What’s New?
AAS has streamlined Chromaphone and brought it to a whole new level.
NEW Home View: With macros mapped to key sound characteristics (modulation, timbre, envelope, and effect), the Home View presents a distraction-free and laidback browsing and tweaking experience.
NEW Two-Voice Multitimbral: Chromaphone 3 combines two independent timbres, stacked or split, to create performance-friendly, texture-rich, and spacious sounds that are sure to leave a lasting sonic impression.
NEW Factory Library: Chromaphone 3 ships with a completely new factory library of 420 sounds created by top sound designers such as Michel Basque, Christian Halten, Jerry Kovarsky, Christian Laffitte, Niall McCallum, Adam Pietruszko, Daniel Stawczyk, Sean Divine, and Venus Theory. This incredible team made the most of the latest Chromaphone 3 innovations, and it’s with great pride that AAS presents these new signature sounds.
REMASTERED Chromaphone 2 Library: A long and fastidious process of fine-tuning went down at AAS’s headquarters. Each and every sound of the now legacy Chromaphone 2 library was reexamined by every AAS team member. Each sound now boasts a consistent gain-stage, unity-gain effects, better dynamics, and compelling real-time sound transformation assignments to take advantage of the new features of Chromaphone 3. All in all, these remastered patches add an extra 676 polished sounds to Chromaphone 3’s stock library.
NEW Browser: With organizational views for Packs, Sounds, Categories, and Creators, Chromaphone 3’s brand-new browser offers an efficient way to narrow down the sounds you’re looking for.
NEW Macros: Chromaphone 3 now boasts four performance macros per layer that respond to user-defined MIDI controls. Each and every sound features modulation, timbre, envelope, and effect morphing assignments that can be played in real-time for enhanced expressivity and sonic dimension.
IMPROVED Microtonal tunings via Scala scale files: Chromaphone 3 now supports the Scala scale file format as well as reference note frequency tuning for microtonal music-making.
COMPATIBLE with Chromaphone 2 sounds: Simply copy Chromaphone 2 banks into Chromaphone 3’s packs folder to convert them.
EXPANDED Multi-Effects Module: Chromaphone 3’s multi-effects module now sports reverb, equalizer, compressor, tremolo, and guitar amplifier processors for even more tone-shaping options. Furthermore, the five effect slots can be re-arranged in any order.
