Hi Gunter Geiger, pd devs,
I have recently begun to write an external for SMS synthesis, by basically porting the command line tool Xavier Serra wrote within the original SMS code (found at http://www.iua.upf.es/~sms/software/Old-SMS-for-NextStep.zip). I was talking to Xavier about this and he mentioned that you almost got an external working with sms.. Before I did too much work, I figured I would ask to see what types of problems you ran into, or if you have any suggestions.
I'm also sending this to the pd-dev list to see if others have suggestions. I figure that I will start by doing just a port of the command line tool, and then later add in features for seeking through frames at any speed and direction, visually manipulating the data, and other fun things. But I would like to know what others think.
regards, rich
