shouldn't soundfiler by default *not* add filename extensions?
by Matthias Blau 13 Oct '06

13 Oct '06

Hi list, I often use soundfiler to write data from within pd to wav files. When soundfiler is given a file name it automatically adds a .wav extension if it is not explicitely given. (I suspect this is the way it works for the other supported file formats as well). So what? Imagine a user uses savepanel to choose a filename "myfile" when "myfile.wav" is already there: Well, soundfiler adds .wav and overwrites "myfile.wav" without any further notice. savepanel would only warn the user if he/she had typed "myfile.wav". This problem could easily be avoided if soundfiler wouldn't add the extension. The only drawback would be that if one forgets to give the correct extension one may end up with files whose type/format cannot be deduced from their names. I personally consider this drawback much less severe than the risk of accidentally overwriting existing files. What do you think? --Matthias

new to pd, trying to build
by Hector Centeno 13 Oct '06

13 Oct '06

Hi, I'm trying to build the whole pd using the checkout-developer-layout.sh script and then running packages/make. I've been sorting out some errors (mainly missing libraries) but now I can't get pass this one: MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.3 bash build.sh pd gcc build-release-shared FLEXTLIB=@executable_path/../extra FLEXTINC=../flext/source FLEXTSYS=/home/hector/Desktop/pd-cvs/pure-data/packages/build/lib/pd/extra make[1]: Entering directory `/home/hector/Desktop/pd-cvs/pure-data/externals/grill/flext' ./buildsys/gnumake.mak:20: *** "NAME variable must be defined (name of target)". Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/hector/Desktop/pd-cvs/pure-data/externals/grill/flext' make: *** [flext] Error 2 For some reason gnumake is not getting the NAME variable (the call from build-gcc.sh is not including it). I commented out the checking of NAME and SRCS inside gnumake.mak but then I get an error related to ld not finding libflex-pd. Should I continue trying to build from CVS? I noticed that the only pd-extended package is an outdated version... and looks like 0.40 is out already according to the download section. Sorry if I 'm bothering to much with a newbie problem... I'm finding difficult the process of building and installing a current PD with all the externals. Thanks for any help! Hector

Fwd: Re: [PD] Writing a MIDI file...or at least a qlist...to disc
by Kyle Klipowicz 12 Oct '06

12 Oct '06

Here's the patch by the way, it was sent off-list. ~Kyle ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Kyle Klipowicz <kyleklip(a)gmail.com> Date: Oct 11, 2006 4:41 PM Subject: Re: Re: [PD] Writing a MIDI file...or at least a qlist...to disc To: Richard Bowers <richard.bowers(a)ntlworld.com> Hi Richard~ This is not a silly question! Sequencing is one of the biggest pains for many Pd users. I think this solution would be fine, since these things don't take up much space as text. Textfile also allows appending. I would suggest using inter-onset intervals (IOI's) to keep track of your notes. For example, 100 65 96 could be 100 ms from the previous note at pitch 65 and velocity 96. You could use velocity of 0 to release the specific pitches. Anyway, here is an example, as well as the list-help file. Be warned, I don't have a midi device here at work, so it may not work properly! But the general principle should be OK. ~Kyle On 10/11/06, Richard Bowers <richard.bowers(a)ntlworld.com> wrote: > > Thanks for your help, Kyle.

What does number2 for?
by PSPunch 12 Oct '06

12 Oct '06

Fellows, Sorry to ask such a newbie question. Over the last few weeks I've been fiddling with PD, so many times have I questioned the difference between number boxes (Ctrl+3) and number2 (Ctrl+Shift+n), and then gave up not finding an answer. Other than subtle difference in behavior, I could not tell the difference. Is the significance of number2 documented anywhere? Any help appreciated.. -- David Shimamoto

pix_video 'off-target' in ext-5 w/ iSight
by Pete Hindle 12 Oct '06

12 Oct '06

Hi; I built a patch under extended-4 that used pix_video and counter. Under extended-5, the pix_video renders the video stream in an odd way on my machine: I only get a section of the image with an iSight, but I get the whole thing with a normal DV camera. Can anybody tell me why, and how to fix it? Also, counter seems to be acting differently... is anybody else getting this? Pete

GridFlow 0.8.4 RELEASE!
by Mathieu Bouchard 12 Oct '06

12 Oct '06

Hi, here's the first release of GridFlow in 6 months! The most notable thing might be a new fix to try to support Ruby 1.8 again, because Ruby 1.9 might be too complicated to install and/or support. However, there's a lot of other important features that I list below. I didn't list every object class that got added in it. Quite a few are Ltilib classes ported from C++ to Ruby to Pd by Heri Andria and myself at Ottawa University, but the list of them might be too long to put in an a ChangeLog of the usual size :) Please write to me if you find any problems with those. Enjoy! ------------------8<--------cut-here--------8<------------------ version 0.8.4 (2006.10.12): * resuming support for Ruby 1.8 ! * added compatibility with more recent versions of Ruby 1.9 * added compatibility with more recent versions of GCC 4.x * much more LTIlib support! (a few dozen more object classes) * [#camera]: improved * rblti supports ltilib 1.9.15 and gcc 4 * new object classes: [route2], [#polygon_each_edge], [#polygon_moment], [#polygon_radial_map], [#polygon_comparator], [#moment_polar]. * new float-only numops: sin cos tanh exp log atan2 * new float-only vecops: C.sin C.cos C.tanh C.exp C.log * [#fft] can do RGB (per channel) * can show added inlets/outlets at runtime. * can remove inlets/outlets at runtime (and erase them from screen). * much faster videodev !!! _ _ __ ___ _____ ________ _____________ _____________________ ... | Mathieu Bouchard - tél:+1.514.383.3801 - http://artengine.ca/matju | Freelance Digital Arts Engineer, Montréal QC Canada

by lalo 12 Oct '06

12 Oct '06

hi list, doin' some vst~ tests.. many synths/fx seems to work good.... i've got problems with some vst/i 1. dbGlitch ( http://illformed.org/glitch/ ) the editor gui doesn't show up 2. LiveSlice ( http://www.livelab.dk/liveslice.php ) doesn't record audio signals from its inputs 3. smartelectronix slifty, splonki and the other ones ( http://andreas.smartelectronix.com/index.php?nav=1 ) they don't work at all 4 .with any synth i've tryed the pitchbend message seems to behave wrong.... 5. monophonic synths hang notes (something wrong in the note/noteoff mechanics in vst~ i guess) try 4. and 5. with Asynth by smarteelctronix http://www.smartelectronix.com/refer.php?url=~antti/ASynth101.zip 1. 2. 3. maybe they are related to vst~ not supporting VstTimeInfo...is there a workaround? is it possible to get midi output from vst~ ? to do midi oriented vst...seems no to me at present time thanx lalo -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
