gem on linux, with voodoo2 card
by Bastien Baltazar 27 Oct '01

27 Oct '01

Hello, I'm a new beginner on pd, and gem, too. I make pd working with sound, and installed succesfully the gem library. A use a voodoo2, with 3dfx, mesa and glut drivers, in order to have a separated video output. The problem is that gem try to use Xfree4 glx drivers, based on a matrox g250, and doesnt work (when I click on the create box, pd returns "error: GEM: Unable to create single buffer window") If I switch off drx extensions in the XF86Config, pd return that there is no glx extentions available. I read in the faq that gem can work with voodoo2. voodoo2 pci don't work on glx ! Maybe somebody tested similar configuration and can give informations about this.

Using Pd as a plugin....?
by nullpointer 27 Oct '01

27 Oct '01

Hi All, Is there a way of using PD as a plugin for a host sequencer such as Cubase/Logic? If i wanted to use the sequencing aspects of such an app but i wanted to use pd for synthesis how would i go about it? I could run them both as seperate processes and use midi to control , but what if i want to route the audio from pd directly into the app like an virtual instrument? Could i run multiple pd instances and use them as multiple instruments? I think you can do something like this with max/msp?

Any interest in a pre-alpha scheme external
by Larry Troxler 26 Oct '01

26 Oct '01

Some time ago, I wrote about how I was integrating Scheme In One Defun/Day into PD, for the purpose of more easily protoyping externs using linear code (the idea being that writing up an extern in scheme would go much more quickly then doing the same thing in C). The main problem of course, is when to do garbage collection, and I don't think this can be easily solved. Nevertheless, perphaps someone might find the code usefull. I'm using it myself to write externs that if I find usefull, can later take the time to code in C. At present it is in a really grotty state - the makefile only works for Linux, some paths are hard-coded, etc. But I was wondering if people would be interested in taking a look, if I uploaded it to the net. If I get some positive responses, I'll take the time to do that - if not, I probably won't bother. So let me know if there is interest. Larry

minor makefile mix-up
by Bill Sack 26 Oct '01

26 Oct '01

hello all, i just built and installed pd on a very new redhat system. all subsequent './configures' and 'makes' i tried on other packages failed with the mysterious error: "/usr/local/include: is not a directory" it wasn't until i did 'ls -l' on /usr/local that i saw /usr/local/include was indeed not a directory but a file! i looked at it and it turned out to be the m_pd.h from the install of pd i had just done. the install-indep part of the makefile (this is from the pd-0.34-2 tarball from Miller's site) says: install -m644 m_pd.h $(INSTDIR)/include since my linux install was brand new, there was no 'include' directory and install just renamed the m_pd.h file include and left it there. -- _________ Bill Sack wsack(a)acsu.buffalo.edu ----------------------

Fwd: Re: [PD] Readsf + writesf?
by Rory Walsh 25 Oct '01

Olaf I was just wondering if you could explain the process of whats happening in your patch, I get lost on the '0, 4.8e+007, 1e+006' which you have in a message box going to line? I presume these numbers have to do with the sampling rate and the bit size but if you have a free moment could you could maybe explain it to me? Thanks again!

Sorting samples by value
by David McCallum 25 Oct '01

25 Oct '01

I'm trying to route the samples of an audio signal (adc~, no table) according to their value. I tried using max~ and min~ to separate them but I found that max~ and min~ clip all the audio coming in, but still output their min or max value even when the incoming sample is out of range. (ie. a sample value of 3 put through a [max~ 4] comes through as 4, not nothing. (or even 0 would be nice)) This is for waveshaper algorithms where samples in certain ranges get treated differently. Any suggestions? I think I'm probably overlooking something. David McCallum
