How to control Drambo as AUv3 from the host?
I want to control parameters of my choice from my AUv3 host (Loopy Pro). Other plugins expose parameters for that to the host but Drambo doesn't. MIDI mapping with a virtual MIDI bus could work but it's more of a dirty hack. How am I supposed to do that?

Sorry, you can't. Drambo doesn't expose any AUv3 Parameters. That's kind of challenging conceptually in a modular environment where you don't have fixed oscillators, filters, etc. like you do with synths and FX. miRack handles that abstraction fairly nicely though. Hopefully Drambo will have a similar system at some point.
You have to use midi mapping. I don't think of that as a dirty hack. MIDI CC automation has been a standard method for more than four decades.

I control Drambo and pick presets from loopy. Yeah the midi cc is a little bit of work to setup but it works great. Also think absolote cc or whatever the two way communication between the knobs reflecting values changed in Drambo is coming in an update
