Stopped recording after 6 minutes (multiple attempts)

I don’t ever write negative reviews but having a 6-12 minute recording limit (6 min in all my attempts but 12 min max in any situation according to the internet) is ridiculous for an app focused on making DRONE music. These sounds are genuinely good but suited for 30+ plus meditative tracks specifically, so WHY would you do that.

Useful ambient music tool

Great for providing background ambient drones which you can then export as audio to layer other tracks onto. Just lacks integration options so interested in seeing how DroneLab Pro improves on things.

No auv3 or IAA?!?

Great lil drone app, but lacks compatibility. Would be 5 stars if it worked as an auv3 or even IAA. The whole process of having to record/export is a drag, and I would love to apply some wild effects to this thing while tweaking its parameters rather than messing with a static wave file.

AUv3 is what we need

I just purchased it to convince the developer to add AUv3 support. That would make it perfect…
