What would "Pd instruments" be?
I would say it's something like a VSTi for Pd (and implemented in Pd).
I friend gave me a short tutorial for Reaktor, which is similar to Pd, but everything is organized in Ensembles, Instruments, Macros and Structures.
It might be the same thing that runs in Reaktor, I don't know so much about it, but what I am tryin to propose is to have some kind of Virtual Midi Instruments inside the PD that will communicate with PD MIDI objects directly.
Well, then I guess it's similar to what I intend to realize with the RRADical patches: modular, higher level instruments ready to use inside Pd.
Frank, can you tell me more about these RRADical patches? Do you have any demo or running version?
koray.

For one, I think, that midi alone is not flexible enough for many use cases. That's why I choose a combination of midi messages and mostly OSC messages for communication between RRADical objects.
I must admit, that I might mis- or not understand what "directly communicating" means to you, though.

The official home for the RRADical patches is the Pure data CVS at pure-data.sf.net in the folder: /abstractions/rradical
A screenshot of a fullblown patch using these objects is at http://footils.org/images/show.png
Yesterday I also released an experimental version of the patches using a namespace-save naming convention: http://footils.org/cms/sql/show/22 rsp. http://footils.org/pkg/rradical-newstyle-040823.tgz
This includes all rradical patches, but is intended as an experiment for testing out those namespaces and to get comments on them. Whatever comes out of this might lead to the naming convention be dropped again or made the standard.
