polyphonic sequencer
by dafydd hughes 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

Hi all I'm trying to figure out how to get a polyphonic sequencer working, and wondering if anybody's got suggestions. So far I seem to have had most success by using a [poly] object to route midi to several pool directories. Am I missing something that would make this simpler? Has anybody done this? cheers dafydd

cross-platform font compatibility
by Matthias Blau 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

Hi list, does anybody know a way to at least loosely ensure cross-platform compatibility of the fonts used both for pd objects/messages/comments and for guis as well? I frequently see that patches put together in linux look ugly (sometimes unreadable) in win. Concerning the pd main font, it usually is smaller in Win than in linux. When changed from 10 to 12, it becomes bigger than in linux. The gui fonts (I mainly use helvetica) must be made smaller in win (compared to linux) in order to get a compatible look. I think that one of the main advantages of pd is that it is rather platform-independnet, so a solution would really help here. Thanks, Matthias

Sending a bang to a [trigger anything]
by Spencer Russell 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

This came up on the archives in 2002, and Miller agreed that it didn't seem right, but there hasn't been anything about it since then that I could find. Was there further discussion that this is a "feature?" > On Mon, Sep 09, 2002 at 05:42:03AM +0200, Maurizio Umberto Puxeddu wrote: >> >> Hi. >> Sending a bang to a "trigger anything" object I get 0. >> Is it a feature? >> Thanks, >> >> Maurizio Umberto Puxeddu. > This seems wrong.

cvs checkout cheatsheet
by derek holzer 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

Hi all, what happened to the CVS checkout cheatsheet that used to be on pure-data.sourceforge.net? I can never remember the whole string for getting the externals etc etc, and it was nice to copy-paste that one. d. -- derek holzer ::: http://www.umatic.nl ---Oblique Strategy # 129: "Put in earplugs"

fiddle crash
by Zachary Crockett 09 Oct '05

09 Oct '05

fiddle~ is causing Pd to segfault with both of these versions of Hans's OS X apps: Pd-0.38-4-extended-RC1 and Pd-0.39test2-extended- RC0. I'm on OS 10.4.2. This causes the crash: [adc~] | [fiddle~] Turn audio computation on. I also tried adding the default arguments to fiddle~. No difference. I found it while trying out Help => Tutorials/playnow => voice-fm.pd Crash log attached. Zac

I am succesfully using Miller's suggestion of an oversampled sfread~ using block~ in a subpatch. Good luck greg.

hidden files, fontsize
by Peter Plessas 07 Oct '05

07 Oct '05

Dear List, this is not too important but i wonder sometimes if... 1.) One could change the behavior of displaying hidden files and directories in open panels. This is esp. cumbersome when one steps through a /home directory. If this is a small change in the pd sources to change, i would love to know. 2.) Has anyone yet invented a sed/awk/whatever script to change the fontsizes of all pd patches in a given directory? that's it! Have fun! Peter

performance-problem with [print] on pd-0.39 on win
by Roman Haefeli 05 Oct '05

05 Oct '05

hi miller, hi list printing a lot of text eats my cpu on win and pd-0.39. i didn't test on pd-0.38, though, but on pd-0.37 i didn't get a specially high cpu-load, since (i'm only assuming) the output is printed to the shell and not to a tk/tcl-gui. printing the line [eins zwei drei vier fuenf sechs sieben acht neun zehn( 40 times a second eats 95% of cpu (win, pentium M @ 600MHz). same test on linux: no remarkable rising of the cpu-load. sorry to say that, but this is one reason for me to wish back the old 'print-to-shell'-style. another is, that the 'new' pd-window is very big and the fontsize is big, too (btw: is it possible to set the fontsize of the pd-window?) excuse me, if there are some important advantages, that i don't see yet. cheers roman ___________________________________________________________ Gesendet von Yahoo!

determine local IP address
by Urs Liska 04 Oct '05

04 Oct '05

Hello list, is there any method of getting the IP address of the computer the patch is running on? I would like to simplify the process of connecting two patches by sending the second patch the IP address of the first patch. Thanks Urs -- Urs Liska GlÃŒmerstr. 5 D-79102 Freiburg www.graft-music.com www.suonomobile.de [Pd 0.39.0, WinXP]
