Not Auv3 but…

…or preset saving built-in(outside of copy/pasting save codes)but I think thats the point. I skimmed the description saw Auv3 listed then later re-red when I opened AUM and didnt see it noticed its NOT Auv3 which would have been a deal breaker for me but overall it’s very great droning app with nice randomization features, look and sound. If you’re into droning out this is def an app for you. If you’re like me and mainly use AUM when doing anything musical via your iPad then don’t skim description like I did foolishly but still a 5 star app if not being an Auv3 isnt an issue for you. Maybe one day it will go Auv3 and I can live a happy fulfilling life droning out in my lab until the… blah blah blah the end… Support independent developers and Gavinski Tutorials…

Thanks for the kind review. Yes, it's a different take, an odd one in the world of hypermodular music making environment but it's designed to be exactly this way. Letting go of a conventional interface, labels, precise sequencers and surgical eqs. I hope you enjoy using it. Safe travels!

*slow exhale* ...WOW

...this app has far exceeded my expectations. immediately resonating with its concept, as and someone [with ADHD] who consistently has been on the prowl for a "meditative" app that checks all the boxes: a relaxing experience, while in combination with a separate offset of dynamic enticement—it felt near impossible to visualize what that would look like, or if even possible in one singular app. well... i've found that personal sanctuary, and it's entitled DRONAGE.

referencing back to its core concept, which, respecting said concept be the entire basis of what allows for it to successfully execute its intended experience. this being, that it is NOT [by definition] an app aimed at a musician to produce music; instead, quite the opposite, as it serves as a reminder that not every passing moment needs to be captured or utilized. in this ever-advancing technological age where chaos flourishes, whereby the solution oftentimes is to eventually coexist alongside it: through ignorance, denial, acceptance... it embodies a humble safehaven that demands nothing from you, reinforces zero temptation by design, while yet providing an opportunity to creatively express yourself—to yourself. ebb and flow.

on the more technical, less abstract side of things... the one hangup i had originally is likely to be a shared one: "but how is the sound quality?," knowing it self-identifies as an audial playground, foregoing any obligation of having to meet the standards required for musicians to produce HQ tracks... well, rest assured: the headphones melted from my ears. its beauty dives the depths far beyond surface level. an outstanding sound quality with limitless possibilities. you can tinker around knob by knob within knob bypass knob to achieve raw sound experimentation, or, if so chosen, smack the randomize feature and drift away in your thought-waves. it is what you make of it.

...i don't believe i've ever reviewed an app in such length (or passion), but i hope it provides the assurance necessary for any individuals contemplating if this be their next purchase. TREAT YOURSELF but not for that artery clogger or tossaway graphic tee. ENRICH YOURSELF by, instead, allowing yourself limitless access to the DRONAGE experience—a thoughtful, brilliantly executed project by an independent artist/collective (10/10 dev support BTW) whose creation could enrich the lives of many, in which every contribution only allows the potential for future releases of equal integrity and craftsmanship.

so... yeah. just... do it... alright? yeah?? ok! 🫵👀📲🦆

Thank you so much. I'm glad that the unique experience of DRONAGE (which forces you to look into its eyes and nowhere else) resonated with you!
