Cyclone 0.3 "Release Candidate 1" is out!
by Alexandre Torres Porres 28 Jun '18

28 Jun '18

Find Source, Binaries and more information here: https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases But you can also find these in Pd (Help => Find Externals). We've finished updating [zl], which was the last object to be updated to Max 7! Technically, there are still a couple of other objects that needed updates, but we'll not consider doing them, and this means cyclone 0.3 has finally reached its main goal of updating all objects to Max 7! Hence, after almost 2.5 years we now have a Release Candidate #1 version... HURRAY!!! Please file bug reports in here: https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/issues More about the Cyclone project here: https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/wiki

Context 4.0 now available on Deken
by Liam Goodacre 25 Jun '18

25 Jun '18

Hello patchers Context 4.0 is now available on Deken! This is a milestone release--it's fully documented, more or less stable, and should work "out of the box" with its own externals*. You can download it in Vanilla 0.48.1 by going to Help --> Find Externals and searching for "context". Context is a modular sequencer that re-imagines musical compositions as a networks. It combines traditional step sequencing and timeline playback with non-linear and algorithmic paradigms, all in a small but advanced GUI. Unlike most other sequencing software, Context is not an environment. It is a single object which may be replicated and interconnected to create an environment in the form of a network. There are endless possibilities in creating Context networks, and the user has a great deal of control over how their composition will function. See a short demonstration video here<https://youtu.be/oHnRsi3saXI>. Thanks to everyone on this list who has helped me with Context over the years! And happy patching. Liam * Context is an abstraction which relies heavily on standard external libraries (Cyclone, Zexy, Else, etc.). At the request of many new users, I've included copies of those externals with this release so that it runs "out of the box", but I know that this will cause problems for and probably irritate advanced patchers like yourselves. The easiest way to disable Context's built-in externals is simply to delete the relevant folders from the main Context directory. PD will then proceed to search for them in your regular search directories. There are more details about this in the readme file.

Vector Synthesis library update
by Derek Holzer 21 Jun '18

21 Jun '18

Last night I made a massive update to the Vector Synthesis library. It allows the creation and manipulation of 2D and 3D vector shapes, Lissajous figures, and scan processed image and video inputs using audio signals sent directly to oscilloscopes, hacked CRT monitors, Vectrex game consoles, ILDA laser displays, or oscilloscope emulation softwares using the Pure Data programming environment. This update represents one year of improvements, particularly to the scan processing and 3D areas of the library, which were made during the course of residencies, workshops, and live performances across Europe. My heartfelt thanks to those who have helped me along the way! CODE: https://github.com/macumbista/vectorsynthesis EXAMPLE VIDEOS: https://vimeo.com/macumbista I hope you enjoy playing with it and thank you for your kind attention. -- derek holzer noise.art.technology http://macumbista.net

cyclone 0.3 beta 4 released
by Alexandre Torres Porres 06 Jun '18

06 Jun '18

Cyclone 0.3 beta 4 was released. *Binaries were uploaded to deken. Raspberry Pi and Windows 64 bit binaries coming soon.* This release needs at least Pd 0.48-1 and doesn't work on Pd-Extended or Purr Data! A big deal in this update is that you now do not need to add cyclone to pd's path!!! All you just load the library via startup or with [declare -lib cyclone]. See https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/wiki/How-To-Install for more details on how to install cyclone. The major updates are on [zl], we fixed some of its bugs and included the "sort" method that was missing from Max 4! This was the last Max 4 functionality that was still missing in cyclone, so we finally have a library that is now fully compliant to Max 4! Of course our goal is to uodate cyclone to the last version (Max 7.3.5 at the time of this writing), and we're almost there, the main thing on the way is adding yet 13 more modes to [zl]. After that, we'll finally have a final cyclone 0.3 release. Please file bug reports in here: https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/issues More about the Cyclone project here: https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/wiki Find Source and Binaries and more info here: https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases/tag/cyclone0.3beta.4
