perfect

Great sampler; would be 5 stars if it had an option to export sampled instruments in formats that allow them to be played outside the app (e.g. as wav files so I got load the multisample into my Korg Wavestate). Otherwise super if you just need to use it in AU hosts on the iPad; recommended.

Great Tool

But please, could it keep the sample name in a future update for easy editing of muti samples import and maybe pitch detection related to name ?

Very interesting

Very interesting.

Needs adsr for each sample

Hello
Cool app but it really needs adsr for each sample, so if you use drum mode you can adjust each sample accordingly and automate the envelope from an outside sequencer.
Thx

Fonctionne bien mais limitations

L appli fonctionne bien mais pour un sampler il manque la possibilité d importer des banques de samples genre EXS soundfont Akai et autres

Uhh... IIA not working?

Can't really find a way to reach the dev for support, so I'm posting it here. I can't get chameleon to receive audio from any other app through IIA. I tried:

-) AUM. Connecting to AUM output, it shows a successful connection in AUM. But chameleon seems to receive no audio, and the record button in chameleon won't click.

-) Audiobus 3: chameleon isn't listed as an output option at all in AB3. But I can select "Audiobus intermediate out" in chameleon, however, AB3 doesn't say anywhere that any connection was made (I don't know if it is supposed to say so), and in chameleon, it still seems to be receiving no audio.

-) connecting directly to audiokit synth one : inside chameleon, I selected synth one as my source. It says the same "success" message, but still seems to be receiving no audio. If I click monitor button, it warns me about feedback, but no sound is heard from synth one, and the record button still does nothing.

So I've tried three different ways to get IIA to be received by chameleon, and none worked. But the dev has been updating this app, so I find it difficult to believe that this problem would be overlooked. Am I doing something wrong?

I left 5 stars but if the dev doesn't respond and I can't find a solution elsewhere, I'll probably be back with a different rating.

Midi channel..?

Io lo trovo ottimo come campionatore, l’ho anche consigliato...
Ciò di cui sento la mancanza sono i canali midi! Potete inserirli? Altrimenti è difficile la gestione con apparecchi esterni😉

Amazing app!

Love it! Just what I need for live gig and composing.

Grande potencial

Parabéns pelo ótimo app. Deixo minha sugestão para adicionarem mais ferramentas para a gestão de looping dos samples. Seria bom ter uma função auto-looping, que identificasse a melhor posição. O Crossfade poderia ser ajustável também.
