GUI idea and some other thoughts
by J. Scott Hildebrand 05 Aug '03

05 Aug '03

in my computer architecture classes we used a program called MAXplus, which is created by a company called altera. that software is used to design CPUs, memory modules, all kinds of stuff. there are a lot of similarities between that program's interface and Pd and Max/MSP. one thing that i'd like to see in a new version of Pd is the ability to zoom into a patch to see the details, or zoom out to see the whole thing... kind of like in a waveform editor or a sequencer when you can be really close to see all the detail or you can zoom out and see the entire picture. also, in my opinion Pd is weak as a typical artist's tool to make music. it's great for multimedia artists and sound artists, but for people who are interested in more traditional forms of music might have a really tough time. has anybody attempted to make a full-fledged editor/sequencer/recording expansion for Pd? i'm thinking along the lines of Premiere, Protools, Broadcast, Logic, Cubase, etc. BUT with audio/video/MIDI capability and somehow being able to connect each event to others in the traditional Pd manner. i know it's a lot of work but might be easier for somebody who's written such a program that's open-source... to learn a bit about Pd's framework and port/modify their existing stuff. scott -------------------------------------------------------------------- "640K ought to be enough for anybody." -- Bill Gates, 1981 --------------------------------------------------------------------

GridFlow workshop / Atelier sur GridFlow (fwd)
by Mathieu Bouchard 05 Aug '03

05 Aug '03

forward: a workshop on jMax and GridFlow, in Ottawa, ON. PureData users welcome too. We would help interested people in other cities (esp: Montréal, QC) get in touch with each other to travel together if there is opportunity to do so. (btw: I am in Montréal) NOTE: if you write to Alexandre, you should CC your mail to me, as Alexandre is away for two more weeks. Other note: the workshop will be followed by a concert by the Montréal-based duo "Unisexe" (Michal Seta & Lise Comtois). The concert will be at the Mercury Lounge, also in downtown Ottawa. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 04 Jul 2003 15:48:45 -0400 From: artlist(a)lists.artengine.ca To: "artlist(a)lists.artengine.ca" <artlist(a)lists.artengine.ca> Subject: GridFlow workshop / Atelier sur GridFlow On july 19th and 20th, Artengine presents an introductory workshop on jMax and GridFlow, with Mathieu Bouchard and Alexandre Castonguay. jMax is a visual programming environment for interactive real-time music and multimedia. GridFlow is a multi-dimensional dataflow processing library, specialized in image and video, designed to integrate with jMax. Both are open-source software. The principles of those applications are simple: the software's genericity invite the creation of effects from simple components, instead of imposing readymade effects. Participation in the workshop is limited, to permit hands-on experimentation with the provided equipment. The focus of the workshop will be on "real-life" interfaces and video. The fee is 20 $ and the location is room 205 of the Visual Arts Department, University of Ottawa, 100 Laurier Avenue East. For registration please contact: Alexandre Castonguay <acastonguay(a)artengine.ca> * jMax http://www.ircam.fr/jmax * GridFlow http://www.artengine.ca/jmax/gridflow =================== Les 19 et 20 juillet prochains, Artengine présente un atelier sur jMax et GridFlow, avec Mathieu Bouchard et Alexandre Castonguay. jMax est un environnement de programmation visuelle pour la réalisation d'applications musicales et multimédia interactives. GridFlow est une librairie de traitement à flot de données multi-dimensionnel, spécialisée en image et vidéo, et conçue pour s'intégrer avec jMax. Les deux sont des logiciels open-source. Le principe de ces logiciels est simple: par leur généricité, ils incitent à la création d'effets à partir de composantes simples, au lieu d'imposer des effets « readymade ». Le nombre de participants est limité, afin de permettre l'expérimentation pratique sur l'équipement fourni. L'atelier portera sur les interfaces avec l'extérieur et sur la vidéo. Les frais seront de 20 $. L'atelier se déroulera dans la salle 205 du département des Arts Visuels de l'Université d'Ottawa, 100 avenue Laurier est.

Re: MIDI Input devices missing from Pd 0.37-7
by ix 04 Aug '03

04 Aug '03

it seems to be an incompatibility of some sort between portmidi and midiyoke, where you see nothing but midiyoke devices when it is installed. uninstalling midiyoke fixed the problems...another more compatible option for midi routing can be downloaded from musiclab.com, midioverlan and the free 'midi connection center'. after ridding bot computers of midiyoke, 0.37 seems to work well on a dedicated laptop, slaving to midi control from the main PC and sending audio back via jsndbus instantiated within fxteleport. sounds a bit convoluted maybe but works great with buffer sizes set around 768 samples but the end result is lossless output recordable into a host on the main computer with no worries about lack of decent ASIO drivers on the slaves..(drones?). ix

karplus strongman & tcl tk questions
by Chris McCormick 03 Aug '03

03 Aug '03

Hello, Is it possible to compile Pd without tcl/tk (for text-only use). Would it be worth me making a build/adding flags to be able to do this? I should think this would be of some use when porting Pd to platforms such as hand-held devices. Regards, Chris. _________________________________ chris(a)mccormick.cx http://www.mccormick.cx http://www.hypercube.com.au http://www.sciencegirlrecords.com
