acid
by Chris McCormick 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

Hi, Another question in a very general vein. I asked this on the Csound list a while back (when i was using csound) with good results. I'm trying to produce an acidy type sound (eg 303) and having trouble as my current saw-tooth-through-a-vcf just sounds pretty wimpy. Any ideas on how to fatten it up a bit? I'm not looking for a perfect reproduction of the 303 sound, just a nice acid sound. Hints? Tips? Is there some place where people post interesting Pd patches they've created for others to download at try out? Should there be?

I'd like to help, but I am not going to have time. I'll be on tour starting Sat. for two months. Any flext people want to try to get flext builds in Pd-extended? There could also be a Pd-devel-extended without too much work. Jamie had talked about it in the past. .hc On Apr 11, 2006, at 5:24 AM, Thomas Grill wrote: > > Am 11.04.2006 um 00:52 schrieb Hans-Christoph Steiner: > >> >> All are fresh downloads of the binaries from your site.

Re: [PD] Connection with sensors - new devices?
by Koray Tahiroglu 15 May '07

15 May '07

I've been using arduino with PD heavily since the beginning of December, I am happy with the ready sensor connections as well as self made sensors. And Arduino is an open source microcontroller hardware, http://www.arduino.cc/ cheers, Koray.

GEM GOP abstractions
by Chris McCormick 29 Apr '07

29 Apr '07

Grtz, I've been messing with GEM lately and have made a bunch of GOP abstractions to make things easier. You can find then in the tarball of my cvs which is at: http://mccormick.cx/viewcvs/s-abstractions.tar.gz?view=tar The gfx stuff is in the sx/ directory and works best if you include the parent directory (s-abstractions/) in your path. You'll need the zexy (for [repeat]) and Gem libraries. I have always found it strange how GEM seems to be kind of backwards in terms of the flow of data. In Pd you generally make a noise with e.g. [osc~] and then run it through some effects, into your [dac~] where it is output. In GEM it works the opposite way. You have to place all your color, translate, rotate, repeat, texture "effects" before you put the basic geom such as [cube], and the whole chain starts with the "output" [gemhead]. To address this I've been experimenting with a method of storing geometry in a [list] which is sent through geometry modifying "effects" to an object [sx/blob] which draws geometry represented as a list of verticies of triangles, to the screen. It's pretty crap and slow, and I'd love to know if there is already a better way of doing this. You can send arbitrary geometry from blender3d into puredata by using the script in the utils/ directory. Copy it into your .blender/scripts/ directory and go File... Export... Raw Triangles across the Net... whilst having sx/netgeom-help.pd open. You can't send very complex geometry or the whole thing starts to chug pretty badly, but I think it's a start for something better. An example of an effect on geometry is the sx/explode patch which translates all faces along their normals by some amount. This is all done as [list] math so it's hellishly slow on complex geometry. I am particularly interested to hear if there is a better, faster way of doing this [vector level geom manipulation] that I don't know about. I have been really inspired by the fijuu stuff and I would like to be able to do similar kinds of mesh warping from withing Pd and GEM. Best, Chris. ------------------- chris(a)mccormick.cx http://mccormick.cx

I've been reading obiwannabe's great tutorials, and he keeps using [ead~] where can i get this? Oh and I dont want to install a new version of PD, I'm in the middle of a big project and I don't want to risk some things changing. thanks, pete

fun with nqpoly4
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

I just wrote a quick test of what happens when you play hundreds of oscillators. Thanks to nqpoly4, its quite easy. Basically, I wrote a simple patch that detunes the oscillator based on instance number. So you get hundreds of oscillators slightly detuned around a center frequency. The PowerMac G5 2.3GHz that I am on right now could handle 900 instances cleanly. Just put these files in one folder and double click many-osc-test.pd to run. .hc

Problem with linuxevent object.
by Diego Azar 13 Sep '06

13 Sep '06

Hi, I'm having a problem with the PureData objects linuxmouse and linuxevents on Agnula 1.3.0 while opening /dev/input/event$; it fails. I use to have this problem in pd 0.38 in agnula 1.2.1, but the problem was that I needed root permission to access it. But now it even fail while logged on as root. Any one know something I could do? Thanks, Diego. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

OT: Computer music grad school
by Chuckk Hubbard 11 Sep '06

11 Sep '06

Hi. I am entering senior year as a composition major, at Univ Arts in Philly. I'm interested in going to grad school for computer music, and I want a little more of a challenge. I like freedom to pursue lots of things, but at my current school that has meant pursuing things the faculty can't really help me with. Ideally, I want a good mix of computer and musical studies. I am interested in learning all I can about computers, but I don't want to abandon "traditional" things like melody and themes. I've tried to learn C in the past, but I can't justify spending lots of time on it while studying here. It's mostly live performances, and mostly jazz, here. I've checked out some stuff about UCSD, and their including of music cognition as an actual field of study is great, it's my other favorite subject. Not so big on algorithmic composition, but I'd be curious. Does anyone have any recommendations for other places I should check out? I'm willing to relocate, considering I would probably have to. Thanks. -Chuckk -- "Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing." -Theodore Roosevelt

data structures - color?
by João Miguel Pais 08 Sep '06

08 Sep '06

I just made a patch to see which colors are available in the data structures. it seems that they're not the same as in the normal pd scheme, and that they repeat themselves. is it normal that colors 0 == 100 == 200 == 300, 400 == 500 and 600 == 700? wouldn't it be useful for all color schemes to be synchronised?
