I'm glad to announce v0.3 release for dnd-plugin.
This version fixes a bug where zero padded filenames with spaces would
produce a wrong filename output. And there are extra routing options for
ascii encoded name, path, extension and full name of dropped file.
Most of the ideas on how to solve this issues came from Oliver. I just
help him with some tcl and testing.
You can get it from Deken. Remember to restart Pd.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The main GitHub repo is https://github.com/megrimm/pd-dnd-plugin
Oliver and I have forks with the new version (we will soon send a PR to
the main repo).
I think dnd-plugin repo should be moved to https://github.com/pd-externals
How do we do that? or we shouldn't?

Hi
netpd 2.3.0 is released.
This release features also stand-alone applications for macOS and
Windows.
Features and changes:
---------------------
* give chat and unpatch a facelift
* load instruments from scroll list instead of openpanel
* support unlimited nesting of dynamic loading with new abstraction
[netpd-bus-order]. This allows effects to load other effects into
themselves
* restore support for loading from old text-based preset file format
* broadcast loading from preset file to all clients for improved consistency
* add debug message printing facility (prints incoming and/or outgoing OSC
messages)
* add support for IRC style /commands in chat (check with '/help')
* add protected mode for unpatch. Protects from interactions with
peers while developing instruments
* refactor lots of internal stuff:
* use $1.NETPD bus for everything in netpd_* abstractions
* remove second number argument to [netpd-dump]. Use new [netpd-bus-order]
to enforce order of state dumps.
* only initialize instrument when necessary (e.g. not when receiving
state from peer or from preset file)
* only search for sync peer when necessary
New instruments since last release:
* ripple: sample-based synthesis similar to soundfonts
* ep-mk2: physical model of an e-piano (port of Mike Moreno's ep-mk2)
* filtlib: finally a suite of filters (based on mmb)

