Thank you... your comment was very inspiring :). I'm considering to add a way to download the MIDI file, that's very low effort and would be of some use in the short-term.

Yeah that would be amazing. I am litterally working on a song where I would love to play around with ryhtm a little bit. As I do a pretty good human beat box I woule love to be able to explore a couple of things there.

As I said. I would buy it and I would probably turn it into a hosted service if I were you as you probably need the cloud to do some of the computation?

Anyway. If anything else I think it would have a future as a plugin or service. And for a lot of novice music enthusiasts it would be a great little ipad/tablet app.

We had an app on the appstore for a while, but it was a prototype and a different use case. The idea was to let the user create loops — you can see an example here https://www.dropbox.com/s/03q02cdllsry2az/musiqueness.mov?dl....

However, we thought we would need much more work to make a real product, and we stopped working on it.

I'm really considering making a webapp for a simpler use case as you suggest.

Yeah that app needs work like quantization both for rythm and scales and so on. It could be a really powerfull tool I think.

Make a webapp at least, allow me to export some useful format for logic.

Then you can work on other ways to use the voice to inform the sounds and other things. As I said. Think about it like VocoderMidi instrument/sequenzer. Something really useful can come out of that IMO.
