syncgrain linking problem
by Georg Holzmann 15 May '06

15 May '06

Hallo frank, list! I just have a problem with syncgrain (recompiled flext with stk support and syncgrain): --------8<------------ /usr/lib/pd/extra/syncgrain~.pd_linux: undefined symbol: _ZTI6SndObj c++filt _ZTI6SndObj typeinfo for SndObj --------8<------------ don't know what the problem should be ... ... maybe something in the config.txt: --------8<------------ # where is the Sndobjs installation? # (uncomment the line with # to disable SNDOBJ support) # please be sure to delete an eventual m_pd.h file from the SNDOBJ include folder!! SNDOBJ=/usr/lib --------8<------------ ... I guess this should point to libsndobj (/usr/lib in my case) ? Also the headers of SndObj are not included to the Include-Path, so syncgrain fails to compile ... Thanks, LG Georg

pd~conf 2.0
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 14 May '06

14 May '06

Its been a while since pd~conf and I think we are long overdue for another. I have recently started a job at Polytechnic University in downtown Brooklyn (http://poly.edu I work at http://idmi.poly.edu ), and I can host conferences here for free, and the dorms are available for US$35/night when the students are out of session. This place has a lot to offer in terms of facilities: a 350 seat auditorium, lecture halls, a big plaza for art projects, a 9-screen/9-computer hall with multi-channel sound where we are currently developing software so that it can be used as one OpenGL space, one video screen, or a 9- screen laptop jam. The problem in the U.S. is that there are very few grants for this kind of thing, so it would probably be hard to get grants to fund everyone's travel and hotels like the IEM folks did so amazingly. The standard way that conferences fund themselves in the U.S. is by charging a conference fee. Since this is about free software, it would be nice to have the conference free too. Let's start the process now and get some ideas flowing, and maybe we can come up with something. .hc

10 May '06

Hello I've tried extended 0.39-2 test3 and toxy doesn't work, I've replaced this alpha19 dll version with the alpha15 available in miXed site, and it works fine, even the multiscale widget that didn't work before. thanks for all other improvements in extended (help browser, new libraries) patco. --------------------------------- Faites de Yahoo! votre page d'accueil sur le web pour retrouver directement vos services prÃ©fÃ©rÃ©s : vÃ©rifiez vos nouveaux mails, lancez vos recherches et suivez l'actualitÃ© en temps rÃ©el.

osc objects
by Martin Peach 10 May '06

10 May '06

I've posted source and dlls for [routeOSC], [packOSC], and [unpackOSC] here: http://puredata.info/Members/martinrp/OSCobjects They work with [udpsend] and [udpreceive] or [tcpsend] and [tcpreceive] which are here: http://puredata.info/Members/martinrp/netobjects They could probably also work to send OSC messages through [comport] if some kind of length was prepended to the list, otherwise comport doesn't know how long the message is. Also MIDI could work if there was a way to pack 8bits into 7bits for system exclusive. routeOSC is settable using messages like [set /path/one /path/two( ...but you can't set more paths than were in the original arguments of the object.

by Hans-Christoph Steiner 09 May '06

09 May '06

A not-so-quick and much less dirty release of Pd-0.39.2-extended-test3. - Added iem_ambi and iem_bin_ambi libraries, too bad I don't know how to use them. - added lanbox object - made vbap and ggee libdirs - Cleaned up the doc folders some. - Removed the annoying close confirm. - Added latest Gem test builds. - Writing to the serial port using [comport] now works on Windows. http://at.or.at/hans/pd/installers.html .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

suggestion... or question
by Federico 09 May '06

09 May '06

hello list, I'm wondering if there is the need of a new object in pd.... there is one problem in patching: often, someone need some repetition of objects, or group of objects, and their connections (e.g.: making a data seqencer, or some routing matrix, or multiple instances of a "foo"). for example some piece of code in a subpatch has to be repeated many times, in front of a route, or select, a mixer or whatever, and you have to copy+paste many objects and connect manually together. I know, exists dyn~, but it doesn't offers the same flexibility as classic-patch-editing concept. what do you think of a naw type of object, that can act like a subpatch (or abstraction) does, and provide yet multiple inlets for controlling N instances of that subpatch? is this (already) possible to do? perhaps can be made with an external...? ciao -- Federico

small bug with "coll"
by oliver 09 May '06

09 May '06

hi, just discovered a very small bug with cyclone's "coll" object. it isn't even a real bug since it doesn't do anything but reporting an error message. but as this can lead to unwanted confusion for the patcher (i.e. me) - here it is: if a [send] object and a [coll] have the same name, "coll" seems to be getting all messages put into the [send] object as a message and thus reporting an error on the command line. i'm using cyclone 0.1, 54th build and (still) PD 0.37.2 this small example patch reproduces the error: #N canvas 669 602 345 216 10; #X obj 58 68 s test; #X obj 170 67 coll test; #C restore; #X floatatom 58 48 5 0 0 0 - - -; #X obj 60 115 r test; #X floatatom 61 139 5 0 0 0 - - -; #X connect 2 0 0 0; #X connect 3 0 4 0; ciao oliver -- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ///////////// http://klingt.org/ground/lift //////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\ http://www.charmant-rouge.com \\\\\\\\\\\\ ///////// http://klingt.org/executive-ensemble ///////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\ http://klingt.org/~oliver/prb \\\\\\\\\\\\ //////////////////////////////////////////////////////// \\\\\\\\ LIVE-BUILDER (music improvisation tool): \\\\\\ /////// http://klingt.org/~oliver/pd/live-builder ////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

Tuning a Mac
by Chuckk Hubbard 07 May '06

07 May '06

I've had this problem before, can't recall if I solved it. This Mac happens to be playing flat, about a half-step. I tested a 440 Hz tone from a keyboard (I checked its mastertune and scale), and to get Pd to play that pitch takes about 451.2 (less than a half step, but way off). I checked the sampling rates, everything is set to 44.1 kHz. And the ratio doesn't correspond to 48000/44100. I know it's not just the keyboard, because I noticed it in a composition first.. How could something like this happen? -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"

Default symbol if not set by arg
by Chris McCormick 04 May '06

04 May '06

Hey All, When taking integer arguments in an abstraction, it's nice sometimes to set a default if the argument is not set. For this you can do something like: [$1] | [select 0] | / [45( / | / [f ] Or maybe something even simpler. I would like to do something similar for symbolic arguments. I.e. if an argument is supplied, use it, otherwise use some default or take some other action. Unfortunately there seems to be no way to detect an 'empty' symbol. Has anyone got any ideas? Best rgds, Chris. ------------------- chris(a)mccormick.cx http://mccormick.cx