ELSE 1.0-0 Beta 37 with Live Electronics Tutorial is out and I'm happy to
announce its 1st update of the year.
I had this idea that when I reached 400 externals that I might be ready to
move on past the beta phase. Well, I got 399 now, so I could be close.
I got many many breaking changes in this release (the greatest so far from
one version to another), so enjoying the fact it's still a beta phase. I
also got numerous fixes and improvements in current objects, let me pin
point a "freeze" option for ffdelay~/fbdelay~.
I got 6 new objects but I'm saving more new ones for the next release that
aren't quite ready yet (like a cool preset system). The highlight is
[note2pitch] and [pitch2note] that converts from note names to midi pitches
and vice versa. I also have a new [del~] object which is pretty much like
[delwrite~]/[delread4~] but with some fixes and many extra features, like
being able to resize the delay line and freeze it. I made pull requests to
add these to vanilla as well, let's see.
For a full changelog, downloads, see
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta37
get it also from deken
The Live Electronics tutorial is also part of the download and has also
been updated, highlights is the revision on the delay lines section, where
I also included the new [del~] object and also put an example I was owing
on reverse delay lines.
We shall also release a new Camomile-ELSE version in the next few days,
stay tuned and check it out until it's there ;)
https://github.com/emviveros/Camomile-ELSE/releases
hi
i'd like to announce the release of deken-v0.7.1
https://github.com/pure-data/deken/releases/v0.7.1
the GUI-plugin can be installed via deken.
just go to "Help -> Find externals" and enter
"deken-plugin" as the search string.
this is the version i'd like to get into the next Pd release as the
standard "find externals" implementation.
so please test :-)
what's new?
deken-plugin ("Find externals" within Pd)
=========================================
- decide whether you want to search of libraries, objects or both
- select multiple packages (with right-click) and download/install them
at once
- install packages from files
- library sorting has improved (newer libraries sort before older
libraries, rather than reversed-alphabetically)
- (optional) drag'n'drop package files onto the dialog to install them
- callback to allow Pd to search for uncreatable objects (dekenception)
- better support for packages with externals that don't do any number
processing
- optionally keep package files after downloading them
- improve SHA256 verification handling
- introduce @PD_PATH@ placeholder for the path the the current
Pd-instance, so you can set the installation directory to
@PD_PATH@/extra and installations won't interfere with each other.
- (optional) SHA256 verification
- fix close-window shortcut
- lots more of fixes, bugs and laughs
the features marked as "(optional)" require additional software to be
installed (e.g. the "tcllib" (for SHA256 verification) resp. the "tkdnd"
(for drag'n'drop; if you got the dropsuite plugin to work, then this
will work as well)
some of the features are not really user-visible yet, notably the one
labelled "(dekenception)". but this is the deken-part of the recent
click-broken-object-to-find-the-library demo i posted on the pd-list.
deken cmdline (create and upload packages)
==========================================
for those of you who develop libraries and publish them via deken,
there's also an updated version of the `deken` cmdline utility.
- much improved generation of object lists (using the DESCRIPTION of the
object's help-patch)
- new flag to override the package name
- new flag to skip GPG-signing
- settable output dir when creating packages
- strip a leading "v" from the version to prevent accidental "vv1.2.3"
versions
- take dynamic libraries into account when calculating the architecture
- new "systemfix" command
- new "systeminfo" command (for bugreports)
- new "uninstall" command to uninstall packages (or deken itself)
- fix password input on MSYS2
- switch to hy-0.19/Python3
- binaries for macOS & Windows
- Docker image (registry.git.iem.at/pd/deken:v0.7.1) for use in CI-systems
- lots of fixes, wine and bugs
to absent friends.
today, the iem is announcing the shut down of the
https://apt.puredata.info/ and https://autobuild.puredata.info/ services.
if you are missing these services, now is the time to propose a toast.
if you are going to miss these services, think again.
https://apt.puredata.info/ provided Debian packages of Pd-extended, up
to Debian/wheezy (aka Debian 7) resp Ubuntu/trusty (aka Ubuntu 14.04).
As we all know, the last release of Pd-extended was based on Pd-0.43 and
happened in january 2013. it has been dead since then.
Debian/wheezy was released in 2013 and has been superseded by
Debian/jessie (aka Debian 8) in 2015. The Long Term Support (LTS) for
Debian/jessie [sic!] ended in june 2020. There was no LTS for Debian/wheezy.
Ubuntu/trusty was released in 2014 and received Long Term Support until
april 2019.
https://autobuild.puredata.info/ provided nightly snapshots of
Pd-extended, so people could test all the new development features of
Pd-extended without having to compile themselves.
Again, Pd-extended has been dead for 7 years.
The last nightly development snapshot was uploaded in 2016.
happy patching.

ICAD 2021
Call for Submission of Papers and Extended Abstracts
26th International Conference on Auditory Display
Virtual Conference
25-28 June 2021
https://icad2021.icad.org
THEME: “SOUNDING BOARD”
In addition to being part of the resonating chamber in a musical
instrument, the term sounding board is also a metaphor for a channel
through which ideas are discussed and disseminated. ICAD, established in
1992 has, through its 25 conference meetings, shared over 1,150 papers with
the auditory display community. This year, the conference will offer itself
as a sounding board for the community, allowing time to pause and reflect
on the history of auditory display research, review how research has
changed throughout the years, and discuss future areas of inquiry as well
as how to adapt our research during these challenging times. Therefore, the
ICAD 2021 committee is seeking full papers, abstracts, concert pieces,
demos, installations, workshops, and tutorials from across the full
spectrum of auditory display research and practice. From discussions and
reflections on the history of auditory display research with a view to
generating new ways of thinking about how we as practitioners should go
about things, to speculative ideas or news of late-breaking work,
submissions are sought across all the categories. We are particularly
interested in hearing from researchers who have never considered themselves
to be part of the community before, or whose work sits at the periphery of
the field.
Important Dates:
Full Papers - March 31st
Abstract Only Submissions (no paper published) - April 30th
Workshops/Tutorials/Demos - April 30th
Live Performances/Installations - April 30th
Doctoral Consortium/Thinktank -April 30th
For details on topics of interest, proposal format, submission
instructions, and additional conference information please visit

About ICAD:
First held in 1992, ICAD is a highly interdisciplinary conference with
relevance to researchers, practitioners, artists, and graduate students
working with sound to convey and explore information. The conference is
unique in its specific focus on auditory displays and the range of
interdisciplinary issues related to their use. Like its predecessors, ICAD
2021 will be a single-track conference, open to all, with no membership or
affiliation requirements.

