Textquencer is a text-based MIDI sequencer. 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 create custom character mapping for emojis, punctuation, symbols or any letters in any language. A custom character can mapped to - A specific MIDI note or, - A specific note in the scale like the first note in the scale, the third note in the scale etc. Unless a character is custom mapped, a letter in English alphabet or a number, it will be a rest in the sequencer. Also, you can randomise the velocity and gate lengths in each step if you want, You can enable it on the settings menu and set a randomization min-max range. Please note that Textquencer is a MIDI app. The standalone version has an optional internal synth where you can enable or disable on the settings menu. The AUv3 plugin requires an audio app for output. For the AUv3 functionality, it needs to be hosted within an app such as AUM, Loopy Pro, Cubasis, Logic Pro, Nanostudio, Drambo, or apeMatrix.

Compositor NTP is a single solution for metronome and Ethernet education. It is a real-time device, which uses physical modeling as a source for NTP synchronous signal. Using the iOS version you can transform your iPhone into rhythm modeling station. You can adjust parameters visible on the screen using menus, dials and virtual keyboard. All of the dials smoothly interpolate for click-free performance. Compositor NTP is your entry point into the world of Ethernet communications. It dynamically updates the sound engine in accordance to IP address settings for three loopback channels. - Compositor NTP is an instrument that uses upper-level C++ programming, which makes it available as a pure 64-bit DSP application - First ever musical metronome with odometry - Convenient tempo and tone control - Natal chart of Constellations and month year cycle - Simulation of Solar System objects - Audio loopback and packet simulation - Telescope style control over reverberation channel
