HI all,
I'm just back from a series of trips and will try to respond to some of the
pile-up of undealt-with messages in the Pd list..
I'm struggling with the score-following issue as well. Dannenberg's patent
expires in
a year, and at teh moment the easiest thing to do might be just to
wait. While at IRCAM, before the Dannenberg patent came out but after his
paper, I worked out a fairly powerful score follower, using his ideas and
some of my own, which I'm eager to put in other peoples' hands now.
cheers
Miller
