Click Tracker

Tracker is a program designed for composers, conductors and
instrumentalists working with modern music. Prepare a click track of any
score, no matter how complex it is.

This software runs under the open source program Pure Data,
and can be used either by conductors in concert, by musicians for
practice purposes, by composers while composing — or just to produce and
record a click track to be played back at a later point.

To prepare a score, just input the values in a plain text file format (.txt) according to the syntax explained in the tutorial online, or sent with the patch.

SuperCollider 3.4.2, released

Hi all –

SuperCollider 3.4.2, released March 2011, is a bugfix release.

Mac OSX downloads:

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/supercollider/files/Mac%20OS%20X/3.4.2/
Source code downloads:

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/supercollider/files/Source/3.4.2/

Since SuperCollider 3.4, we’ve found and fixed quite a few bugs –

including an important “garbage collection” problem which could cause

the language to crash in some rare instances, and a cleanup of the

regular-expression methods. We recommend users of 3.4 to upgrade to

3.4.2.

Jamoma is an open-source project for the development of audio/video applications, plugins and Max/MSP-like environments. It offers many C++ frameworks for structured programming and is based on modular principles that allow the reuse of functionalities where all parameters remain customizable to specific needs.

Jamoma is in development for more than five years and is used for teaching and research within science and the arts. It has provided a performance framework for composition, audio/visual performances, theater and installation gallery settings. It has been also used for scientific research in the fields of psychoacoustics, music perception and cognition, machine learning, human computer interaction and medical research (see also http://redmine.jamoma.org/projects/jamoma/wiki/Research_Projects_Using_Jamoma).
