Re: [PD] tabread / write broken on 64bit AMD Linux

[ann] PDX7 V2
by Frank Barknecht 25 Mar '06

25 Mar '06

PDX7 V2 In 2001, I started learning Pd. The first bigger patch I did was a six operator FM synthesizer loosely modelled after the famous DX7, which I called PDX7. Now it's five years later and not only in retrospect this first patch is quite a mess. But I still like the sounds it generates. In the meantime I learned a lot more about Pd and about a lot of other things. So I thought, why not celebrate the fifth anniversary of me doing Pd, the fifth "birthday" with a cleaner version of the PDX7, that maybe others can understand to use as well. The result is the PDX7 V2. Read and hear more at: http://footils.org/cms/show/51 Ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org_ __goto10.org__

Stack Overflow
by Chuckk Hubbard 25 Mar '06

25 Mar '06

I get this all the time. It's a real problem, because in a longer score it usually means the first half of the score has had all its notes changed to a new reference pitch and the second half hasn't, and there's no way back from that but to reload the piece. I have a "JInext" abstraction I made, which takes a bang or a next message, and finds the next $1 scalar in pd-score. Because I have a vertical line on each beat, and octave marking lines, and tempo markers, plus notes, it has to skip past a lot of other templates. I put an internal delay in it, so that every 10 times it goes, it waits 10 ms. I've adjusted this to be slower and slower as I've written longer scores, but I still get stack overflow from the "next" message that retriggers it. Can anyone explain more about what exactly "stack overflow" is? Might it help if I just put a 1 ms delay for each scalar? Thanks. -Chuckk -- "It is not when truth is dirty, but when it is shallow, that the lover of knowledge is reluctant to step into its waters." -Friedrich Nietzsche, "Thus Spoke Zarathustra"

ggee stk doc?
by Jeff Sandys 25 Mar '06

25 Mar '06

I noticed that the pd-extended has Perry Cook's STK in ggee/experimental. Is there any documentation or sample patches on how to use it? There was a pd version of PrRColate (STK for Max/MSP) but I can't find it anywhere. I'm reading Perry Cook's book and would like to experiment around with the STK in a friendly environment. Thanks, Jeff Sandys __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

DAFx grew from a very successful COST action in Europe and has established a reputation for the excellence of the papers and its open, friendly atmosphere. It is an event where everyone is involved in some aspect of music and information technology, from new ways to play electronic instruments to music information retrieval. DAFx appeals to researchers and practitioners in digital audio and digital music processing. The conference will feature keynote addresses, poster, and spoken presentation sessions over 3 days. Topics include: * Audio Effects * Sound Representation & Sound Modeling * Sound Synthesis * Audio Coding * Time-frequency & Spectral Processing * Audio Analysis and Low-level Features * Spatialization, Localization and Wave Field Synthesis * Perceptual Issues and Psychoacoustics * Software and Hardware Implementations * Music Information Retrieval Systems * Automatic Transcription and High-level Features * Auditory Displays * Source Separation * Audio Restoration * Audio and the Internet * Audio for Multimedia * Performance and Gestural Control * Compositional uses and issues PAPER SUBMISSION Prospective authors are invited to submit full-length papers before March 31, 2006 according to one of the following two paper formats: - Oral Presentation: maximum 6 pages in the Proceedings; about 20 minutes for presentation. - Poster Presentation: maximum 4 pages in the Proceedings.

unexpected behaviour of overlapping guis
by Roman Haefeli 24 Mar '06

24 Mar '06

hallo when guis are overllapping each other, the overlapped area is assigned to most bottom gui. since this area visually is part of the most top gui, one would expect a different behaviour. of course the guis are not meant to be overlapped, but with [tgl]s you could do a lot of funny things, if they'd behave as expected. roman

about windows and avast...
by Andrei Thomaz 24 Mar '06

24 Mar '06

the problem with pd extended and avast is not a specific windows problem. It is a problem or a) of the heuristics used by avast; b) or the file published at the mirror of sourceforge where I downloaded it from. And please, the audience of this list is not so stupid, at least to the point of not knowing it is possible run pure data with linux, and not to have this kind of problem. I really think the authors of pd-extended want to know if there is a problem with the file that they published at sourceforge. Now, i can run pd only turning avast off. bye, andrei

Gem: firewire OSX problems
by Alexandre Quessy 24 Mar '06

24 Mar '06

Hi ! I am using a firewire mini-DV camera with Gem on Hans' Pd-extended 0.39-2 on Mac OS X Tiger. This camera is usually 720x480 pixels. There are 2 problems I am facing right now : 1) [pix_video] is having a hard time trying to connect with the camera. I get the silent green screen. Are there options I should check out ? Is Pd-Extended-0.38-4's Gem more stable on Tiger ? 2) I am trying to apply a [pix_mask] to this video stream from QuickTime loops. I always get an error telling me that there is a size mismatch. They are all 720x480 quicktime files of about 50 Mb max. Maybe another codec would work better ? Motion jpeg ? (as read on the pd-list) AVI ? MPEG4 ? Thanks ! (this is kind of 48 hours before the show...) aalex

What Pd-extended looks like for me
by Chuckk Hubbard 24 Mar '06

24 Mar '06

Here is what my JI sequencer looks like in both 0.38-3 and Pd-extended. So, at this point, I'd rather be able to get the individual external libraries, wherever possible, than to just use extended. -Chuckk
