Firmware updates broken

As of this writing, firmware updates are impossible for the Cobalt and Argon series due to a 500 error not being able to access the firmware server. Very disappointing from this company to hype the v2 Cobalt 8 firmware but make it impossible for users to get it.

The app works fine for other things.

No import or export of presets

It is great to have such an app for this synth for each of the main platforms. Unfortunately, there is no provision to import or export presets on iOS like there is on Windows.

Needs updating

The current version of the app on an iPhone 12 looks odd, won’t display the editor for Craft Synth 2, won’t upload samples to Craft Rhythm, and doesn’t route midi from midi controllers to any modal device, including the Skulpt and Argon8. I’m having to use a previous version on an old phone.

When the app functions properly, it’s fantastic.
