Hi, I'm kinda done with that 'audio examples' revision I mentioned and working on other doc related stuff to make it into the next update.
Still regarding the 'audio examples', I saw a bit of text that could maybe be improved and updated. I actually already updated it, but I wanted to discuss it with you here on the dev list.
Originally - in example A04.line.pd - it did say "*On most machines, you will hear an interruption in the sound one second after you click on the first or third box. This is because the graphical updates are likely to eat more CPU time than your audio buffer has pre-buffered for. You can avoid this if you keep your graphs in sub-windows and open them only when you need them. In some future version of Pd this behavior will be improved. Until then, you'll have to avoid having arrays getting re-drawn during music performances.*"
I think it's safe to say that this doesn't happen anymore "*On Most Machines*", especially on this kind of example. I can see that dragging an array with a huge sample does choke the audio, or plotting it as well, maybe, I don't know, but not something simple like this.
The text also say that "*future version of Pd this behavior will be improved.*" so I ask, hasn't this been improved already? :)
What do you think I should say here, if anything?
Thanks

Hi,
I can post an issue on the github repo if this is something that needs to wait until later...
All bug reports should go to GitHub, regardless of their urgency.

Hi Miller and all,
If it's not too late to investigate for this update, I noticed that Pd 0.55-0 suddenly stopped supporting JACK with 8+ output channels. When I set output channels to 8 or more, Pd freezes and I have to issue a "kill -9" for the process. This configuration still works for me using Pd 0.54-1, where I regularly use 20 output channels. Here's the software/hardware situation where I'm experiencing the problem in case anyone else can reproduce it:
- macOS Sonoma 14.5
- Pd 0.55-0 (binary downloaded from https://msp.ucsd.edu/software.html)
- jackdmp version 1.9.22
- MacBook Pro M1 64GB RAM
I can post an issue on the github repo if this is something that needs to wait until later... William

To Pd Dev -
What do you think, is it time to put 0.55-1 out?
If I don't hear any objections I'll stick out a "test" one Saturday, and maybe the real one in a week or so.
cheers