Greetings,
I'm pleased to announce that FFTease 3.0 is now available for Pd. Based on
a project started in 1999 by Christopher Penrose and myself, FFTease is a
set of externals designed to make the exploration of FFT-based spectral
processing as easy as possible. The package may be accessed through deken
(search for "fftease") or directly downloaded from the Github distribution
<https://github.com/ericlyon/pd-fftease>. Github would be the best place to
send bug reports or any other feedback.
Thanks to @porres, @umlaeute, and @Lucarda for invaluable assistance and
contributions throughout this process.

Hi, I'm "resurrecting" CICM-Tools: a set of 3 objects allowing you to
virtually position a sound source in a multiphonic space. They are:
- [ambicube~] - 3D spatialisation by ambisonic B format
- [ambipan~] - 2D spatialisation by ambisonic B format
- [vbapan~] - 2D spatialisation by Vector Base Amplitude Panning
CICM-Tools is abandoned and unsupported. The archived version for MAX is
found at https://github.com/CICM/CicmTools. The Pd download of the original
sources and binaries (32 bits only) can be found at
http://cicm.mshparisnord.org/.
The version 1.5 for Pure Data was released on july 14th 2004. In my
repository (https://github.com/porres/pd-cicm-tools) I provided binaries
for 64 bits as well. I made quite minor modifications to the help file so
it's all vanilla and needs no abstraction dependency. And of course I kept
the original license.
Find it https://github.com/porres/pd-cicm-tools/releases/tag/1.5 and you
can also download it by searching "cicmtools" via deken.
The Max version has a newer version and maybe one could port that to PD as
well for a new release.
Raspberry pi binaries may pop up soon.
cheers
Dear colleagues and peers,
If you are interested in music generation, we have some exciting news to share with you.
First, we are announcing the AI Music Creativity (AIMC) community website ([https://aimusiccreativity.org](https://aimusiccreativity.org/)), which features proceedings from past iterations of the AIMC conference, Musical Metacreation (MuMe) workshop and the Computer Simulation of Music Creativity Conference (CSMC), as well as some detailed information about bids for hosting AIMC 2022 (https://aimusiccreativity.org/2020/12/18/Welcoming-bids-for-2022/).
Second, we have also renamed the MuMe google group to AIMC, as we felt it would be most convenient for those who are already members of the group. If you aren't a member, you can join here: https://groups.google.com/g/musicalmetacreation.
Finally, we would also take this opportunity to remind you to check out the AIMC 20201 call for papers, music and tutorials at https://aimc2021.iem.at/. Paper, music and tutorial submissions are due April 1, 2021.
Submission deadline: 1. April 2021
Acceptance notification deadline: 1. May 2021
Camera-ready deadline: 1. June 2021
Conference: 18.-22. July 2021
Test negative and stay positive.
Pr. Philippe Pasquier,
On the behalf of the AIMC Steering Committee.

Hi all
The tool set tpf-client / tpf-server is used for low-latency, multi-
channel and multi-location audio transmission and is built in Pd. A new
version (1.1-beta1) is available.
New features:
* Support for rooms (allows many parallel sessions)
* Ability to re-order peers in slots
* Persistence of allocated slots (important for avoiding Jack re-
routing)
* Save and restore sessions (with all parameters and peer order)
* Send keep-alive messages so that TCP connection doesn't die
Client:
https://github.com/reduzent/tpf-client
Server:
https://github.com/reduzent/tpf-server
Enjoy!Roman
*ELSE version 1.0-0 beta 36 with Live Electronics Tutorial + Camomile 1.0.7
compiled with ELSE 1.0-0 beta36*
It's with lots of pleasure that I announce the last update of ELSE + my
tutorial with 10 new objects (393 in total) and new examples on the
tutorial regarding these new objects (410 in total). New objects comprise
tuning utilitites (that allow us to deal with exotic/weird/arbitrary
scales) and granulator abstractions. There are also many
fixes/improvements, check the changelog at:
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta36 - this release
needs at least pd 0.51-3, but pd 0.51-4 came out nearly two minutes later
and you should just get it anyway (why stay behind, right?).
And the greatest news is that we're finally officially supporting a build
of camomile that includes the externals from ELSE!!! Camomile itself is a
little behind (using Pd 0.51-0) but most of the library works. The main
issue is that 2 objects that rely on the new "pd-forward"
message (introduced in Pd 0.51-2) won't work: these are [batch.rec~] and
[batch.write~]. So, get camomile with ELSE at
https://github.com/emviveros/Camomile-ELSE/releases/tag/beta36 and have
lots of fun building plguins for your favorite DAW!
Cheers and happy 2021, let's hope the sequel isn't as bad as 2020!

