Audiobus: Use your music apps together.
What is Audiobus? — Audiobus is an award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you use your other music apps together. Chain effects on your favourite synth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app like GarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface output for each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive a synth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDI keyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear. And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.

Time for some more chaos
Inspired by ... you know what, here's a somewhat chaotic oscillator that may serve as a basis for building a more complete synth. It's far from a precise physical model but give it a listen.
For a start, set the audio buffer to 1024 (in Drambo standalone) and make sure you enable the scene button left to the crossfader, then select preset pads A to M and get distracted.
Someone might pick it up and build a complete synth from it.

Nice. Chaos oscillators. What does it sound like? Demo... demo... demo...
1st demo gets a cookie.
I love cookies 😋😋
I've got it working after pressing that "A" button to the left of the crossfader.
I forgot to change the settings buffer to 1024. But it does make a nice "Chaos
Companion"... I think I'll pump it through Perforator and drop a demo on the @iOSTRAKON
thread to show I can deliver some Sonic Mayhem too.
Is there a way to have Drambo change Perforator's settings with Pad changes?
Or any other useful apps for this type of sound source? I'm sure there are Drambo
modules that could be added to the signal path too to add rhythmic possibilities to the
Chaos.

Bring it!
I’ve only used 1 drambo preset since it dropped. I need to explore everyone’s work. Any recommendations @McD / @rs2000 ?
@McD I've looked up perforator and yes, it would be very easy to add this functionality to the Drambo project. Good idea actually, I think I'm gonna do that, powered by your motivating cookies, hmmm. 😋
@iOSTRAKON You name it! There is a huge pool of Drambo projects on

In fact, so many that it would help if you gave me a little hint about what you're looking for.
Industrial chaos
@rs2000 took on the challenge of crafting a Rat Distortion Pedal emulation and pushed the sonic potential of Drambo as an FX unit to 11:
The RAT distortion V0.7

Start with the volume turned down.
Update: Now including a rhythmic effect for volume, low pass and high pass filtering plus envelope controls. Tap on each sequencer pattern to edit in detail.

@iOSTRAKON Is that industrial enough? 😅
Nice work. It makes some great drumming sequences and 3 copies at once is fun.
This thread need more love.
