Unsupported Software
The following software I had authored/created, developed and maintained for other composers in-kind, but I am unable to continue this. For example, changes to Mac's processing architecture (i.e. the Apple silicon M1), changes in the protocol version of the Decibel Scoreplayer, and at times changes to the music scores themselves require this software to undergo ongoing maintenance. If you wish to run this software on a newer system, and the last update was from some time ago, there is a likelihood the patcher files require some changes. Feel free to use this software, and change it as you need, provided you acknowledge me.
Cat Hope's Speechless (2019) - this software is a custom-built multi-instrument and cue-system for the Adelaide and Perth performances of Speechless. The software runs in Cycling74's Max, and was developed by drawing on some of my own composition and performance practices which tend to often focus on the creation of customised instruments. Beware some of the audio cues are loud or volatile (for example, cue 29 MICROPHONE FEEDBACK).

Cat Hope's Their Lives Are Stripped of Meaning (2018) - this software I developed in Cycling74's Max for the electronics component of this score. The software has been designed to chase-sync over a network with the DSZ score as it scrolls in the Decibel ScorePlayer application. The software was also designed to remove the need for an 'electronics operator', automating the cues throughout. This latest version was tested on a Mac M2 and requires both Max packages Zero and ODOT to operate as required.

Cat Hope's The Post-Truth Pleasure Garden (2018) - this software I developed in Cycling74's Max for the electronics component of this score. The software has been designed to chase-sync over a network with the DSZ score as it scrolls in the Decibel ScorePlayer application. The software was also designed to remove the need for an 'electronics operator', automating the cues throughout. This latest version was tested on a Mac M2 and requires both Max packages Zero and ODOT to operate as required.

Cat Hope's Kaps Freed (2017) - this software I developed in Cycling74's Max for the electronics component of this score. The software has been designed to chase-sync over a network with the DSZ score as it scrolls in the Decibel ScorePlayer application. The software was also designed to remove the need for an 'electronics operator', automating the cues throughout. This latest version was tested on a Mac M2 and requires both Max packages Zero and ODOT to operate as required. Please use the DSZ score file that is included here to ensure both the performance score and processing are synchronised (please note there are several different versions of the DSZ score where events have different timepoints, and whilst I was able to warp the automation data to suit this version of the DSZ by hacking the clock/tick data, it wasn't easy. Someone else may be keen to go through this exercise again!)

Cat Hope's Sogno 102 (2013) - this software I developed in Cycling74's Max for the electronics component of this score. Operating the electronics involves manually cuing sine tone entries indicated in the DSZ score as it scrolls in the Decibel ScorePlayer application. Originally authored and workshopped between 2nd and 8th December 2013, the last update here is from 10th April 2018.

Cat Hope's The Lowest Drawer (2013) - this software I developed in Cycling74's Max for the electronics component of this score. Operating the electronics involves manually cuing sine tone entries indicated in the DSZ score as it scrolls in the Decibel ScorePlayer application. Originally authored during 2013, the last update here is from 5th March 2021.
