Dear Miller and the wonderful list I have been off and on tweaking pd since i took the MSP class at UF last semester While i admit i was more comfy with Csound i would like to work more on pd i would like any and all help getting the ggext libraries to work as well as Mark's wonderful GEM i am using the dll's i got from martin and when i load pd i get error: envgen_sustain: only 5 arguments are typecheckable; use A_GIMM GGEXT: Guenter Geiger GGEXT: ver: 0.12 GGEXT: compiled: Jan 19 2000 is this proper? and can Someone tell me the up to date versions i should have for W98 & Rh6.1 what number is pd at now?? cheers to all btw-- i wrote a random midi and JI sine generator that is a portion of the feature drone of a hybrid performance@ Microthon in NYC this november pd listers in the Area come out to show dem!!

Phase-locked loop?
by jams＠cs.tut.fi 12 Oct '00

12 Oct '00

Dear List, has someone possibly constructed a phase-locked loop (PLL) within Pd? In my numerous attempts I have not succeeded in getting the parameters right so far. A PLL could be described Pd-wise as follows: you would have two phasor~ objects, one whose frequency is user-controllable and the other whose frequency is controlled so that the frequencies and phases of the phasors coincide. The control is fed with the outputs of both phasor~s. Any help appreciated :) -- -Jarno

[sorry for multiple cross-postings] Finally, it's done. It's out in the bookstores. "The Book of Linux Music & Sound" - How to install, configure and use linux audio software by Dave Phillips No Starch Press ISBN 1-886411-34-4 $ 39.95 (with CD-Rom) (http://www.nostarch.com/lms.htm) For those who get close to Linux for the first time, the book is a great source to get started rapidly on sound and multimedia. I must say that even for old farts like me :), this book has been invaluable in discovering things that I did not even think were possible. Most of you know Dave Phillips: he is the maintainer of the "Sound & MIDI Software for Linux" site (http://www.bright.net/~dlphilp/linuxsound/). The CD-ROM contains most software packages discussed in the book. Enjoy +----------------------+ |Nicola Bernardini | |E-mail: nicb(a)axnet.it | +----------------------+

Background color of objects on canvas

Hi all, We know how to change the background color of canvas, is it possible to change the background color of objects on canvas in a similar way ? I'd like to have a grey canvas with white objects. Many thanks Cheers Alessandro Fogar

variable sends
by Miller Puckette 04 Oct '00

04 Oct '00

By the way... if you want a variable send in Pd, you can fake it as follows: #N canvas 0 0 450 206 10; #X msg 133 115 \; \$1 \$2; #X obj 224 118 r foo; #X obj 224 140 print foo; #X obj 305 120 r bar; #X obj 305 142 print bar; #X msg 107 46 list foo 5; #X msg 179 46 list bar 56; #X connect 1 0 2 0; #X connect 3 0 4 0; #X connect 5 0 0 0; #X connect 6 0 0 0; ... but there's no way to do it yet at teh receive end. I have to remember to look at how Max does it next time i'm in the same building as a macintosh... cheers Miller

anything
by unknown＠example.com 02 Oct '00

hi all; i'm trying to figure out anything and therefore have questions to reduce my amount of reading code. how can i create a secondary inlet in an external that eats "anything"s ? the thing is, that you normally access "another" inlet via an identifier: inlet_new(owner, pd, gensym(type), gensym(identifier)); this of course is useless with "anything", since the identifier is the one thing that makes an atom_list into anything. would it be possible, to create something like an "listinlet_new" or "anythinginlet_new" ? maybe it would be more intelligent to just make objects "any2list" and "list2any" and then deal with simple lists ? another similar topic:: miller, do you plan to add the "anything" method to the "trigger"-object sometimes in the (near??) future ? it seems often quite annoying, when being not able to deal with anythings anyhow. but again that could be easily worked around with the "any2list" (yeah, i'll do this NOW) mfg.sda.asdr hannes
