Midi device number out of range?
by Rory Walsh 20 Oct '01

20 Oct '01

Hi everyone, can anyone tell me how to fix this problem. When ever I start pd.34 I get a message in the dos window, midinopen: MMSYSTEM002 A device Id has been used that is out of range for your system. Is there a way I can fix this? One probeelm is that the settings tab has been disabled from our computers by the system administrator? That's not good right?

by rat＠telecoma.net 19 Oct '01

19 Oct '01

hi, i modified the cube geos into a cuboid geos. so one can now doing square cube rectangle and cuboid with one object, which is sometimes maybe quite useful. as i dont have a clue how to integrate a new geos into the gem library i just call it cube for me. if anyone is interested in it, u can find it at: http://people.telecoma.net/rat/gem/cuboid.html and aehm ;-) as i have no clue about c++ either i give no guarantie what it is doing - maybe one of the wizards take a look at the code. cheers erich

building objects with arguments contained in the gui box?
by Rory Walsh 19 Oct '01

19 Oct '01

Hi, can anyone give me any ideas on how i can include arguments within the gui frame of my object, for example i have an object that would be far more user-friendly if i could put the first argument into the graphical object box, like putting a '1000' beside metro, maybe someone can tell me where i could see some simple source code with this explained? I checked out Iohannes's 'How to write PD externals' but i could not see anything about this! Thanks in advance!

[PD]Bug?
by Serge 18 Oct '01

18 Oct '01

HI! I don't know if this is a bug, but after a while working (PD-0.34.1, win2k) PD sort of hangs - no input from keyboard in PD (in WIndows everythings is working), when audio compurtation started it's overloading (110, 117 %) cpu. I dont have anything unusual in my patch, in countrary, i'm pretty at the beginning, and it is supposed to grow. In the patch at this moment i'm doing some simple computation and a little bit bandpass filtering. Thanks for any help. Serge

Dear list, I have several applications where I need to delete objects but the only mean to do this that I'm aware of is to do it by hand. Is there aay way to delete objects by messages or must I hack the sources? --PLu

[devel/externs] open_via_path() in msvc
by Krzysztof Czaja 17 Oct '01

17 Oct '01

hi, why, in an external compiled under msvc6, passing a file descriptor returned by open_via_path() causes read() to set errno to EBADF, while after closing it and calling open() directly, I have a readable fd (with the same value btw.)? If the answer is obvious, I apologize, but it looks like msvc has choosen to be a hostile environment for me. This closing/reopening dance is unnecessary under linux. Krzysztof

by HENRY Damien 17 Oct '01

17 Oct '01

Dear list. I'm now playing with the so powerful table object. Is there a way to know the size of an array ? I'm using tabread4~ and the "set" message to select witch table I whant to read. But all the diferent table i "set" have diferent size. So I whant that my algorithme know the size of the aray that tabread4~ is curently reading. In practice my tables are in another patch. Does anyone have meet the same situation and find a solution ? Thanks. Cheers. Damien.

Re: Digidesign incompatibility
by Norbert Math 17 Oct '01

17 Oct '01

hello, i quote from a message by Jørgen Mortensesn (joergen(a)po.ia.dk): (see http://iem.kug.ac.at/mailinglists/pd-list/2001-09/0250.html) i dont know if anybody has worked this problem out until now ... Hi! I can only say I have the same problem! Exactly! It was not there under Windows 95. I had a similar problem on another computer where I wanted to install Pro Tools 5.1 an DIGI01. Even though Prot Tools was not at all startede up it occupied the sound in and sound out device. So I had to buy another more humble soundcard from Soundblaster - and work with this also in the computer - just to have pd and pro tools on the same platform. Wish somebody could manage this out.

I own the digidesign digi001 card which is known for it's incompatibility with many other devices though all my other audio apps do work smoothly. the digidesign wave driver can't support more then one audio application at the same time but I'm trying to run PD with nothing in the background. > > any help will do and please remember, i'm a beginner. > > Best, Ishai > > >
