i have garageband 3 on my macbook and every time i use this it either shuts off all the sound on my comp and makes little popping noises or makes the freakoutomgimhavingafuckingseizurescarethehellouttamycats

I’m having the same issue with it only coming through the left channel of my speakers/headphones. Strangely enough when effects like phasing or reverb are applied to it, the effects (but not the sound itself) will play through both channels. I really loved seeing this plug in used and I hope they fix this.

BTW: I’m running on an intel Mac with Leopard and Ableton 7.

I’m getting the multiple instance freakout also. The best workaround, I’d say, is to bounce/export the MIDI track as audio and use that .WAV/.AIFF as a sample in an audio track.

It’s a pain, but at least we finally have a chiptune AU on OS X.
