BeepStreet Drambo
This article is about an app and AUv3 that is currently (March 2020) still in development and not yet released. There has been a great deal of interest in it since it was first announced. In recent months a number of videos have been posted demonstrating its many features. Don’t ask WHEN it will be shipped as its large and growing feature set has made completion impossible to predict. Spring 2020 is the current best guess.
Note: the name may be subject to change.
Drambo is a sequencer and easy-to-use modular synth with user sample support.
App type: App and AUv3
App store link: NONE! This software is still in development.
Developer: Beep Street
