toshiba laptop remote controls
by David McCallum 08 Mar '03

08 Mar '03

My toshiba 5100P laptop came with a remote control for... god knows what. Should anyone be interested I cooked up a little abstraction to use the remote's buttons in Pd, little more than using key and keyname. Maybe has some interest makeshift performance possibilities... I haven't quite figured out what yet. . . David McCallum . Music wants to be free . http://mentalfloss.ca/sintheta/ .

Re: [PD] help making a square wave?
by PT147＠mdx.ac.uk 08 Mar '03

Hi, Using phasor~ going into <~ 0.5 gets a proper square wave. Values of 0-1, rather than 0.5, alter pulsewidth. The output will be between 0 and 1, as opposed to -1 and 1, so you might want to rescale it, or not. Regards, Peter p.s. on a related point, how can I get impulses generated at a given frequency. I expected ==~ to do this, but it doesn't seem to work.

help making a square wave?
by David Merrill 08 Mar '03

08 Mar '03

Hi there - I've been trying to make a square wave, but my pd knowledge is a little rusty. I know of osc~ and phasor~ for a cosine and sawtooth wave, respectively, but I haven't been able to find a square-wave generator. I think I ought to be able to use an osc, and just output 1 when the output is positive, and -1 when it's negative, but I've become hung on the details. Is the following a good overview of what needs to be done? osc~ -> snapshot~ -> moses 0 -> b (one for each moses output) -> -1.0 or 1.0 -> sig~ It seems like using snapshot to turn every sample into a number so that moses can divide them around 0 is inefficient. Is there an object that deals with signals that can do what moses does? (Or just a better way to get a variable-frequency square-wave in general?) much appreciated, David Merrill dmerrill(a)media.mit.edu

asio flag
by .:nRSz:. 08 Mar '03

08 Mar '03

hi list! is it true that i have to write "pd -asio" in the command line in order to load pd with asio drivers? because when i do it like this pd shows me an explanation of the usage of flags and closes the command window again. if i dont use the asio flag i have a audio latency up to 0.4 seconds. i'm working on windows xp an a soundblaster audiogy. are there any other ways to reduce the latency so i can make "real realtime audio analyses"? best, emanuel

emi / emagic 2/6 driver problems
by sven 08 Mar '03

08 Mar '03

hello i have an emagic emi 2/6 usb audio interface that pd simply doesn't care for. i noticed other people had the same problems on the list before, but i never saw a definitive answer/statement regarding whether anyone actually got 6 channels of output from one of these boxes in pd. i can get 2 channels of output. but that's just not good enough, is it? when i run pd from the command line with the -asio flag, i seem to bypass the 2/6's wdm drivers, and everything looks like it's loading fine (the dos window states that it has recognized 2 ins and 6 outs) but then, at the last minute i get an error in pd.dll that forces pd to close. any advice? i'm using the latest (v1.5) drivers for the 2/6 on my windows millenium edition pIII 850mhz blah blah machine. thanks. -sven

pix_film+separator=pd_crash!?
by 01ek 08 Mar '03

08 Mar '03

PD 0.35/GEM 0.87 on Windows 2000 I get consistent crashing when I turn on a Gem chain that has either a pix_film, pix_movie, or pix_video AND a separator object. Who can tell me why. I can't find any answers in the archive, although Dmotd had the same problem and wrote about it last september. Any ideas at all? Is this a documented bug? Thanks in advance Alexander

hi, use pix_buf instead of the separator objekt. cheers rainer >From: "01ek" <01ek(a)sat.qc.ca> >To: <pd-list(a)iem.kug.ac.at> >Subject: [PD] pix_film+separator=pd_crash!? >Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2003 19:48:47 -0800 > >PD 0.35/GEM 0.87 on Windows 2000 > >I get consistent crashing when I turn on a Gem chain that has either a >pix_film, pix_movie, or pix_video AND a separator object.
