ELF file has incorrect phentsize..?
by yon visell 06 Aug '01

06 Aug '01

hello, thanks for correcting in response to my earlier email my misnaming of my external's filename extension, which had caused Pd to attempt to load it as an abstraction. on loading, i now get an error message (pasted below) which does not seem to appear anywhere in the Pd source code, so i thought it must be linux specific? (i'm running linux on PPC) thanks for any pointers! yon visell yon(a)disinfo.net /usr/local/lib/pd/externs/smpmodel.pd_linux: /usr/local/lib/pd/externs/smpmodel.pd_linux: ELF file's phentsize not the expected size smpmodel 10 6 2 3 3 ... couldn't create

Re: [PD] the nth rootsolution and the exponential problem
by cormac mccann 06 Aug '01

Thank you for your help, Shahrokh Yadegri I did not know pd had a pow function. i was using the exponential function to get the nth root based on the rule logarithmic function =inverse of exponential To find nth root of 2: log 2^(1/n)=1/n * log 2 2^(1/n)= exp(1/n *log2) As you can see this is very awkward and it also pd's "exp" does not obey this rule scientifically it is true. ******************************************************************** How did you find the log of e to the base 10? If log in pd means the natural logarithm What does the "exp" object mean? Also:How did you find the log of e to the base 10? Here's the patch that shows "exp" object: #N canvas 51 -7 789 513 10; #X floatatom -206 249 0 0 0; #X obj -96 238 log; #X obj -63 238 log; #X msg -63 215 10; #X obj -96 261 /; #X obj -123 185 trigger bang bang; #X msg -123 162 bang; #X msg -96 215 2; #X obj -210 317 *; #X msg -208 132 1; #X obj -209 194 / 15; #X floatatom -210 340 0 0 0; #X obj -209 375 exp; #X floatatom -209 398 0 0 0; #X obj 313 288 t b f; #X msg 313 311 1; #X obj 323 353 / 1; #X text 203 264 divisor; #X msg 313 265 15; #X msg 254 266 2; #X floatatom 259 414 0 0 0; #X floatatom -96 284 0 0 0; #X text 310 245 the 15th root; #X obj 259 379 pow 0.0666667; #X text -149 397 DOES NOT EQUAL 2^(1/15); #X obj -123 139 loadbang; #X obj -45 148 loadbang; #X text -107 113 log of 2; #X text -213 113 1/15; #X text 123 415 correct and easier; #X obj 252 215 trigger bang bang; #X msg 252 192 bang; #X obj 252 169 loadbang; #X obj 330 178 loadbang; #X text -205 10 Based on; #X text -205 36 log [2^(1/15)]= (1/15) log 2; #X text -219 61 2^(1/15)= exp( 1/15*log2); #X connect 0 0 8 0; #X connect 1 0 4 0; #X connect 2 0 4 1; #X connect 3 0 2 0; #X connect 4 0 21 0; #X connect 5 0 3 0; #X connect 5 1 7 0; #X connect 5 1 9 0; #X connect 6 0 5 0; #X connect 7 0 1 0; #X connect 8 0 11 0; #X connect 9 0 10 0; #X connect 10 0 0 0; #X connect 11 0 12 0; #X connect 12 0 13 0; #X connect 14 0 15 0; #X connect 14 1 16 1; #X connect 15 0 16 0; #X connect 16 0 23 1; #X connect 18 0 14 0; #X connect 19 0 23 0; #X connect 21 0 8 1; #X connect 23 0 20 0; #X connect 25 0 6 0; #X connect 26 0 6 0; #X connect 30 0 18 0; #X connect 30 1 19 0; #X connect 31 0 30 0; #X connect 32 0 31 0; #X connect 33 0 31 0; _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

Announce: pdx7 - fm synthesizer for pure data
by Frank Barknecht 01 Aug '01

01 Aug '01

PDX7 is a realisation of 6-Operator FM synthesis modelled loosly after the famous Yamaha DX7. It is *not* a DX7 emulation, just an exploration of FM synthesis in PD. It doesn't even sound like a DX7. ;-( Even if you are not interested in FM synthesis, pdx7 might be interesting. It includes some useful abstractions like 4-segment envelopes [altough they need more work], a silly step sequencer and a configurable PC-keyboard-to-MIDI-values-translator patch. features * 6 operators, * every algorithm you can think of, including the 32 DX7-algos * DX7-like 4-segment envelope generators for index and modulation factors, * 8 voices default - add more if your box can handle it, * virtually unlimited number of save slots * 16-step sequencer [no saving here yet] * configurable PC-keyboard-keyboard This patch is my first bigger work, that I did mainly to get familiar with PD's way of life - so don't be too critical with me... Of course pdx7 is not finished, I still work on it daily, but I thought it was time to share now. Get pdx7 at http://www.fbar.mynetcologne.de/ Have fun, -- __ __ Frank Barknecht ____ ______ ____ __ trip\ \ / /wire ______ / __// __ /__/ __// // __ \ \/ / __ \\ ___\ / / / ____/ / / / // ____// /\ \\ ___\\____ \ /_/ /_____/ /_/ /_//_____// / \ \\_____\\_____\ /_/ \_\
