acid
by Chris McCormick 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

Hi, Another question in a very general vein. I asked this on the Csound list a while back (when i was using csound) with good results. I'm trying to produce an acidy type sound (eg 303) and having trouble as my current saw-tooth-through-a-vcf just sounds pretty wimpy. Any ideas on how to fatten it up a bit? I'm not looking for a perfect reproduction of the 303 sound, just a nice acid sound. Hints? Tips? Is there some place where people post interesting Pd patches they've created for others to download at try out? Should there be? Regards, Chris. ______________________________________________________ Chris McCormick - Systems Developer - PerthWeb Pty Ltd Internet Solutions for your business!

Yves' Grid and GoP problems
by David NG McCallum 21 Sep '04

21 Sep '04

All, Has anyone had any problems using Yves' Grid object with GoP? I find that it places itself way out of the GoP canvas, and when I grab the GoP'd object in Edit mode it actually resizes the GoP window instead of moving the object. Anyone else experienced this? On WinXP, Pd .36. Cheers, David -- . . David McCallum . Music wants to be free . http://mentalfloss.ca/sintheta .

hi ben, try the method that frank barknecht uses in his angriff/seq stuff. it writes the values of guis to a textfile and can therefore be reloaded dead quick.

Enclosed shapes with "polygon" in Gem
by B. Bogart 26 Mar '04

26 Mar '04

Hey all, Before Chris's Vertex Array stuff is done, does anyone have any tricks for creating enclosed shapes using polygon? I'd like to create a cube that I can move the corner point without creating holes between the polygons. Obviously this just means that some of the polys have common vertecies, but before I get to it has anyone made an abstraction/patch that takes care of managing the shared vertecies? It would be nice to be able to do more than cubes obviously... Is the vertex array stuff going to be in .88 or .89? Thanks Ben

64 bits of a/v pleasure?
by thewade 25 Mar '04

25 Mar '04

hello, Sorry if this has been asked before. Are there plans to write an optomized version of PD for the new 64 bit desktops/laptops? (G5/AMD 64 FX) The scoop at tomshardware maked amd look really good, in 64 bit mode, and I know there are writeins for linux 2.6 on AMD 64FX... Any thoughs, as I have had a hard time getting video processing and audio synthsis running in realtime on the same laptop (or at all with some packages that use libquicktime and ffmpeg, \'cause thoes two fight)? This could be the answer. thanks, -thewade

video capture
by Danny Perreault 25 Mar '04

25 Mar '04

Hi I'd like to know if there is a way to import video in gem from a numeric converter (dazzle or a numeric dv cam). Is there an object that allows me to import the signal and use it in real time? Danny Perreault perreault.danny(a)courrier.uqam.ca

Gem/Pd crashing in edit mode in osx
by Nick Fells 25 Mar '04

25 Mar '04

Hi again. Pd 0.37 from Hans' osx installer, Gem 0.87, osx 10.2.8. After stopping rendering, I often get a crash when editing patches: 'GEM: Stop rendering pd_gui: pd process exited /Applications/Pd37.command: line 3: 457 Bus error /Applications/usr/local/bin/pd -verbose -midiindev 1 -lib /Applications/pd/extra/Gem -audiodev 2 -listdev' This seems to happen with the Gemwin open or closed: actually seems happier editing whilst rendering, bizarrely. It does the 'pd_gui' bit when I try to move or add objects. Nick

processing text
by Martin Dupras 25 Mar '04

25 Mar '04

Hi, I'm trying to read text from textfiles in pd and display sentences with the text object in gem. However, I am having a few problems. I'm reading sentences with textefile, which works well. I read lines in the textfile one by one, which I want to send as lists to the text3d object. What comes out of the textfile object is something like: "list the dog is asleep" which I need to convert to: "text the dog is asleep" How do I do that in pd? Two corollary questions: 1) is there an escape character that can be used in the message object, or otherwise a way to store the "space" character in a text object as a list element? 2) is there a way to count the number of elements in a list? Thanks! - martin
