pre/test release of ELSE 1.0 rc9
by Alexandre Torres Porres 31 Jul '23

31 Jul '23

Hi folks, here's a pre/test release of an update of ELSE. I need to test if the builds are working correctly, especially apple silicon architecture. I need help especially testing [sfont~], [plaits~] and the new [sfz~] object. I also need help compiling these 3 objects for Raspberry Pi for the final release and also figuring out what is the sane and "best" versions of raspberry pi architectures to offer. Check the prior discussion in the latest threads of the Pd list. About the release, there's a bunch of cool new stuff, many new objects, lots of them for Multichannel fun. See changelog below. No uploads to deken yet, get the binaries from https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-rc9-pre-test cheers -------------------------------------- CHANGELOG: -------------------------------------- **LIBRARY:** Breaking changes: - [quantizer~], [rescale~], [fold~] and [wrap2~] no more signal inputs for secondary inlets, only floats. - [out1~] removed, use [out.mc~] instead now. - [sin~] doesn't take float input anymore. - [pluck~] float input is now in the 0-127 range. - [voices] -list flag removed as this is now the default mode, use "-split" flag for the old default mode. Enhancements/fixes/other changes: - [knob] and [numbox~], use alt+click instead of double click to restore initial value - Added MC (multichannel connection) support for some objects (very few gained it out of the box for being abstractions, lke [gain~]), they are: [ceil~], [floor~], [rint~], [trunc~], [sin~], [cents2ratio~], [ratio2cents~], [db2lin~], [lin2db~] (now a compiled object), [gain~], [samps2ms~], [ms2samps~], [mag~], [pol2car~]/[car2pol~] (now compiled objects), [bitnormal~], [op~], [sig2float~], [float2sig~] (now an abstraction), [rescale~], [fold~], [wrap2~] and [quantizer~]. - added "not" operation (!) to [op] and [op~]. - [adsr~] and [asr~] fixed 2nd outlet in log mode. - [stepnoise~], [rampnoise~] and [lfnoise~] fixed seed flag - [stepnoise~] and [rampnoise~] fixed loading hz argument when there's a 'seed' flag. - [rescale] and [rescale~] fixed bug when first argument is higher then the second - [slider2d] and [circle], fixed "init" and shipping for macs. - 16 new objects: [nchs~], [get~], [pick~], [sum~], [sigs~], [out.mc~], [ osc.mc~], [imp.mc~], [rampnoise.mc~], [stepnoise.mc~], [select~], [ xselect.mc~], [merge~], [phaseseq~], [oscnoise~] and [sfz~]. Objects count: total of 492 (264 signal objects and 228 control objects)! - 280 coded objects (179 signal objects / 101 control objects) - 212 abstractions (85 signal objects / 127 control objects) -------------------------------------- **TUTORIAL:** - Revision of Quickstart chapter with new info on MC connections. - New examples for new objects in ELSE. Total number of examples is 506 --------------------------------------

New Externals for the SoundScape Renderer + ASDF external
by Matthias Geier 10 Jul '23

10 Jul '23

Hi all. We have recently released version 0.6.1 of the SoundScape Renderer (SSR), which is a tool for real-time spatial audio reproduction providing a variety of rendering algorithms, e.g. Wave Field Synthesis, Higher-Order Ambisonics and binaural techniques. Most of the rendering back-ends of the SSR have been available as Pd externals for many years, the Binaural Room Synthesis (BRS) renderer has been added recently. However, the externals had to be compiled manually, which might have kept some potential users from trying them. But now, the SSR externals are also available with Deken! I don't know if I have to explain it on this list, but just in case: go to "Help" -> "Find externals", search for "ssr" and click "install"! Then, put an object [declare -path ssr] into your patch, and now you can use the externals ssr_binaural~, ssr_brs~, ssr_dca~, ssr_aap~, ssr_wfs~ and ssr_vbap~. You can feed audio signals to the externals and use messages to change their positions (and volume etc.). For more details, see the help patches. Alternatively, you can use the brand-new asdf~ external to load a dynamic audio scene using the Audio Scene Description Format (ASDF, https://audioscenedescriptionformat.readthedocs.io/). This will provide the source signals and the control messages for you. Again, just search for "asdf", click "install" and put an object [declare -path asdf] into your patch. Currently, there are not many example scenes available, but for starters you can have a look here: https://github.com/AudioSceneDescriptionFormat/asdf-example-scenes/ This is our first generation of Pd externals via Deken. If you find any problems or if you have suggestions for improvements, please let us know via the issue trackers at https://github.com/SoundScapeRenderer/ssr or https://github.com/AudioSceneDescriptionFormat/asdf-rust. cheers, Matthias
