[PD] rjdj is gone, robotcowboy is coming ...

[Dan Wilcox]

Sorry, I should have clarified.

RjDj the entity is going great.

RjDj the original iOS app, is no longer being supported and is now no longer availabel on the App Store. From the RjDj blog:

> In all these years, RjDj grew out of this app and really became something different. RjDj became a new way how to think music, it became a brand. This development is something we want to enforce which is the reason why we are now positioning everything for our future.
> 
> As a first step we are cleaning up our "old" apps which also means that we are retiring the good old RjDj app. Don't be sad, we are working on some great new content released through "The Dark Knight Rises Z+" app and we are also working on the exciting "Music Zones" project which we are currently test driving in the UK app store.
> 
> So starting from next week, we won't make the app available in the app store anymore, so if you are a nostalgic app collector, this is your last chance to get it. You will still be able to use the installed app but we won't be supporting it any longer. This means that you won't be able to upload recordings or download scenes. On October 8th we will also change our website.


I was directly inspired by RjDj to in making a similar app and thanks to Peter, et al. libpd makes it possible. I have used RjDj for a number of small experiments and are sad to see it go, but in the end I needed something that works more for my needs, so I've been working towards making my own app.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. This app is being built in OpenFrameworks, so it works on Mac/Win/Lin & iOS. Android support could be added, but I don't have an android device.
