PDDP meeting?
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 26 Aug '06

26 Aug '06

So I have been sorting thru all of the tutorial/workshop materials that I could find, and I have been cranking out an intro tutorial, plus some sketches for the sound, visual, physical, and networking tutorials. At this point, I would love some feedback to see if people think that the work I have done is in the right direction. Anyone up for PDDP meeting? I gotta say that in the processing of sorting thru all of the tutorial patches has really re-ignited by belief in the process of free software, and in this case, free documention. If I had written this intro by myself, it would be a fraction of what it is currently. What I especially enjoy is the creative little hacks that demonstrate core ideas that have come from a number of people. And that's not the drink talking ;) .hc ________________________________________________________________________ ____ There is no way to peace, peace is the way. -A.J. Muste

feedback detection
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 23 Aug '06

23 Aug '06

Has anyone done anything with trying to detect feedback in a signal? I am not looking so much for feedback suppression techniques, but rather detection techniques. I am working on a system that has a slow feedback loop. I want to detect when feedback is the dominant part of the signal, and make the system respond in novel ways. .hc

Re: [PD] PD Convention 2007!
by darsha 15 Aug '06

15 Aug '06

Hi all, Thanks to those who have sent in comments about the PureData Convention. Keep them coming! The plan for the convention is to have several performances, installations, presentations of papers, workshops, group work sessions and formal and informal talks. Oh yeah, and parties of course ; ). As far as funding goes we will be applying to the usual arts funding organizations in Canada such as the Canada Council for the Arts and various private funding institutions. We will be teaming up with a hotel to offer reasonably priced accommodations. We will also be offering a billeting service so participants can stay with pd people while in Montreal for free. We have a few fundraiser ideas up our sleeves, but please let us know if you have any of your own. We will try to cover as many travel costs as possible, if people can secure their own funding from universities, art councils or arts groups, then that will free up funds for people out on their own. A call for artworks, papers, and projects will be released in the near future. The SAT already has offered their system for streaming so those who cannot make it to Montreal can still follow along. Thanks, and keep the comments coming in. Darsha > >From: "B.

Pd standalone instruments ...
by Tas Pas 12 Aug '06

12 Aug '06

Hi list, I was wondering if there is any way to export a pd instrument so it can operate in a system without pd ot self. Is there any way to make an instrument standalone?

array copy speed test
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 10 Aug '06

10 Aug '06

So I did a little speed test between C and Pd for doing an array-to- array copying. Pd didn't fair so well. Can anyone thing of a better algorithm for copying in Pd? .hc

drawsymbol + crash bug
by João Miguel Pais 03 Aug '06

03 Aug '06

Hi, what's the current development state of drawsymbol? It is possible to create a symbol within a struct, but I was looking for how to change/set it. Is a [set struct symb] not yet implemented? By the way, when trying to close the help patch of [set] pd crashes constantly - doesn't matter which other patches might be open. But this doesn't happen with other d-s objects.

AGNULA buggy
by Chuckk Hubbard 03 Aug '06

03 Aug '06

I just installed AGNULA DeMudi Linux on my 2nd hard drive, so that I now have WinXP on the first HD, OSX on a G3, and Linux on the slave drive in the Windows box, and PD running on all three. I'm hoping to gain experience in all three OSs. I'm finding DeMudi really buggy though. I guess it's just the little things I've learned to work out in Windows but not here. At times, using Jack, the Jack icon goes red and I get a bunch of DIO errors in Pd, and I find that I can no longer use any of the menu options in Pd. Obviously I'd like to avoid this, but I tried it again and can't reproduce it. When it happened, I closed and restarted Pd (thankfully I wasn't actually working on anything) and in the Jack connections, the old instance of Pd remained in the MIDI tab. Also, my latency is higher than in Windows. Pd starts up set to 50, and by the time I have Jack, Pd, and Ardour open, I'm getting errors, even with no patches open. Is this common? Are there settings I don't know about, or is Linux inferior to Windows in this regard? There are other times programs just don't start when selected in Linux, and right now I have the Jack control open but the icon for it has disappeared. I've installed this same Linux distro 3 times in the last day due to various problems. It's the latest "stable" DeMudi, with kernel 2.6.12-3. -Chuckk -- "Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing." -Theodore Roosevelt

Key-repeat makes keyboard-pianokeys impossible?
by Luke Iannini (pd) 01 Aug '06

01 Aug '06

Hi all, I am being ushered to sleep so I have little time to explain this in detail, but hopefully that just means you'll all be spared tedious detail that would obfuscate the issue : ). I'm trying to build a simple computer-key piano such as the one in Apple's GarageBand using the [key] object, and I'd like to be able to hold the keys down rather than have single shot. Key helpfully provides 0/1 notifiers for keydown and keyup - but OS X's built-in key-repeat makes it infinitely retrigger the keypress when held. The GarageBand keyboard does not do this, so I was hoping someone might have some ideas on getting around this so I don't have to pull out my (rather unportable) midi-controller when I'm patching on the road. Thanks!

Self sizing GOP sequencer
by Chris McCormick 01 Aug '06

01 Aug '06

Hi, In light of the canvas resizing message that IOhannes sent through, I've modified my variable sequencer abstraction to resize itself depending on how many beats you initialise it with. I also added a help file. http://mccormick.cx/viewcvs/*checkout*/s-abstractions/s-varseq.pd http://mccormick.cx/viewcvs/*checkout*/s-abstractions/s-varseq-help.pd Please note, the deprecated external [namecanvas] is required! Have fun. Best, Chris. ------------------- chris(a)mccormick.cx http://mccormick.cx
