hi,
is this a known issue : on a powermac g4/800 panther with pd 0.38-
extended, i get a lot of audio dropouts, even when only using one or
two objects, say a readsf~ or just osc~ objects. i tried both
portaudio and jack, doesn't make a difference. the problem seems to
be inside pd. the dropouts occur at the slightest stuff i do, for
example switch to the finder, open a file requester etc. when i run
another app in the background, there's drop outs every few seconds. i
increased the "delay" value in the preferences which i guess is a
kind of I/O vector size, didn't make any change ... sound card is RME
96/8 PAD and i'm not having any difficulties in any other audio app.
thanks for hints! best, -sciss-
