Drambo for Negative User Reviews

✓ Seems to be unsupportedNo updates in a year and very glitchy. Audio fails when you switch in and out of the app. Sometimes when you mute and unmute. Instrument presets don’t seem to play. Restarting app may get it working but it’s just not useful anymore. I enjoyed it when I first was exploring ios music but it seems like it no longer has support. Pressing app support in App Store takes you to a broken link. I would wait until it has more recent updates..DeeYellGeeVersion: 1.40

✓ Love it but....No Ableton link support which to me is a must for any sequencing app! Also there doesn’t seem to be any way to MIDI map any of the controls and it looks like parameters are not exposed to the daw when in auv3 mode or otherwise, another big bummer. Until those two things are fixed I cannot give this more than 3 stars. The synth engine is truly awesome tho..LittldevilVersion: 1.01

✓ The very antithesis of modularI have Eurorack, and thought this might be fun. No, as it turns out. This is the very antithesis of modular. In modular synthesis, every module can be connected to any number of other modules. Here, one module might just possibly connect to the one immediately next to it- but very seldom does, and whatever logic dictating when connection might occasionally occur totally eludes me, despite reading the manual many times. Clearly there are those that get this, and presumably they can make it work. It has totally defeated me. Perhaps the word ‘modular’ could be omitted from the description to save others from making the mistake I did. The app has been deleted without a backward glance- except a rueful wave goodbye to its cost..Rory the BorderVersion: 1.40

✓ Good but audio cuts out every five minutesCan’t really get into this as the audio cuts out after around 5 minutes of the app running .... am I doing something wrong?.DoomtubeVersion: 1.26

✓ Needs an update to fix audio/midi bugSeems like a nice app but every time I use it on my iPad Air 4, the audio stops working. All other apps work fine but even if I close and reopen Drambo it doesn’t play any sound. The only way for me to fix it is to restart my iPad. It doesn’t look like it has been updated for over a year so I’m guessing this is abandomware so I got a refund..Sd3signVersion: 1.40

✓ Still doesn't work on my M1 MacStill doesn't run after atest update, no sound, displays an error on launch. Latest Big Sur OS, latest version of Drambo. Zilch. Developer responded with a couple of suggestions, but none of them worked and they haven't replied since, so obviously doesn't care I have this issue. All my other iOS/Mac compatible apps work without a hitch. Please fix. Update v2.25 - still doesn't open..FamilychoiceVersion: 2.25

✓ Missing a lot of stuffExport audio pitch’s and slows down my recording. No stem export ? flex Sampling needs a lot more work Can we get swing for the sequencer ? Plock is nice but the sequencer is absolute garbage . I’d like to see more with the sequencer and sampling . Midi cc learn? Control external cc? Can we please get multi audio inputs ? Only channels 1 and 2 work right now or some way to change inputs and outputs with our sound card..Mushroom jesusVersion: 1.01

✓ It keeps crashing on meIt’s ok , if it wouldn’t keep crashing on me , it keeps crashing,so I’m not impressed.Lee HantonVersion: 2.22

✓ Not sure why this has such good ratings.I’m beginning to wonder what is supposedly so good about this app, it crashes a lot and most of the presets I’ve downloaded don’t work. Sorry but this is one of the worst apps I’ve come across..Jemmy1955Version: 1.11

✓ Great at start, but now IAP’s??I’ve always been a big fan of BeepStreet’s products and when Drambo was announced, this was really exciting to hear and I purchased the app straight away to take advantage of any early bird discounts as you do. But now BeepStreet are demanding an IAP to unlock their latest module, the Wavetable. Sorry guys, but where is this going? Now every time an exciting new module arrives, we may have to pay for a new update? I guess this may also be a problem for any music app that provides the ‘everything included’ approach, that one is tied in with using that app alone? However good the new module may be, I’m not going to fall for the business model so beloved by PC and Mac developers that that’s either paid updates every year or a monthly subscription. Nah. Developers need to innovate more and not get stuck in a rut of later introducing paid-for extra bolt-ons. Five star app. Two stars for this new IAP nonsense..Tom_tmVersion: 1.27

✓ Is it me?I have to be honest, after all the hype, when this was (finally) released, I was hugely disappointed. I really don’t know what all the fuss is about. I’ve played with it, read the manual, watched YouTube videos and played with it some more. I just don’t get it. In essence, Drambo is a modular drum synth, but it also does a lot of other things. The problem is, it doesn’t do those things better than a dedicated app would. Like all modular environments, there’s a lot of work involved in getting Drambo to do things, when I could just select a dedicated plugin and get on with it. For me, Drambo’s workflow is a creativity killer. To me, Drambo is for people who like tinkering with things as much as (or maybe more than) actually making music. I prefer a less fiddly, more immediate workflow that doesn’t complicate the creative process. MY RESPONSE TO DEVELOPER RESPONSE: Thank you for your reply. I understand how to use the instrument rack presets; though they are tweakable, they are specific and somewhat limited. It’s a bit like working with a synth that’s designed to make just one sound. This can also be frustrating and kill the creative flow. Nobody is more disappointed than I am that I haven’t clicked with Drambo. It wasn’t a cheap app and I’m not flush with money. That doesn’t mean I’ll be seeking a refund. I don’t feel like deserve one as it is not the developer’s fault that I don’t like the app. It isn’t faulty. It just doesn’t suit me..Appassin GreedVersion: 1.22

✓ Add a piano roll sequencer PLEASE!Once you can create loops with a piano roll style sequencer, or use this in AUM/Audiobus as a sequencer, where you can create 'clips' or 'loops' with a piano roll style sequencer and then arrange those clips in an arrangement style sequencer, to where you see a marker or line play through the arrangement, and when it comes to each loop or clip it will play through it, then you can double click or open the clips or loops youve made and edit them from the piano roll sequencer, so basically its like a clip launcher, but you can arrange the clips on a timeline and the song will play through the timeline and when it gets to each clip it launches it, so you can arrange the clips on a timeline, and then you can open the clips and rearrrange them with a piano roll style sequencer.... then it will be 5 stars and it will be the greatest music app ever made ever.Instagram.com/pr4yTheProducerVersion: 1.40

Drambo works most of the time. If it is not working for you, we recommend you excersise some patience and retry later or contact Drambo.
