Text Sequencer Tutorial in #touchdesigner

Hi and welcome to my second ever tutorial on TouchDesigner!

Today I’ll cover how to build a custom sequencer that analyses letters and outputs a trigger to an instrument if the condition is met.

With this logic you can build a wide variety of sequencers and use them to control visrtual or external instruments.

Showing how to output external midi was out of the scope of this video but let me know if you’d like a tutorial on that πŸ™‚

Please send me if you ever do something with this tutorial I’m curious!
