Pd-l2ork version 2.17.0 (-rev.)

Pd is a real-time, graphical programming language for media processing created by Miller S. Puckette. It provides an environment for audio analysis, synthesis, and processing, with a rich set of multimedia capabilities. You can get Pd for Linux, Windows, MacOS X, BSD, or IRIX.

Pd-l2ork is a version of Pd based on Hans-Christoph Steiner's Pd-extended which features many bugfixes and enhancements, especially in the user interface. Pd-l2ork was created by Ivica Ico Bukvic and is maintained by a team of volunteers including Jonathan Wilkes who ported it to the Mac and Windows. It is available for Linux, Windows and MacOS X.
