I tried out various online tools to convert different field recordings into text and ended up using https://editor.flixier.com/transcribe/ - because it was the only one that worked on any of the recordings. I also tried audio > video > YouTube but YouTube failed to caption the videos.

I used an echoey recording of a recent visit to a cathedral which translated into nonsensical text (in German) but unfortunately no descriptions like [noise] or the like. I did not find a way to read a score or musical instruction into the text so I used text to speech - including the time stamps to translate the text back into audio. Because it is a rainy day, I turned this into a house track, sort of.
