Modular Switching/Matrix
by Greg Surges 24 Oct '06

24 Oct '06

Hi all, I'm a music composition/technology major at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, currently taking a course in PD, and also studying it in private lessons. I am wondering if anyone has any experience with matrix-type switching, i.e. a modular system in which any module can connect to any other module in any order. I'm especially concerned with expandability, in my current layout, if I have n objects, I have to have n-squared switches. Above a certain number, adding a module could become very time-consuming. I'm curious about using an array with stored coordinates. I also need the ability for the system to allow recursive patching. I'd really appreciate it if anyone has any insight into this problem and could possibly shine some light towards a solution. Thanks! -Greg

I was confused by the fact that when you print pd-files from [textfile] to the pd-output-window eg $ would appear like "\\$", and ; as "\\\;". Sorry for the inconvenience.

That's what I meant. Also that software PWM has not been implemented with Firmata either AFAIK. Martin

[PD-announce] Patching Circle @ Polytechnic University, Brooklyn
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 24 Oct '06

24 Oct '06

http://idmi.poly.edu/node/46 Patching Circle @ Polytechnic University - Integrated Digital Media Institute: An informal gathering of patching and patchers (Max/MSP/Jitter, Pure Data and.. even Processing if you want..) Beginners and Experienced welcome. Work on school projects, personal projects, ask for help, help others, or just patch quietly to yourself, in a room full of other people patching patches and helping other people patch. Or not. Depending on the turnout, we will see how soon we will organize the next. I think every week is too much, maybe once a month, we shall see? Tuesday Oct 24th 6:30 (ish) Polytechnic University Brooklyn Campus 6 Metro Tech Center Rogers Hall room 207 You'll probably need to call to get it: 718 260 3693 Map: http://www.poly.edu/directions/ .hc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "[W]e have invented the technology to eliminate scarcity, but we are deliberately throwing it away to benefit those who profit from scarcity." -John Gilmore _______________________________________________ PD-announce mailing list PD-announce(a)iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce

Re: [PD] a few beginner's questions
by robbert van hulzen 24 Oct '06

24 Oct '06

and yes oh yes, that did the trick! thanks a lot for that one, mike. it also solved my stripdir & ftos questions (see "samplemapper?" post). just wondering: does anyone know why some of these objects were not included in the latest (?) pd-ext distro?

hi list, I could not find a sufficiant documentation for the part_source object. is it possible to have a circle as source? I tried disk (disc) but the arguments are not selfspeaking to me. marius.

samplemapper?
by robbert van hulzen 24 Oct '06

24 Oct '06

in trying to emulate a patch environment for my roland spd-s (see post "roland spd-s"), i thought it might be a good id to use derek holzer's "samplemapper" abstraction. however: warning (coll): no coll file '/Users/robbert/Music/patches/pdstuff/spd-loader.txt' ftos ... couldn't create stripdir ... couldn't create is what i get. i suppose i'm missing some objects (another pd version? missing libs?) and i'm not treating the creation argument right. i'd be grateful for any answers. cheers, robbert -- Pd-0.39.2-extended-test5 mac osx 10.4.7, 15" G4 PB 1.67 GHz, 1 GB ram

roland spd-s
by robbert van hulzen 23 Oct '06

23 Oct '06

i'm looking for a pd version of the roland spd-s (sampling pad with 9 drum / percussion playing surfaces) patching system (assigning sounds to pads, being able to create mute groups, having a possibility to have the velocity have an effect or not etc). anyone out there who has sth like that lying around? if not, i'll try to build one. i'll use it as an abstraction, which brings me to another question: i understood abstractions take creation arguments. could i implement something that will have the creation arg be the name of the patch, and save its settings? would that be a rrad sort of approach? as you can see, i've picked up some info here and there, but i don't really know what i'm talking about. de klok en de klepel... any help would be much appreciated! cheers, robbert ps does anyone on the list happen to be at the banff centre at the moment or in the time till 2 nov?

Analysing sound for further processing > react with graphics
by Adrian 23 Oct '06

23 Oct '06

Dear pdlist members, i so far only used the graphical environment of pd. But now i'm searching for ways how the graphics could react to sound. To things like: * tempo change * volume change * pan change * spectrum change can anybody send me some further info about how to analyse incoming sound? -- another incomplete website: http://conficere.ch/pds

cool video
by Mathieu Bouchard 22 Oct '06

22 Oct '06

Now pd patches may be easier to modify continuously, which may be essential for totally live coding. My former experiences in live coding always involved stopping the video stream for one second while i connect something new at an unplanned point in the patch. My next live performances will almost certainly involve the following: http://sonicvariable.goto10.org/downloads/dd/insert.mpeg And congrats to Chun Lee for coding this! _ _ __ ___ _____ ________ _____________ _____________________ ... | Mathieu Bouchard - tél:+1.514.383.3801 - http://artengine.ca/matju | Freelance Digital Arts Engineer, Montréal QC Canada
