Difficult to go through/try different amps

Could you make it easier to swap Amps please? The way it works now is you tap and hold then the amplifier selection pops up, and there you have to scroll to find the amp you’re using (it doesn’t remember position and always starts from the top of the list) and then select a next one. And as soon as you select it, the selection window closes. So you have to repeat the whole procedure. Double-tap would be better than tap and hold (but I can wait), but the whole window closing after you make the selection that’s just horrible user experience. Am I supposed to remember how each amp sounds, I mean there are like 70 of them, that’s just not realistic. And then tap-and-wait, and scroll again to select next... Please make it so the Amplifier selection remains open, and we can just try different amps till we find the right tone. Thanks!

The price is listed as being $4.99 and the in app purchase of the complete plugin bundle at $19.99. I purchased the app and was charged $9.99 and the in app purchase was actually $59.99!
A few bugs that will probably be resolved down the line.. but a 5 star for sure.

Certain modules bug the AU, Like the ABY module. Every time I use it my AU instance of this crashes. It also starts showing there’s a bug since the order of the connections is not the same after moving ABY around on the top panel as it is on the bottom pannel. Great app thanks for the wonderful work! PS:.... definitely NOT a 2 star app. Some people expect TOO much for too little. This app is brilliant and if you had to pick one app for guitar this would probably be it (unless you can afford the substantially more expensive TH-U Full and even then there are many things I prefer about ToneStack PRO). Definitely a must have for guitar players that use AUs.
Awesome and stable

I got the in-app purchase too and love the flexibility! It would be cool if roxsyn could be integrated into the chain, but AUM makes it easy enough to do.
Frequent crashes,

I have several complaints about this app. 1. This app crashes frequently when I’m using it in AUM, which is obviously a big problem that renders this app completely worthless to me for its purpose. No other guitar amp sims experience this issue. (2017 iPad Pro) 2. The app cannot be loaded into an audio/midi source slot in AUM. What?! Why not?! My audio interface isn’t detected as a mic, but just ‘usb out’, however that was never an issue with tonestack 3! In fact, the workaround to fix this was: load tonestack 3, turn off all effects/amp sims, then load tonestack pro as an effect for tonestack 3. What a waste of time and resources. This convoluted process can only be described as the modern day equivalent of blowing into a Nintendo cartridge. 3. Speaking of tonestack 3, that brings me to my last and most annoying complaint (only most annoying because I’m sure you can fix the other issues with an update I guess, even tho a broken app is unacceptable) All the effects are the same and I have to buy them again?! I already paid for the ‘motherload’ in-app purchase for every single effect in ts3. Now, in order to use auv3 features, I need to unload my wallet for everything again? I would have paid for an upgrade to tonestack 3 to add auv3 features. But not $70. Other developers have figured out bundle options for app upgrades when they announce new “upgraded versions” of the same thing. I also don’t have time to ‘watch for sale prices’ on the App Store so please save me that discourse about the ‘introductory pricing’. As someone who already had spent money on these effects already and has used them loyally for years, I was hoping for better than a broken app with an enormous price of (re)admission. Sorry for the bad review. Please fix.
update??

Come on guys, an update please, as an auv3 it dows not recieve MIDI from sources in AUM, nor from virtuall inputs, so it cannot recieve clock information, so any time based fx like delay and so can’t be synchronized to tempo, ableton link would be nice or something, no updates since it came out is no good, love your apps but no one takes care of them after they come out, it is a shame
