Re: [PD] PD Convention 2007!
by darsha 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.

windows joystick update, added POV-hat support
by David Merrill 15 Aug '06

15 Aug '06

Hello PD-list, I've updated jsarlo's original Win32 PD object to support a "point of view hat", a feature that a lot of today's gamepads use. Original source was found here: http://www-crca.ucsd.edu/~jsarlo/pd/ My new source and compiled DLL is here: http://web.media.mit.edu/~dmerrill/sw/joystick.zip (note, I've changed the makefile a bit to support my version of visual studio .net - you can find the original makefile in jsarlo's posted .zip) If anyone's using joysticks on windows and would like to try this out and give me feedback, please do - it works on my Microsoft Sidewinder Dual Strike, but I'd like to know if it works for other devices that have a POV-hat also.. cheers, -David Merrill p.s. in case you haven't heard of a "POV-hat", here's a picture of the joystick I'm using: http://web.media.mit.edu/~dmerrill/purejoy.html http://web.media.mit.edu/~dmerrill/images/thumb_300x201.jpg the POV-hat is the 4-direction switch that rests underneath the left thumb.. -- MIT Media Lab dmerrill(a)media.mit.edu

making a list of pointers: "consistency check failed.."
by Rich E 14 Aug '06

14 Aug '06

So I'm trying to make a list of pointers that point to array members within a specified region of the canvas. This way, I can use the list to manipulate a specified region without altering the rest. The attached patch shows how I attempt to do it using a list append looped to a list (which then sends the appended list back to the cold inlet of the list append). This does create the list I want, but I get the message "consistency check failed: gpointer copy" (sometimes gstub_dis). My question is, what does this mean? Is there a better way to store a succession of pointers for later use? Regards, Rich

Empty value in a number ?
by Alexandre Quessy 14 Aug '06

14 Aug '06

Hi! I built a guitar tab-like sequencer. My aim is to include it in netpd. The current default value is -1, as this is an impossible value for a tab. The lower limit is also -1. This is kind of ankward, as it looks ugly and distracts the composer : it messes up with the real values that actually mean something in the song. I would like to know if there is any I could put an empty value in a number box. I know it is impossible with numbers... maybe with number2 ? If not, would it be a great feature to add ? We could send a message like "set" to make it empty. -- Alexandre Quessy http://alexandre.quessy.net

Can $0 be 0?
by Frank Barknecht 14 Aug '06

14 Aug '06

Hi, I would like to check, if $0 was passed as an argument to an abstraction. The usual idiom is: [loadbang] | [f $1] assuming, $0 was passed as $1 | [select 0] | this is $0 now Now of course this fails, if $0 also can be zero itself. I know, that currently this is very unlikely, because $0 starts at 1000 and grows. But it would be great if possible future changes to the $0-implementation would still rule out 0 as a value for $0, so that the test from above will keep working.

Yup, T-shirts and other PD collectibles are things we have been looking into for the next convention.

There was some talk about this on the pdmtl(a)artengine.ca mailing list two years ago but no-one decided themselves to make some t-shirts. Maybe that it would be the time to ask again.

Pd + jack GUI redraw (CCRMA FC4)
by Michael Berkowski 14 Aug '06

14 Aug '06

Hi all, It's taken me a bit to narrow this down, and I haven't seen much in the archive related to this specifically, but I wondered if someone could shed some light on this GUI weirdness. While running Pd with Jack, the GUI redraw when using the mouse is highly erratic. Typically, it will start out fine and I can move a slider or numberbox smoothly, but if I hold onto it for more than a few seconds, the redraw will start to pause and hang behind by increasing intervals. Meanwhile, there aren't any audio dropouts or xruns, just the slow GUI. No CPU spikes, either. I have found that if I constantly run a metro and a flashing button, the problem goes away since the GUI is forced to redraw at least as often as the metro beats, but I'd like to avoid doing this. I initially noticed this problem with the planetCCRMA pd and jack rpms (which are older versions, I think). But I have since recompiled Pd, Jack, and tcl/tk from source and the problem persists. I'm using: 2.6.16-1.2080.13.rdt.rhfc4.ccrmasmp (FC4 jackd -R -d alsa -dhw:0 -r44100 -p2048 -n2 (doesn't seem to matter what jack params are used, RT or not) pd 0.39-2 compiled with alsa and jack support. I'd be thankful if anyone has an ideas before I try upgrading the kernel as a last resort. Best, Michael Berkowski