2nd Conference on AI Music Creativity (MuMe + CSMC)
18.-22. July 2021
The second joint Conference on AI Music Creativity brings together two overlapping research forums: The Computer Simulation of Music Creativity Conference (est. 2016) and The International Workshop on Musical Metacreation (est. 2012). The objective of the conference is to bring together scholars and artists interested in the emulation and extension of musical creativity through computational means and to provide them with an interdisciplinary platform in which to present and discuss their work in scientific and artistic contexts.
The 2021 Joint Conference on AI Music Creativity will be hosted by the Institute of Electronic Music and Acoustics (IEM) of the University of Music and Performing Arts of Graz and held online. The five-day program will feature paper presentations, concerts, panel discussions, workshops, tutorials, sound installations and two keynotes.
Further details can be found below and on the conference website: https://aimc2021.iem.at/
# Conference theme
The theme of AIMC 2021 is: Performing [with] machines. The dual meaning of this title hints towards an understanding of the machine as a performing agent in a human-machine partnership. By putting the emphasis on creative human-machine partnerships in performative contexts, this theme aims to encourage artistic and scientific contributions that deal with the different ways in which musicianship, authorship and performership are challenged, extended and redefined in the era of AI.
# Call for Papers
We invite submissions of full papers, work-in-progress papers and demos on topics related to AI Music Creativity. For the first time, our call for papers includes a “piece and paper” category, for papers linked with a music submission.
# Call for Music
We invite artistic submissions that deal with topics related to AI music creativity, involving machines, machine learning and dealing with topics related to agency. We especially encourage and promote submissions that address AI from diverse technical and non-technical as well as critical angles with regard to questions of gender, performance, ecology and aesthetics.
# Call for Workshops and Tutorials
We welcome the submission of workshop and tutorial proposals related to the conference topics. Selected workshops will be held online and take place on the first day of the conference (July 18th).
# Important dates
Submission deadline: 1. April 2021
Acceptance notification deadline: 1. May 2021
Camera-ready deadline: 1. June 2021
Conference: 18.-22. July 2021

Hi guys,
I would like to share my recent work PdWebParty which is a web app that
allows you to run Pd patches in a web browser and share them by using a web
link. As the name implies, it is inspired by PdDroidParty and PdParty.
Currently, the app only supports Bang(bng), Toggle(tgl), Canvas(cnv), and
Comment but other objects will be added soon.
You can try the app from https://pdwebparty.herokuapp.com/
For more information, visit https://github.com/cuinjune/PdWebParty
Thank you!
Best,
Zack

Hi, get it all from deken, changes described in:
- https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases/tag/cyclone_0.5-5
- https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta34
I've missed a couple of announcements from the last updates of ELSE but I'm
just updating it more frequently these days because I'm teaching a course.
Look for previous versions for other changes. As for cyclone, I hope this
is the last fix so we can finally get all capital letters aliases working
:)
cheers
Hi Everybody,
Here's an upcoming Networked Performance Livestream using a *hacked* Netty McNetface patch for 9 channels (before Miller bumped it up to 12 :) for the Wexner Center crew to tap the audio and mix in the video feed for streaming.
Tune in via the vimeo link on this website: https://wexarts.org/performing-arts/wexep-sonic-arts-ensemble
---
From Marc Ainger:
We will be presenting a Networked Performance Livestream (Into the Multiverse) on Tuesday, Nov 10 at 7 PM EST featuring the Sonic Arts Ensemble (directed by Marc Ainger and Fede Camara Halac) with Elizabeth A Baker, produced by the Wexner Center for the Arts.
Please tune in (It's free! And exciting!)
Best,
Marc Ainger

