Procoding Support Forum

I love to hear from you. If you have a problem or if you like Procoding, please add your voice to the Procoding Forum.

 

Mail & Facebook

You can also get in touch by sending a message to feedback at audiocommander. de (Please remove whitespace and replace the 'at'). There's also a facebook page I'm checking now and then: Procoding on Facebook.

btw:
Please contact me if you have a question or an issue where an answer would be helpful - because there is no way of getting in touch when you only leave a review on the App Store. Of course I am very happy about every positive review on the App Store! They help keeping up the good spirits while I'm working on the next update (^_^)
