[Released] Textquencer - Text based AUv3 MIDI Sequencer
Hi everyone, I released my new app Textquencer and I'm very excited about it!
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/textquencer-auv3-midi/id1661316322
It basically converts the text to MIDI notes and can sequence anything like Tweets, lyrics, quotes, articles or random/gibberish key strokes 
How it works?
Each letter's alphabetical index is mapped to the note in the scale you are working. For example in C-major scale,
Letter A (index = 1) is Note C (first note in the scale)
Letter B (index = 2) is Note D (second note in the scale)
Letter C (index = 3) is Note E (third note in the scale)
Letter H (index = 8) is Note C but an octave higher
and so on.
You can also create your custom mappings for the emojis or the weird letters in the European languages like ö, ç, å, è.
It's a very simple yet very fun and addictive app. You can create very interesting sequences just by pasting random stuff from the internet
Comments
As a fan of all things random and synchronicities, very interested to see this one.
BTW forgot to add;
MIDIriff does this too, but it seems to have vanished from store.
Wotja does it too.
Cool! Is it possible to do custom mappings for English letters or phrases. For example, using C#2 to match the exact note value with its corresponding octave. This could be another way to easily type out specific notes.
This looks fun, Caps should be accents lol
Just posted first fruits of a go with the beta on Creations if anyone is interested…

Great, do you have link to creation please?
@cem_olcay any plans to add a mode for ABC notation?
https://abcnotation.com/
Or an option to map all letters - not just the "special" ones, so one could create a mapping similar to ABC ?
@cokomairena That's a great idea!
A midi learn button for the custom mapping would be nice. The ability to drag to reorder them would also be useful. It would also be nice if I could collapse an entry, to make the list easier to navigate if I'm using 26 letters, 10 numbers, etc. But regardless, I'm happy to have custom mapping.
I'm finding that scatting can lead to some very musical results.
Here's my first sequence. It sounds best in a major key:
Bee bap badadadabee zah zazay de
Never heard of this, but this would be perfect.
Here's my first go at using Textquencer

An excerpt from A Christmas Carol.
Textquencer driving the MIDI to Megalit and DRC
43 BPM. Because it was published in 1843
stone, Scrooge! a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous, old sinner! Hard and sharp as flint, from which no steel had ever struck out generous fire; secret, and self-contained, and solitary as an oyster. The cold within him froze his old features, nipped his pointed nose, shrivelled his cheek, stiffened his gait; made his eyes red, his thin lips blue; and spoke out shrewdly in his grating voice. A frosty rime was on his head, and on his eyebrows, and his wiry chin. He carried his own low temperature always about with him; he iced his office in the dog-days
Now that’s how you make background music for audiobooks! 👍
I add this to the new build, it's even better now lmao
You can enable the "Accent capitalised letters" option on the settings menu.
Now we just need a decoder to read the music messages from audio lol
Had fun sending sending some great Robbie Burns poems through Textquencer.

What about adding multiple playheads 🤭 or I can just open two instances…
How about MIDI export?
Would provide the right background for Tam O’Shanter - my personal favourite.
Man, guess I wasn't cool enough to be on the beta 😢.
Is there a character count or some way to know how long a sequence is?
I sent you the invitation, don’t you receive it?
Ahh... Spam!
I am cool!
Thank you ☺
Spam is cool!
How’s your experience with textquencer, are you enjoying it, any bugs or issues? I’m going to submit the app if there’s no major issues.
Hi @cem_olcay : I’m loving it! Works fine as is for me, the caps equals accent idea is a good one. A way of inserting rests might be good - dashes, I.e. “-“ as rests, locked to the current resolution, so you could choose to insert as many dashes into a sentence as you wanted the line to pause, maybe? I don’t need any more control than that. ( if I want midi from it I’ll record it in Atom.) The happy accident factor is high.
It seems really quite fun and flexible to play with so far, maybe some play modes, forward/backwards/random could be useful? some of the other settings (gate length, randomise velocities) being exposed in the interface rather than just as MIDI controls or in the settings page could be good too, I only just spotted them while seeing if forwards/backwards was implemented there…
No. It’s not.
So far, everything perfect here
Tried multiple hosts
Spaces are rests already, right?
Or are you thinking of an additional option?
@senhorlampada : Aha! This is why I am a bad beta tester. I did not notice that
In fact, I just noticed this when I put shorter text, going for Berlin School style sequence
