If you want to, you can modify it yourself and add in things like different colours, default music systems, or even ratio mode instead of even temperment. I’m perfectly happy with that. You can even use it to teach yourself or other people how to program in javascript , or how to program a very basic synth. You can even use just the part that has an implementation of conway’s game of life.
I don’t consent to you making money off it. If anyone is going to make the pittance that this code would make, I want it to be me.

I have to actually see you use it in your DJ software/machine. Let’s say you have a mechanism in your DJ software that seems to somehow have a 16 * 16 grid, conway’s game of life and an interface that’s very similar. I can start pursuing legal action if I believe you’re making gains off it. The more money someone makes off it, the more likely it becomes, since courts aren’t free, international laws, etc etc. You’d also get reputational damage, especially if you’re a smaller company
Just to add a concrete example/plug:
I made the microtonal music grid : https://newdawnowl.itch.io/microtonal-grid
Its source code is open, you can see it here : https://github.com/MicrotonalGrid/MicrotonalGrid

I want credit, and I don’t want you to make money off it.
So you use a license to specify how you want people to treat you and your code, and threaten legal action if that desire is abused.
Thank you for the clarification. So you basically work with music on your computer ??
Suppose l make a DJ software/machine using your code, and then make it a tool to make some money, would you still sue me in a court ??
I am so awesome at self promotion that I put the source code twice, and the actual usable version 0 times. Here’s the link : https://newdawnowl.itch.io/microtonal-grid
