Re: [PD-dev] numberbox sizes + fonts

you mean the size? you can adjust it via preferences. (right click) sme. ----- Original Message ----- From: Andre Schmidt To: PD-dev Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2002 2:32 PM Subject: [PD-dev] numberbox sizes + fonts hi, has some1 seen this too on pd0.35-1 http://www.vju-tv.net/test_courier.gif compare the two numberboxes on top to the nb on bottom... strange... i've seen the same problem on many of the sample patches... this is on windows2000, i wonder if its on linux/osx too... ... as i find courier somehow "dirty" and my font (PUFO) "steril" i made some mods... http://www.vju-tv.net/test_puco.gif dont pay attention to the capitals ! they are still under construction... i also added 2pix for the height (before 8x11, now 8x13) good/bad ? yes, the (empty space)height is still smaller than couriers but i think this is big enough !? (atleast for objects&co, on normal text they are MAYBE too close) as courier is not good readable under 12pt i thought i make "simple" fonts starting from 5x7pix(~6pt) and then "morphing" on the way to courier at 12pt. after 12pt we can use courier thats nice readable... ... btw. is this used and how ? (from pd.tk) <snip> proc iemgui_toggle_font {id} { set vid [string trimleft $id .] set var_iemgui_gn_f [concat iemgui_gn_f_$vid] global $var_iemgui_gn_f set $var_iemgui_gn_f [expr [eval concat $$var_iemgui_gn_f] + 1] if {[eval concat $$var_iemgui_gn_f] > 2} {set $var_iemgui_gn_f 0} if {[eval concat $$var_iemgui_gn_f] == 0} {$id.gnfs.fb configure -text "courier" -font {courier 10 bold}} if {[eval concat $$var_iemgui_gn_f] == 1} {$id.gnfs.fb configure -text "helvetica" -font {helvetica 10 bold}} if {[eval concat $$var_iemgui_gn_f] == 2} {$id.gnfs.fb configure -text "times" -font {times 10 bold}} } </snip> cheers -andre

$ expansion
by Maurizio Umberto Puxeddu 10 Sep '02

10 Sep '02

Hello. Are messages like $1-something-$2 supposed to be expanded correctly by PD? I'm puzzled because I only get the first dollar expanded while the second is considered as literal. For example I get things like 1043-something-$2 I read the manual section but I found no mention to limitations of this kind. I attached an example. Maurizio Umberto Puxeddu.

featurewish (or is it areaedy there?)
by Andreas Sumerauer 10 Sep '02

10 Sep '02

Anyway, I did not find it. Can we have a reload button + hotkey that reloads and reinitializes the whole instrument with all the subpatches? I am finding myself constantly closing and reopening my current synthpatch. Or is there a more convinient way to do it? Is it possible to send a commandline to an already opened instance of pd? thanks Andreas

Pd + GEM
by Rodrigo F. Cadiz 10 Sep '02

10 Sep '02

Hi folks Anyone could give me advice in the state of the art of Pd+GEM in both Linux and MacOSX? I have the following situation: I have a Linux machine at home (where I work most of the time) and also a PowerBook laptop with OS9/OSX. I am working on a interactive music/dance project using realtime computer music and the DIEM wireless sensor systems. I need to use the laptop in the real performances because its portable and requires less space than the desktop. I have built a first prototype of my work in Max/MSP and it works fine. Now I want to incorporate video processing. I have the option of buying Nato and stick to that. But I don't want to do that for the following reasons: 1) I don't like MacOS9 2) I don't want to pay for Nato, and really don't like Nato. 3) I like open software. 4) I love Pd, I think is better than Max/MSP. 5) I don't have full access to the laptop, so I need to develop on my linux box. But I need to have a reliable platform for my project. I have never use GEM and I don't know how good it works under OSX. I also don't know how good Pd runs under OSX. My idea is to be able to develop using my Linux box and then use the laptop as my realtime performance device. I need at least to be able to receive MIDI input information from the sensors. Any suggestions or experiences are more than welcome. I have also considered jMax + DIPS. Any comments? Thanks for your reply. You can write me to rcadiz(a)northwestern.edu -- Rodrigo F.

convolution stuff
by J. Scott Hildebrand 09 Sep '02

09 Sep '02

i think this is really close to working, but i need a little bit of help figuring some things out. marius schebella is responsible for the majority of the pd patch and it seems to be working pretty well. my external overlap~.c basically just takes the filters from a .bin file and sends them out to be used in the convolution. before i had outlet_new(&x->x_obj, &s_signal); outlet_new(&x->x_obj, &s_signal); but then i changed them to &s_float because pd didn't like me sending signal outputs to an array. anyway i again have a seg fault but i've narrowed it down to my external so if anybody can help me out, i think that this convolution patch will be useful for a lot of people. you can use any wav file you want, and if you'd like the hrir.bin with all of the 2500 different filters that my external uses, let me know and i'll email it to you. it's only 2MB. thanks, scott -------------------------------------------------------------------- "640K ought to be enough for anybody." -- Bill Gates, 1981 --------------------------------------------------------------------

I read: > i got pd running with oss emulation and pd -blocksize 2048 but it's > still not perfect (high load + latency...) did you try jack && hdsp with some jack enabled apps or maybe the preliminary jack I/O patch for pd that is somewhere around ? regards, x -- chris(a)lo-res.org Postmodernism is german romanticism with better http://pilot.fm/ special effects.

subpatch always open
by Maurizio Umberto Puxeddu 09 Sep '02

09 Sep '02

Hello. I got a subpatch that is always open when I open the parent patch. Also if I edit the subpatch I get messages like bad window path name ".x81656e8" on the console. This happens even if it the patch is nested more deeply. For example if I create (by adding a new object or using ctrl-d or editing the object) an instance of an abstraction containing that subpatch, it opens. Any hint? Thanks, Maurizio Umberto Puxeddu.

delread~ question
by Andreas Sumerauer 09 Sep '02

09 Sep '02

Is the fractional part of the delay time simply truncated or is it rounded to the next integer? And another one: I would love to have a (noninterpolating) delay that accepts delay times in samples instead of ms. Does something like that exist? thanks Andreas

[announce] more Cheese!
by Andreas Sumerauer 09 Sep '02

I've upgraded my CheesyPhyMoBass. Please have a look. http://www.soundbytes.de/patches/pd/more_cheese.zip Main features are: - new allpass delay interpolator allows to play the upper range. * No more blowing up feedback delays! * expanded timbre variations . - enhanced Excitation module. It has a nice guitarish flavour now. Any comments are welcome. best regards Andreas
