Hi Dudley.

I spent more than 10 years working on this, basically giving it away for musicians who want to use it, and at no profit for me. I would like at some point to be able to get some return on the time, and it seems to me that the only option is to try to protect the source code.

Regarding your comments:

- the objects were "entagled" with jmmmp/jp.garble

- I "might" have added some hundreds of non-useful objects to some subpatches just to annoy anyone who tries to clean it up

- none of these are failsafe, but I only know how to program in Pd, so it's the only protection I could think of.

If you're interested in how the Click Tracker works etc., I would suggest to have a look at the paper I presented some years ago https://www.uni-weimar.de/kunst-und-gestaltung/wiki/PDCON:Conference/Click_Tracker:_Performance/composition_tool_for_metrically_complex_scores - most of it is still current.

Or to ask me directly. I doubt I will send you the original patch, but I can answer questions in text.

Best,

Joao

May I ask please: If you look at the various pd objects in ClickTracker using CTL-E, why are most of the objects all slammed together in one corner (and consequently all the wires "tangled")?

I like to examine other people's Pd programs to learn more about programming in Pd ... so I once spent two full days completely untangling ClickTracker.

And I discovered this in the main part of the program:

[+ 1]
  |
[+ 3]
  |
[+ 5]
  |
[+ 1]
  |
[+ 3]
  |
[+ 5]
   .
   .
   .
[+  1]
  |
[+ 3]
  |
[+ 5]

Or something lack that, with something like 195 objects (I forget how many) ... and with nothing connected to the first input, and the last output not connecting to anything.

What is that about?

Thanks.

I apologize.  I'm not at all complaining -- it's a great program!

But I'm just totally mystified about why the insides of the program look like this.

Dear list,

 
Version 2.3 of the Click Tracker is out.

This version was generously supported by the Quatuor Bozzini (https://www.quatuorbozzini.ca/), and reflects mainly improvements gained from the perspective of the users.

The new features are divided into 3 categories:
Syntax features:
- added meters with mixed denominators
- added "x Y" command to repeat inputed events
- added fermatas
GUI features:
- new GUI layout
- removed "record" button
- added reset button for pickup bar
GUI features for the application and Max patch:
- added file drop to open a score
- change the window size to scale the contents
- added new control keys g l t u, also combined with shift for reset


As in the previous version, you can use in any of the following ways:
- as an android app (https://bit.ly/click-tracker-mob or https://bit.ly/clicktracker-playstore)
- as a closed desktop app in windows (http://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3Win) or apple (http://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3Apple)

Due to Apple's recent security settings, you'll need to allow the Pd and other externals to run on your system.
WARNING: M1 users will need to run the program with Rosetta.

- as the traditional Pure Data patch (https://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3)
- as a Max/MSP patch in windows (http://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3MaxWin) or apple (http://bit.ly/ClickTracker2-3MaxApple)

For more information, refer to the Click Tracker's website at http://j.mp/click-tracker.
 
You can also visit the Click Tracker on facebook - http://j.mp/clicktrackerfb, or check out the click track library in http://jmmmp.github.io/clicktracker/index-library.
 
With best regards,
 
João Pais
