Camel Audio is no longer with us but their Alchemy synth is back as an integral port of Logic Pro X - just updated to version 10.2. Apple says that Alchemy, a sample-manipulation synthesizer, is the most powerful instrument in Logic Pro X.

A spokesperson said, "Alchemy comes with an enormous library of over 3000 sounds and a keyword browser to quickly zero in on what you're looking for. Powerful Performance Controls invite you to explore and play with the sounds you choose. Alchemy is a monster of a synth with multiple sound-generating engines, including additive, spectral, formant, granular, and virtual analog. It's also a robust sampler that can import EXS24 instruments. Groundbreaking morphing and resynthesis features let you manipulate and combine samples in extraordinary new ways. And the vast number of filters, modulation routes, arpeggiation options, and effects makes for limitless possibilities."
