v1.3.2 Fixed bug introduced in v1.3.1 preventing patch saving when in HDR mode. v1.3.1 Various bug fixes and performance improvements. v1.3.0 New monthly subscription option now available! Chromatose v1.3.0 introduces several new creative tools including a live Camera Generator, Wave Effect, Crop Effect, and new Keying capabilities. Also included are virtual MIDI routing, performance optimizations, and a variety of usability improvements throughout the app. 〉Camera Generator (New) Capture a live video stream from your device's cameras. Supports zoom control and automatic orientation handling. Feed the live camera directly into your effects chain. 〉Wave Effect (New) Apply FM/AM wave distortions to any input with full control over 3 waves. Parameters include: waveshape, frequency, amplitude, position, rotation, phase, and attenuation. 〉Crop Effect (New) Crop the output using three shape modes: Rectangle, Quad, or Oval. Great for configuring projector output, basic projection mapping, or creative framing. 〉Virtual MIDI Input (New) Other audio apps on the same device (e.g. sequencers) can route MIDI directly to Chromatose without any external hardware. 〉Device Preview (New) When an external screen is connected, the local device screen now shows a live downscaled copy of the external output instead of only the HUD controls. 〉Patch Auto-Save (New) Unsaved changes are automatically saved when the app goes into the background. Your work is restored when you return, so you never lose changes. 〉Keying Effect (Updated) New `mode` selector to key by hue, or saturation in addition to luma. Enables precise color-based keying for isolating or removing specific colors from the image. 〉Performance View (Updated) Macro knobs gain main powerful new features: • Add custom names to macro knobs. • Display all mapped parameters to see what each knob controls at a glance. • Deep links directly to the mapped parameters in the Design View for quick navigation & editing. • Delete all or individual mappings directly from the Performance View. • Configure MIDI mappings directly from the Performance View. 〉Audio Playback (Updated) Music from other apps can now play simultaneously while the audio engine is enabled. Chromatose no longer interrupts audio from other apps. 〉Photo Generator (Updated) New built-in rectangle cropping parameters for trimming the source image before any tiling or spacing is applied. 〉Library (Updated) • Remembers your last used query (search text, sort order, tag filters) when reopening. • Infinite scrolling replaces full list loading for faster performance with large patch collections. • Searching no longer hides the toolbar. 〉Modulation (Updated) New 32x and 1/32 rate multipliers for extreme fast or slow modulation speeds. 〉Mixer Blending (Breaking Change) Fixed a significant bug where blend modes and composite operators were applied incorrectly. All combinations now produce correct results with proper alpha handling and smooth edges. New Color Dodge blend mode added. NOTE: Patches saved before this update may look different. You may need to re-adjust blend and composite settings on existing patches. 〉Factory Presets All presets have been updated to include descriptive macro names using the new custom labeling feature. Chromatose now ships with a total of 32 hand-crafted presets patches. 9 New Factory Presets: • Edge Wave • Smile • Luma Fluid • Broken TV • Cubism • Flow State • Drippy Wave • Wiggly Bounce • Modern Art 〉Stability, Performance, Bug Fixes • Various performance improvements, bug fixes, and usability enhancements.

〉Tunnel Effect (New) • Turn any input into a traversable 3D-like tunnel with various parameters. 〉Channels Effect (New) • Separate the Red/Green/Blue channels of the image. Individually mix them, offset them, and change the angle of offset. 〉Feedback Effect (Updated) • New `min luma` parameter - a brightness threshold to limit which pixels get included in the feedback loop. • New `input` amount parameter. Controls the level of the current frame coming into the feedback effect (as opposed to the previous frame which is also sampled for feedback). This decides how much (0-100%) of the current frame to include in the final mixed output. Adjusting this enables pulsing to get "post-fader" kind of results. • New `layer pos` parameter. As before, and by default, the current frame was always layered above the previous frame. This swaps the order which can create dramatically different results. 〉Reduce Effect (Updated) Pixelation gets a complete overhaul with many new parameters: • New `shape` parameter - morphs between square and circular pixel shapes. • New `invert` parameter - inverts the pixel shape to create a cut-out effect. • New `spacing` parameter - adds spacing between the pixel shapes. • New `smooth` parameter - smooths out the pixel shape. 〉Photo Generator (Updated) • New `spacing` parameter - adds space between the photo tiles. Great for removing the tiling to focus on a single image (like a logo) and other fun variations. • New `sample` parameter - behaves the same as on the Feedback Effect, by controlling how the input image is sampled (Mirrored, Repeated, Clamped). 〉Responsive Layout • Supports any screen size. • Supports both Portrait and Landscape orientation. • Supports iPadOS 26 multi-tasking and window resizing. 〉Fine Tuner Input Control • Added smart stepper buttons to Fine Tuner control. 〉Main Mix • New `level` parameter controls the final output level. 〉Audio Modulation • New `slew` parameter, only available in follow mode, smooths transitions by this amount. 〉Factory Presets Chromatose now ships with a total of 23 hand-crafted presets. 5 New Factory Presets: • Cosmic Circus • Jupiter • LED Wall Tunnel • Neon Dream • Simple Color Shift 3 Preset Patches with updated macro controls: • Ancient Bardo • Copper Smoke • Rainbow Worm 〉Push Notifications • Stay updated by opting in to any 3 categories of push notifications (Important Updates, New Version Updates, Product News)
