Soundart has announced a significant price reduction on their multi-purpose rackmount DSP unit. For end users there is a saving of 200 Euros - the price has changed worldwide from 795 Euros to only 595 Euros. Developers also benefit, receiving a savings of 100 Euros with the new price of 495 Euros.

The Chameleon is housed in a 1U rack, offering the same Motorola DSP processing power found in many brands of audio hardware, along with 2 x 24bit I/O A/D D/A converters and MIDI I/O. Low-level Soundart code allows it to effectively function as a "blank canvas" for developers to use how they please. End-users load "soundskins" via MIDI and the Chameleon instantly becomes a completely different tool.

Soundart currently offers eight different "soundskins" for the chameleon, transforming it into a virtual analog synth, stereo reverb processor, vocoder/filterbank, multi-fx, and more. The company also plans on releasing additional skins for free.

The current skins to date include:

AUSTRALIS - virtual analog polysynth skin.
CHROMASONIC - workhorse multi FX skin.
AMP-O-MATIC - amp-modeller skin.
INFILTRATOR - monster vocoder and filterbank FX skin.
FAHRENHEIT - dance music production skin.
FX DESIGNER - delay-based FX skin from Spin Audio.
MONOWAVE II - unique open-source fat monosynth DSP project.
ROOMVERB M1 - high quality true-stereo studio reverb skin
