[OT] Workshop in Graz
by Miha Tomsic 17 Dec '02

17 Dec '02

Hello! I heard there was a PD workshop in Graz last weekend (if I got that right). As I hear it was just three people at the end. Pitty I wasn't there, but I heard what they have done. Borut played it at our Radio Student (www.radiostudent.si). Was it advertised anywhere because I don't remember seing anything about it? Thanks and take care, Miha...

nubile young pd question
by star morin 16 Dec '02

16 Dec '02

hi all. i'm fairly new to pd, and have a question along those lines: i've created a 2 inlet sub patch called [vari-meter] to handle drawing of arrays (or a metronomicly refreshed tablewrite~ for the pendants :^). inlet 1 for signal, and inlet 2 for refresh speed. so far so good - it works. i'd like to make the array name an argument to the patch to make it an abstract, but can't figure out how to pass it. i've tried: [tablewrite~ $1] with a create of [vari-meter arrayname], but $1 is null. after reading some more of the docs, and it seems that arguments given to abstracts are 'create parameters' - how do i access these in a sub patch? thanks - star

PD ASIO
by Thomas Grill 16 Dec '02

16 Dec '02

Hi all, i did some experiments with version 0.36 and i'm a bit disappointed that the audio (asio) part hasn't improved yet. I don't know if it's a PortAudio issue but i find it quite lame that under Windows (with a RME HDSP Multiface, digital loopback) i can't get stable audio with effective latencies under 30 ms. That may be ok for just playing sounds but it's not for live processing of instruments (for example percussion). The other thing is that using 18 in/18 out channels without any dsp load costs 16-20% of cpu (PIII 800) - that's just for audio IO! Has anyone had more success? How can the situation by improved? It would also be less confusing if the devices listed with the -listdev flag (now one-based) would exactly correspond with those specified by the -audiodev flag (zero-based) best greetings, Thomas

Hello, my system freezes trying to start pd with "-32bit" flag using current alsa-cvs and rc6. As I somehow remember some problems being around concerning alsa-oss-emulation, I would like to know, which is the latest release working? what are the best options to start pd with (original hammerfall 9652)? Thanks, Michael

Hello list, I'm having trouble getting zexy to run on windows ME. When I run z_install, I get "file not found zexy.dll", and there is indeed no such file on my computer. Shouldn't there be, after I unzipped everythingin the right place? Thanks for the help, Guilherme

scramble~
by Tim Blechmann 16 Dec '02

16 Dec '02

Hi list, does anyone have experience with scramble~. i've connected everything like in the example, but it doesn't make any sound... i'm quite new to pd, so it is probably a stupid mistake. maybe someone could have a look at it. and help me. thanks for your time...

soundfiler threading
by eskogen＠usfamily.net 15 Dec '02

15 Dec '02

hi list, i'm doing a live set this week and i wish i would have mentioned this sooner. it's getting to be the one most troubling thing about using pd live. i'm running win2k pd .35-1 and i get about a one second delay every time i use soundfiler to load a sample. i'm using the USB Quattro with ASIO (to good results) and the latency of everything else is acceptable. is there any possibility that soundfiler could be put in a seperate thread? are there any other options to load in a .wav file? these files aren't more than 1 or 2 megabytes, i'm suprised there's such a problem. the only solution i can think of is to readsf~ the sound into a table, as that seems to be threaded or something as to keep the sound from skipping. ANY help at this late hour would be appreciated! --eric ------ http://USFamily.Net/info - Unlimited Internet - From $8.99/mo! ------

math floor function?
by eskogen＠usfamily.net 13 Dec '02

13 Dec '02

hi list i need two functions, but i'm having trouble coding abstractions for them and i can't find any suitable external. i need what i think is a "floor", to output the lowest number for any stream of floats. i also need a "top" which would output the highest received number in a stream of floats. the "minmax" object does great in this area, but it requires a list. any hints? thanks, --eric ------ http://USFamily.Net/info - Unlimited Internet - From $8.99/mo! ------
