As Michael Noble mentioned, I really think PdDroidParty could help you here.

Bascially you can make your 4-track recorder in regular old Pd, then copy your 4-track recorder patch to your Android device's sdcard via USB or whatever, start PdDroidParty, et voilà.

I genuinely beleive this is the easiest way to get your Pd patches running on Android.

I am just about to do a new release of PdDroidParty which has a bunch of great stuff like SVG themable Pd widgets, and makes it easier to distribute your patch as a standalone Android app. Will post here when that happens.

Cheers,

Chris.