Cheers!
Fede
ps. the netty hack is here for now https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RpDCP0bEOjwCu93mNZiGM0OF0dlSv4vF
(be warned, it is a more colorful experience than the original Netty, but it is still vanilla)
fdch.github.io
Howdy, lots of stuff in this update, could be maybe 0.6, but we're still
trying to get things right from 0.5 :)
We finally have all Capital Letters aliases working. This has been quite a
pain... 0.5 was supposed to have them all back but I was screwing up in the
packaging/uploading to deken for the linux binaries (thanks Esteban Viveros
for the help). We could reupload earlier 0.5 versions though. Anyway,
please test them.
Many bugs have been fixed and we're still trying to get [comment] right,
make it real nice. Now there's a new resizing handle that improves 1
million per cent the ability to resize it, really happy for that.
For a full changelog and all binaries, see
https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases/tag/cyclone_0.5-4
A couple of the binary packs are already showing up in deken, give it some
time til all show up.
Cheers

Piksel20
November 19-22 2020
Bergen, Norway
Dear friends,
this year the Piksel Festival has been waiting to the last minute to
release the open call in the hope the Covid rules would relax a bit,
mainly regarding the obligation to quarantine artists at arrival in
Bergen.
As the festival is approaching, we finally decided to do a double open
call.
One is for artists travelling from non quarantine countries who can
travel to Bergen. Please check here if your country is in a yellow
colour:
https://www.fhi.no/en/op/novel-coronavirus-facts-advice/facts-and-general-a…
We are aware that the map can change in the next months.
The other one is for artists (who can not travel to Bergen) whose
artworks can be presented either virtually/online (Mozilla Hubs,
PikselSavers, online concerts, presentations and workshops) or
physically at the exhibition where the Piksel technical team will
follow the artists instructions to setup the works.
Adding to the open call, Piksel also invites 1 international artist
collective, a "cohort", from 1 to 3 people, to pass the quarantine time
(10 days) together in a residency/house in Bergen. During the
quarantine, the artist collective Q10 will develop workshops, artworks
and installations or performances. They will be presenting the results
over the 10 days through online digital media and window display
screens. Once the quarantine time is over, these artists will be able
to participate at the Piksel Festival concerts and exhibition with all
the health guarantees in place. The QUARANTINE 10 project aims to bring
the people together on this dystopian ”new normality”.
Please feel free to submit your projects to anyone of the open tracks:
Presentations, workshops, concerts, installations and the Q10project.
We apologize for the short time to present the applications. Deadline
10th of October. Please use the online submit form at:
https://pretalx.com/piksel20
Piksel is an international festival for electronic art and
technological freedom. Part workshop, part festival, it is organised in
Bergen, Norway, and involves participants from more than a dozen
countries exchanging ideas, coding, presenting art and software
projects, doing workshops, performances and discussions on the
aesthetics and politics of art and free technologies.
open CALL for PROJECTS
For the exhibition and other parts of the program we currently seek
projects in the following categories:
1. Installations
Projects to be included in the exhibitions.

Sorry for the short notice, but there you are:
Please pass by tonight to the concert of Audio Mostly 2020, presenting
our newly developed our Live and Immersive Environment Streaming Lab
(LIESL) based on an Ambisonics stream (HOAST)!
Concert 16.09.2020 - 20h CEST
https://am20.iem.at/live/
You may "sit" in the concert hall, move around with your mouse and use
Ambisonics or binaural audio to see and hear the chosen works of Audio
Mostly music submissions in 360 degrees around you.
The 360° video compositing is done - of course - in Gem (yours sincerely).
The setup is a bit experimental, and the 16MBit/s streams might saturate
our 1GBit uplink if *all* of you join. (but of course, there's a
fallback 2D-stream that is pre-rendered to binaural, if you just want to
enjoy the concert).

To Pd-announce:
Pd version 0.51-2 is available on http://msp.ucsd.edu/software.htm or
via github. Updates to the pd~ object, particularly fixing problems when there
is white space in the path to pd (as in "Program Files"). The pd~ object is
now also working in Max/MSP.

