Is anybody else working with FAUST? Right now all I have to go on is http://lac.zkm.de/2006/papers/lac2006_proceedings.pdf and a rather terse program that seems to want a .dsp file any help or pointers welcomed. a.

Could it make quick modulations? The DAC716 is really good for this. It has 16-bit resolution so microtones can be quite finely tuned (10V/65536levels = 153microVolt per level). So you also need a clean power supply and careful circuit layout to avoid contaminating the control voltage with clock signals and switching noise from the rest of the circuit. It would use three or four pins of the arduino: clock, serial data, load dac, and maybe chip select if you have more than one. Martin

PD to CV redux (Arduino)
by derek holzer 11 Oct '06

11 Oct '06

I wanted to bring this super interesting discussion back, since it only touched on a few different things before wandering off into ModTracker territory (not so interesting for me...) If I wanted to program an Arduino to send out Control Voltage for a modular synth, what would the resolution be? Would it be better than MIDI? Enough for microtones? Could it make quick modulations? (I saw that the filtered PWM method which some mentioned here is not good for fast changes in voltage.) How many channels could I get out of one board? I have two, but I haven't touched them yet. Would I need extra hardware (filters etc) to modify the voltage before it goes to the synth? Would anyone be interested in helping with such a project? In the Berlin area even? Are there any programs written for the Arduino that do this already? best, d. -- derek holzer ::: http://www.umatic.nl ---Oblique Strategy # 24: "Bridges -build -burn"

Kaos 0.01 Release
by Mike McGonagle 11 Oct '06

11 Oct '06

Hello all, I have been working on a front-end for the library of Chaos Objects created by Ben Bogart and myself, and think I have come to a point where I need others to look at this... A few words about this distribution. There are two sets of externals that need to be compiled, the ones included with this release are for PPC Mac's. It should not be difficult to compile these for other platforms. I have included the source code for the externals in the same folders as the externals themselves, as this is a very simple compile. There are also help files for each of the externals, and they should tell you what those objects do. Also, it should be noted, that these externals are NOT quite the same as the latest release of Chaos. These externals differ in their ability to get more info from a Chaos Object that makes it much easier to work with in finding additional Chaotic Parameter Sets. Wow, I hope this is understandable and useful to others out there. I would really appreciate any and all suggestions/help in improving this package. I am only making this release to the list (the archive is attached), as I don't think this is quite ready to be put into the CVS archives yet... Thanks, Mike McGonagle

-nogui troubles
by Richard Bowers 10 Oct '06

10 Oct '06

Hi, I made the stupid mistake of setting the -nogui flag in the command-line input box from the PD menu and now when I launch PD, nothing appears. I thought it would still have the main interface, but no patch windows :( . I've tried reinstalling but the setting remained. Which file do I need to edit to remove the -nogui from the startup options? I'm running a fairly new version (the extended version with all the packages) on Win98. Can anyone please help? --Richard Bowers.
