Drambo

Modular groovebox

Published by: Jaroslaw Jacek

Description

Drambo is your all-in-one sound laboratory that adapts to your workflow: build beats as a groovebox, design synths, or transform audio with effects — standalone or inside your favorite DAW.
At the core of Drambo is a fresh approach to modular design that makes creating with modules easy, fun, and accessible. Connections happen automatically as you add or move modules, so there are no messy cables to slow you down. The interface adapts to your workflow, generating modulation controls when you need them, and even lets modules contain other modules for perfect organization. You’re always free to override the automatic connections — but most of the time, you can just dive in, experiment, and shape sounds without getting tangled in wires.
Use a deep and innovative sequencer to compose patterns and whole tracks, for production or live performance. Go beyond simple looping sequences with parameter locking, conditional step components, parameters automation and powerful scene morphing. Drambo works equally well as a self-contained standalone app or audio unit plugin with audio and MIDI connectivity as an AUV3 instrument, audio effect and MIDI effect. No modular experience necessary to get started playing with preset sounds and effects.

You can use Drambo as
• A complete music production and performance environment
• Endless modular playground, that allows you to build, modify and store custom instruments and effects. For instance: build a custom synth, sample and resample, build a Theremin using a gyroscope module, or turn your table into a playable surface, by processing microphone input with physical modelling modules. Get weird or make functional instruments and tools.
• MIDI sequencer, that works with hardware and AUv3 instruments (e.g. Drambo sequences other instruments in an AU host app). Moreover Drambo can generate custom MIDI CC messages or modulation signals to control modular synths via DC coupled interfaces.
• AUv3 synthesizer, effect or sequencer in other DAWs. Drambo can replace a lot of audio plugins. For instance: you may use it as a chorus, phaser, reverb, filter, equalizer, complex modular delay, decimator, frequency shifter, MIDI effect or complex modulator for other synths. You may combine, modulate and sequence them in no time.
Features:
• Polyphonic, stereo processing and audio-rate modulation. All signals are equal. Up to 16 voices per modular instrument rack.
• Unique modular concept: cable-less, drag'n'drop, color coding dynamic interface, automatic connections, and customizable compact, rack views.

• Directional flow makes Drambo routing and patching straightforward. Signal flows only left to right, so there are no instant feedback routings in Drambo. Delayed feedback is possible using certain modules.

• Simple and clean interface, that scales to every size and device orientation
• Over 140 modules available, such as: oscillators, samplers, physical modelling modules, LFOs, envelope generators, filters, audio effects, mixers, MIDI processors, sequencers and math functions. (Includes a macro oscillator based on the famous Eurorack Plaits module, with 24 synth engines)
• Custom modular racks that can be nested, with presets at the track, rack, and module level.
• Clip launcher / song arrager.
• 16-tracks, polyphonic sequencer with parameter locks, automation and step components. 8 dedicated step sequence editor types, piano-roll, powerful automation designer with drawing modes and cubic Bezier curves.
• Audio Units hosting ( standalone app only )
• Morph groups: you can morph many parameters using a single slider.
• Available as a standalone app, AUv3 instrument, effect and MIDI effect.
• MIDI, MPE and Ableton Link support
With Drambo, you are in charge. Create the music from your vision to reality.

Stellar app

hyenadepressivecore on

Italy

This is a dream. The power of a very creative sequencer that takes ideas from many other platforms, adds original takes and combines them in a great UI. Plus….a great modular synthesizer!i love the open endedness of it all, using it both standalone and as a multitude of great tools inside AUM…. Sound design heaven!!!! Edit: after some heavy usage i must add that this has become my favourite piece of gear for music production and performance, coupled with an sp404mk2 that acts as audio midi interface,fxbox and recorder…this really is the revolution!

Eccezionale

Renato Petra on

Italy

Finalmente un modulare semplice da connettere e configurare, Con un opzione che permette di far poi collassare i numerosi moduli interconnessi, in un unica finestra, che mostra i parametri più importanti e rende il tutto più intuitivo da usare nelle performance. L'unico limite qui è la fantasia.

CC64 Sustain non funziona

@Leonking on

Italy

L app mi piace molto, ha molte potenzialità e suona bene, ma non capisco perché non è stato implementato correttamente il SUSTAIN CC64. Non tutti suonano col sequencer in offline…. Gli OSC hanno una buona qualità e si possono generare belle sonorità, ma senza la corretta implementazione del SUSTAIN non sono suonabili… Se non verrà sistemato a breve sarò costretto, mio malgrado, a chiedere rimborso… peccato perché mi piace tanto….

As much or as little as you want it to be.

You can build synths, samplers, groove boxes effects, whatever you like and important,y they sound GOOD. If you don’t wanna build anything yourself you can download other people’s creations from the patch storage site. I held off from this for so long and now I realize how stupid I was being. Don’t be scared of drambo… dive in…

Peggiorato

Vic da Roma on

Italy

Era un app perfetta poi con l’ultimo aggiornamento hanno aggiunto molte cose interessanti ma l’app è diventata macchinosa,meno intuitiva ed immediata,inoltre non funziona più bene come prima e spesso va riavviata,un vero peccato…

1.0 was great but 2.0 has a serious issue

Alscocco on

Italy

1.0 deserves 5 stars but last update has problems. For live performances I used to switch between tracks using CC midi mapping, but this feature is not working anymore. I actually needed to switch tracks by program changes but this feature was not working even in 1.0. Please consider to fix this (and hopefully add PC midi mapping) Sorry if I write here but links for bug submits are not working.

Strepitosa App

Ionio The Dog on

Italy

Veramente un’app “game changer” per il panorama musicale su iOS.

Crashes after the last update

anazariz123 on

United States

Crashes frequently after the latest update. Deleted all my work-in-progress, 3 times already.

Great app and developer

abacadabarap on

United States

Amazing piece of software here. So deep on it’s own with just the default modules. Once you add in third party apps hosted, and download user custom modules, the depth is unreal. I found the learning curve a bit steep, but worth it. Great job

Maybe the most unique music app for iOS

yellow eyez on

United States

This is an incredibly powerful tool for iOS and macOS. It is a mini DAW (AUv3 host), sequencer, synthesizer, effects processor and more. This is the app that really made me interested in iOS as a music making platform. Although it takes a little bit to really appreciate its full complexities, it is worth learning. It is an essential iOS music making app.