I'm happy to announce the release of [vstplugin~] v0.4.0 - a Pd external
to load VST plugins on Windows, macOS and Linux!
Binaries are available on Deken or can be downloaded here:
https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/releases
<https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/releases>
If possible, please report any issues at
https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/issues, otherwise leave a comment here:
https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/13013/vstplugin-v0-4-0-released
---
Here are the major new features:
*
automatic bit bridging (load 32-bit plugins on a 64-bit Pd and vice
versa).
*
|[open(|: new flags "-p" for sandboxing and "-b" for bridging. Both
options allow plugins to crash safely without taking down the Pd.
This can be handy for buggy/unstable plugins (especially during live
shows :-)
*
|[open(|: new "-t" flag for multithreading (process plugins in
seperate helper threads to utilize more CPU cores)
* |[latency(| message is sent whenever the plugin's processing latency
changes
See the release page for the full change log.
Have fun!

Else 1.0 beta 31 is out! Highlight is a new *[batch.write~] *that batch
records to arrays. It is a nice counterpart to *[batch.rec~]* included in
the last release. I also have *[perlin~]* (a Perlin noise abstraction
developed by Matt Barber). There are more changes and fixes, and the Live
Electronic Tutorial that comes with it reflects those changes and has a
better and revised section on recording in "24-Sampling(buffer)". Check
here for binaries (which should be up in deken in a few hours) and for a
full changelog: <https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta31
>.

Cyclone 0.5-3 is out, needs Pd 0.51-0 (but 0.51-1 is out and you should get
that). It's available via Pd. Most of the work is still in getting
cyclone/comment "awesome", like now we draw an outline when in edit mode
and added support for foreign alphabets. It still needs a better properties
window and hopefully we'll get there soon. There's also other stuff in this
release. Find full changelog and binaries here:
https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases/tag/cyclone_0.5-3 (binaries
also available via Pd's 'deken'). Cheers.
Hi, this needs Pd 0.51-the highlight is a new abstraction called
[batch.rec~] that records your patches into a sound file in batch mode. In
this way you can render whatever amount of audio as fast as possible in
your computer. This is possible with the new 'fast-forward' message to Pd,
available in Pd 0.51-1. The cool thing about this object is that it has
multichannel support. The "Live Electronics Tutorial" is part of the
package and relies on the ELSE library. Find this folder inside the 'else'
folder, check its readme. The tutorial also provides an example on how to
use this new 'fast-forward' feature. Check
"Vol.1/Introduction-Pd.Quickstart/2.Syntax/4.fast-forward.pd". Find
downloads for basically every platform possible now (there are 4 different
ones for raspberry pi only) at
https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta30 - Check also in
this link more CHANGELOG details. A Changelog for the tutorial is here
https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronics-Tutorial/releases/tag/v1.0-beta-…
You cal also download this directly via "Pd => Find Externals", just search
for 'else', it's already online!
To Pd-announce:
Pd version 0.51-1 is available on http://msp.ucsd.edu/software.htm
or (source only) via github: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data.
This contains bug fixes, notably fixing problems running on Macintoshes
after dark or on system 11.
[OT] another announcement, but nothing to do with Pd: a new book that Kerry
Hagan and I edited about electornic music pioneers, "Between the Tracks",
comes out Sept. 1 from MIT Press.
cheers

To Pd announce
Version 0.6 of quacktrip is up on http://msp.ucsd.edu/tools/quacktrip/ .
It's pretty stable now. I've added a variant I call Netty McNetface that
supports groups using a centralized repeater. This partly overlaps with AOO's
functionality but has a simpler implementation.

