<h1>Patroneo</h1>
<p>Patroneo (which is Esperanto for &ldquo;Pattern&rdquo;) is an easy to use pattern based midi sequencer that
handles the three most important musical parameters: pitch, rhythm and dynamics.</p>
<p>Patroneo is primarily designed for educational purposes, where the main goal is to teach the
importance of patterns and repetitions in any kind of music. However, Patroneo is a full sequencer
you can use to create real music. The constraints it presents will more likely boost your
creativity than suppressing it.</p>
<p>Workflow summary: You have tracks with one pattern each. Turn on steps in the pattern to play
musical notes. Switch the patterns on and off in a sequence to create a song structure.
Connect external synthesizers and samplers to create sounds.</p>
<p>This README is just a short introduction. Consult the manual (see below) for more information.</p>

<p>If the latest release is not available through your package manger you can build it yourself:
Download the latest code release on https://www.laborejo.org/downloads and extract it.</p>

<h3>Git Version</h3>
<p>It is possible to clone a git repository.
<code>git clone --depth 1 --recurse-submodules git://laborejo.org:65423/patroneo.git</code>
If you want to update at a later date you must use
<code>git pull --recurse-submodules</code></p>

<h2>Starting through the Non Session Manager after installation (recommended)</h2>
<p>Starting Patroneo through the Non Session Manager after you installed patroneo system-wide
is the recommended and only supported way. Start non-session-manager and load or create a new
session. Then use the button &ldquo;Add Client to Session&rdquo; and type in patroneo.
It should appear with an icon in the list and open its GUI.</p>
<a name="Starting-through-NSM-without-building--2f--installation"></a>
<h2>Starting through NSM without building / installation</h2>
<p>Starting Patroneo through the Non Session Manager is possible without building or installation.
So you don&rsquo;t need to call the steps avobe (configure, make, make install)</p>
<p>The developer uses this way to develop the software, so it will always be stable and supported.
But it is a bit less performant than building and installing it.</p>
<p>After extracting the release archive create a symlink from <code>patroneo</code> into your PATH. e.g. /usr/bin
or ~/bin, if that exists on your system.</p>
<p>This mode needs calfbox to be installed systemwide. Please consult https://github.com/kfoltman/calfbox</p>
<a name="Starting-without-Non-Session-Manager"></a>
<h2>Starting without Non Session Manager</h2>
<p>You need to start patroneo from a terminal (or create a starter script).</p>
<p><code>patroneo --save DIRECTORY</code></p>
<p>Uses the given directory to save. The dir will be created or loaded from if already present. Use
the applications file menu to save (Ctrl+s).</p>
<p>You can use this to load and save the files from an existing NSM session. If you create a new
directory you can copy it manually to an NSM session directory, but that requires renaming the
directory to append the unique ID provided by NSM.</p>
<p>Closing through your window manager in this mode will actually quit the application without a
prompt to save changes.</p>
<p>It is possible to set /dev/null as save path, or any other nonsense path. The program will start but
you won&rsquo;t be able to save.</p>
