Textquencer Sequencer & Synth vs Magnio

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.

Where magnetism meets melody. Magnio turns the iPhone already in your hand into a living instrument. Held sideways like a game controller, it answers to your hands: touch the screen to wake the sound, then tilt, swipe, and push to give the music its shape. PLAY WITH MOVEMENT • Tilt the phone up and down to move through notes. • Flick your playing thumb sideways to bend a note into its neighbour. • Push the phone away from its centre to open the sound. CATCH THE VIBE Tap Vibe and Magnio listens to the room. Within seconds it finds the key of whatever is playing — a record, a jam, a friend at the piano — and tunes itself to it. Your very first note already belongs. No theory, no menus, no guessing what key you are in. BUILD A PULSE Choose a scale and octave. Add bass, arp, kick, and offbeat hat. Shape two-bar patterns, tap the tempo, and let sidechain make the sound breathe. RECORD AND SHARE One round button records what Magnio itself is playing — never the microphone, never the room. Recordings are named by date, and you can rename, play, share, or delete them from the list. MAKE IT YOURS Choose right- or left-handed playing; the whole instrument turns with you, so you simply flip the phone. Calibrate each gesture, tune the response, and arrange your performance surface — place the controls where your thumb wants them. GO FURTHER WHEN YOU WANT Play Magnio's own voice, send MIDI to another app on your iPhone, connect to a Mac over USB, or use BLE MIDI with a compatible Mac or iPad app. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No analytics. No tracking. Vibe listens on device; audio is never saved or uploaded. Your settings stay on your device. Magnio is free. Every sound, gesture, and MIDI route is available. There are no subscriptions and no in-app purchases. The instrument was already with you. Now play it.
