Polymeter 0.0.09 adds live performance view, inter-track modulation

Polymeter 0.0.09 adds a live performance view, along with the ability to group tracks into parts, in order to simplify the interface. With this addition, the port is mostly complete. All of the three separate DOS programs that comprised the original software are now combined into a single Windows application: Bongo became Track view, Stencil became Song view, and Jock became Live view.

Polymeter 0.0.09 also adds inter-track modulation, an essential feature that allows a track in one meter to mute and unmute one or more tracks in other meters. Unlike the original software, which only supported mute modulation, the new sofware also supports note, velocity, and duration modulation. In note modulation, one track offsets another track's note values; velocity and duration modulation work similarly.

Polymeter 0.0.08 added presets, which let you save and restore the state of all the track mutes. This is very helpful for transitioning seamlessly between the sections of a song during a live performance.
