Still stuck in the dark ages with Fedora 1 so my power button doesn't do anything! I will look into this more though. Thanks for your help.

Re: [PD] help with rfft~

> <snip>I guess what you are saying is that convolution is just amplitude > modulation of two signals frequency values, right? I think AM is only time domain...Having looked at www.dspguide.com the correct equations are, unlike the last thing I posted (sorry!): ReY[f] = ReX[f]ReH[f] - ImX[f]ImH[f] ImY[f] = ImX[f]ReH[f] + ReX[f]ImH[f] Re = real (cos), Im = imaginary (sin) for two inputs X and H. Haven't tried this yet but I think it should sound better than the other way I suggested, which I think is more how non-FFT vocoders work. > <snip>Is this some way of getting better frequency resolution - more samples > in the same ammount of time? > If you just had an [inlet~] connected to an [outlet~] with a [block~ 64 > 4] how would you signal be changed (in the time domain)?

Overlap x4: | 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3|......... ...| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3|...... ......| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3|... .........| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3| 0 1 2 3| Each block is one of these: |0 1 2 3| In the normal case there is no overlap, they just follow each other directly. With overlap of 4, there are 4 being calculated at once, shifted equally in time. So with block size of 64, each new block will be 64 samples long, and a new one will start every 16 samples. These 4 blocks are then added at the outlet~s. The point is that each block will see a different portion of the input from each inlet~, which is essential for doing the overlap-and-add. ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?

pd patch for profiling
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 29 Nov '05

29 Nov '05

Anyone have a pd patch that they use for performance profiling that they might want to share? I'd like to do some tests. .hc ________________________________________________________________________ ____ If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. - Eldridge Cleaver

Re: true-type-font versus bitmap-font
by Jason Plumb 29 Nov '05

> ps. as the topic says, i would still like to hear why we should use ttf > fonts in pd... well, for big sizes ttf would be ok (if they are not used > in reference/docs/tuts and so on...) Just my $0.02 on this... As somebody already pointed out, bitmap fonts look different on different resolutions, and the consistency "problem" gets even worse when you consider displays with higher DPI/PPI. As displays get bigger and the number of pixes per inch continues to increase, I worry that bitmap fonts just won't hold up (assuming they're never scaled..and even then they're ugly). TTF on the other hand scale quite nicely... Antialiasing is another plus for going with TTF. You just can't get a nice, "smooth", easy-on-the-eyes render with bitmap fonts. I know the overall issue is not an easy one to solve...but I'd vote for TTF if/where possible. -jason http://noisybox.net

tracking the position of a repeated form in gem
by matias kapo 29 Nov '05

29 Nov '05

hi pd friends... i have a question , i been experimenting with the repeat object in gem to create visual stuff, i would like to know if its posible to track the position (in a x,y,z axis) of a repeated object ( sphere, cube, etc) here is a pic for a better understanding: http://www.racapapu.net/spheres.html Do anybody have tried something like this before? Any idea, patch, or suggestion would be really apreciated. many thanx matias -- matias kapo matiaskapo(a)fastmail.fm -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Does exactly what it says on the tin

[OT] Edirol FA-101 under Linux
by Stefan Turner 29 Nov '05

29 Nov '05

Hi all First post for a long time! This has been asked before but I don't think it was ever answered... I'm looking to upgrade my laptop soundcard to something with at least 8 inputs (and preferably MIDI in and at least one XLR preamp). The Edirol FA-101 sounds ideal and is apparently supported by Freebob ( freebob.sf.net ). Just wondering, has anybody got this working with Pd under Linux? Or if not are there any other recommended alternatives suitable for a laptop? Thanks Stefan Turner ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

scrolllist 0.1
by Yves Degoyon 29 Nov '05

29 Nov '05

hola, here is an handy object to display some text in a patch, scroll it, select some items, sounds it would be more reasonable now to work with text in the global fear watching times... with too much power given to the images... http://ydegoyon.free.fr/scrolllist.tar.gz ( only for linux here but would be grateful if someone would compile it on osx, windows, i forgot that brand since 2000 ) enjoy!! saludos, sevy

pd and rewire
by Boy Ronin 29 Nov '05

29 Nov '05

By now I'm sure you are all sick of this questions, but I'll ask anyway. Does PD currently support Rewire? I have read back through some old posts and other sites on the internet, all of them say no. However most of these messages dated back about 2 years. So has this situation change? Also the reason given for it not being implemented was that pd is not commercial, however the guys over at Buzz have rewire working and they too are a non commercial project? Also Max has rewire support and there are some "patches" out there to get Max bits working in PD has anyone achieved this with rewire. I'm relatively new to the world or PD so perhaps I'm overly simplifying things and being a little naive. This is an area that I am very interested in persuing, however if its a dead end, then its a dead end and time can be used for something that is a little more realistic/attainable. Thanks.
