Check this: universal-flexible machines (even a sick sampler) with a powerful à la elektron sequencer:
ugh.
i’m thinking about buying mac mini M1 just to run Drambo on a desktop…
… as a plugin inside BitWig or Ableton…
(insert ‘mind blown’ meme here)
Can Drambo host AU3 when Drambo itself is hosted in Bitwig or Live?
Yep. But it’s limited to Stand alone functionality. You can’t load in your VSTS and such so didn’t want to suggest it on macOS.
Although FlexiSampler is all you really need 
Thanks for pointing it out 
™
nope.
Drambo is my main app for arranging tracks since i got it.
so i’m happy it delivers me from using conventional DAWs. yes, even Bitwig.
I wasn’t saying you had to use it that way. Drambo is also my main app, along with Ableton, Bitwig, and others.
For anyone who is interested in Microtonic, I’ve been playing with the demo again after a few years and I’ve realised that it can be configured to receive MIDI notes across 8 channels and also to respond to note off. This, in effect, turns it into an 8-track multi-timbral mono synth a bit like a Syntakt.
So that’s rather exciting and adds a ton of value. It can make some really filthy sounds! It can also route each track to separate audio outputs so you can add FX etc.
