Cannot figure out how to access or export recordings

I tried using the audiocopy app but nothing pastes/exports there from Droneo

Incredible work

This app has been instrumental for me as it does things that I have found no other can , the ability to dial in frequencies no matter how detailed or obscure and create Pythagorean intervals using them. As a sound healer and musician this is gold. I own many apps many synths and none can do this. So …. Please please tell me your working on the follow up to this ? An auv3 capable new version of this wonderful creation.

I would gladly part with good money for your next version of this. New interface and some added features while keeping all you’ve achieved with this. Many thanks from the Mind Orchestra.

Response from developer

Thanks! I've been trying to put together a worthy, less confusing successor to Droneo for many years. It may happen! I use it myself a whole lot. I hope you take advantage of the years and years of sound experiments I've put in the Droneo Voices Repository. If you come up with a good one, you can upload it by exporting it and pasting it with the link on this page, and I may add it to the app's presets. https://jhhl.net/iPhone/Droneo/Voices/

Excellent, unique and deep

I have had Droneo for a number of years and still feel it is revealing it’s depth. Creates an astonishing range of sounds. Respect to Lowengard for such a great app.

Amazing app

Even if you don’t know anything about music and you just want to meditate this is a must app. And if you want to make music this one of the first apps you have to get. Killer app. Please Auv3, I’ll buy it again if you make it Auv3

Awesomest app ever... but iOS 14 broke it!

A tragedy! I hope this is fixed soon...

Edit: Thanks, developer! Works now. Yay, this the best drone synth for the platform by far.

Hi GravyTop! It's working for me on my iOS 14 iPad & iPhone - maybe delete it and try again?

Droneo

Enjoying this app and have used it once or twice within Inter App Audio in AUM, as well as standalone. However it loses stars (plural) for refusing to close and being a battery drain; it remains a drain on battery even after swiping to dismiss it. Only a full restart of the phone or iPad actually stops it.

Fantastic app.

It just does one thing but it does it beautifully. Props also due for the formidable manual as well. All apps should have a manual as good as this one.

Fantastic Just Intonation Ear-Training and Improvisation Tool

For me, Droneo is fantastic for ear-training in just intonation. I also enjoy improvising vocally with the drones.

Thank you for this
beautiful and useful
pedagogical and creative tool.

Please make a version for the iPad or Mac that can alternate more chords and use more consecutive partials/pitches. I would like to expand my improvisation with this tool and create possible foundations for compositions. I would gladly pay $25 or more for such an extended app.

Blessings to you and yours in Jesus Christ,

Fills a great sound generating niche

I put a drone into ApeDelay and got The White Couch Song (by SFXrex, on YouTube if you want to see how great a sound base this is.

Solid Drone Source

Droneo lives up to its name and also allows you to process it further in Audiobus to twist it in new directions.