Hello, as previously announced, there's a next year's edition of the Vortex
Music Journal dedicated to Pure Data. We're now changing/rearranging the
call for a further edition - volume 9 / number 2 (instead of v.9 n.1) -
which is still to be released in 2021, but it gives us now a new and
further submission deadline rescheduled to June 1st 2021! The old deadline
was december 15th 2020, so this just gave us more than 6 months! I hope
this gives people time to work on new projects and have something ready to
talk about them then ;)
2021 is the year Pd becomes 25 years old, hence the theme: “A quarter of
century of Pd: past, present and future”. So we're especially looking for
works that present a dialogue with Pd's history and also look ahead. Novel
works that contribute to Pd naturally do that, of course. And by "Pd",
clearly we mean all that is related and based on Pd, like forks, like works
that rely on libpd, etc... Note that artistic works are also highly
welcome, in the same way especially those that involve something "new".
For more info, please check: http://vortex.unespar.edu.br/call_v9_n2a.pdf
* Vortex Music Journal | v.9 n.2 "A quarter of century of Pd: past, present
and future" * Submission Deadline: June 1st, 2021. * Guest Editor: Dr.

Hello everyone,
The jmmmp library of abstractions has been updated to version 0.59.
Added [live2reaper] , a synchronizer from Ableton Live to Cuckos Reaper,
though Ableton Link and OSC.
This uses [abl_link~], which is for now only available (mostly) on 32b
versions of Pd.
You can download it soon through deken, or in http://bit.ly/jmmmp_059

Hi,
I'm really glad to announce the release of r_cycle, a project I've been
working on recently, initially presented at the end of last year in London
in the form of a workshop.
r_cycle is a Pd (Vanilla) library developed to work with Launchpads (old
and new) that can also be used for other purposes (of course it's open
source).
r_cycle allows users to interact with the Launchpad controllers and create
widgets on the device on-the-fly.
For example in your Pd patch you create a [KEYBOARD] object and this will
appear on the Launchpad, you delete the object in Pd and this disappears on
the Launchpad. You press a pad that is part of the widget and the object
returns some value in Pd.
The arguments of the object determine its characteristics (position, pitch,
color, etc.).
r_cycle doesn't only include "widgets" but audio and MIDI objects as well,
simple things that made my life easier and I thought would be worth sharing.
You can find more info here:
https://novationmusic.com/en/news/hack-making-music
and a simple introduction video here: https://vimeo.com/442976991
Cheers,
Mario
Dear List,
10 years after its first version, the Click Tracker
(http://j.mp/click-tracker) has gone mobile!
The Android App can now be purchased at
https://bit.ly/clicktracker-playstore.
Built usingPure Data and libpd, this app delivers the same results as
using the original software. For more information, see the website
https://bit.ly/click-tracker-mob or ask at clicktracker(a)posteo.org.
For the apple-people, an iOS version is being developped.
The original software is still available at http://j.mp/click-tracker,
or on facebook http://j.mp/clicktrackerfb.
Click Tracker is a program designed for composers, conductors and
instrumentalists working with modern music. The main goal of the
software is to prepare a click track of any score, no matter how complex
it is.
With best regards,
João Pais
ELSE 1.0 beta 29 with live electronics tutorial is out. This library
version needs at Pd version 0.51-0 or above! Most importantly, I fixed a
bug in [dir] where it couldn't load absolute paths in windows. I also made
nice improvements to [keyboard] and included a new GUI object for text
input (messbox), which is like an atom box (where you can insert data while
in run mode) but for any kind of message.
There's other stuff and breaking changes as usual as this is still a beta
project, so check the detailed changelog at
https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronic-Music-Tutorial/releases/tag/v1.0-…
- where you can download this and earlier versions. You can also get else
directly via Pd (in Help => Find Externals). This download also contains
the "Live Electronics Tutorial", in a version compatible to this version of
ELSE. Find the "Live Electronics Tutorial" folder inside the 'else' folder.
cheers
2nd bugfix release of cyclone 0.5 (released about a month ago) is out!
Cyclone 0.5-2 doesn't offer that much. It includes a couple of bug fixes
and adds a receive symbol to [scope~]. Inlets to [scope~] are now drawn
while in edit mode like in Max. A rudimentary/preliminary properties window
is also available for [comment], hopefully next release will have a fancier
final one.
This bugfix release is specially necessary for those who've been using
[comment] since cyclone 0.3 and even more since 0.5 - not much to worry,
just start using it soon and resave your patches. I won't get into details
of my plans and why, but this will be useful in the long run to improve
backwards compatibility.
Find all binaries and changelog here, this is already available via deken
as well for all platforms.
https://github.com/porres/pd-cyclone/releases/tag/cyclone_0.5-2
