OSX Gui problems
by Ed Kelly 19 Sep '06

19 Sep '06

Hi all, I've been making a patch which is gui-heavy, that runs quite well on Linux. The problem is it has been made for somebody who wants it to work on a 1.5GHz Mac Powerbook with OSX.3. Now, the GUI is slow and unresponsive at the moment, and renice-ing the GUI has little effect. The GUI elements are unresponsive regardless of whether the dsp is on or off. It has over 240 GUI objects. Having checked out the list I see that Tk/Aqua has a reputation for sluggish GUI performance. Is there a version of Tcl/Tk I can use that is better on OSX? And if so, how do I create the Pd-0.39-2.app folder that Miller distributes? I need to be making the whole thing (Pd, the patch and the externals used) as one file, so the people I work for can download it, unzip it and run it.

Python external for winNT?
by Richard Widerberg 19 Sep '06

19 Sep '06

Hi Does anyone have the py/pyext external compiled for winNT? Pd can't load py.dll and I guess the reason is that it looks for python22.dll in the wrong directory -> windows/system32 which is winnt/system32 on NT. I could maybe compile it in NT myself but since it is not my machine I don't want to install to much stuff onto it. cheers Richard

Re: [PD] Computer Music feature reconsidered

Hi Frank, the list looks great but when I create an object 'list split 2' I get this error: list split 2 ... couldn't create Creating a 'list split' object without a number argument doesn't give an error but it doesn't seem to do anything. I'm using pd-extended on OS X, do I need anything else to use the list split?

vst~ multiple inlets
by derek holzer 19 Sep '06

Quick question: how to get multiple inlets to [vst~]? With TC-Native-Reverb on Windows, for example, the message "getins" reports two inlets, but the [vst~] object only shows one. thanks, d. -- derek holzer ::: http://www.umatic.nl ---Oblique Strategy # 117: "Make it more sensual"

scrolling on OSX
by Chuckk Hubbard 19 Sep '06

19 Sep '06

I just had an hour-and-a-half phone session with the microtonal composer who'll be teaching me for independent study, and I walked him through setting up and using my sequencer. It was educational; he is fairly computer illiterate, and I learned how well I know my patch and Pd, not having it in front of me for most of our chat. There is one thing that I recall happening to me before, that I can't solve for him. If I open a score, I have Pd sending a message to pd-score to read a .ji file (my extension). If this .ji file is larger than the window, meaning a fairly long score, in OSX, it is not possible to scroll to the right after opening it. My patch: http://www.badmuthahubbard.com/JIsequencerpatch.zip It's a pretty cluttered patch; if you are running Pd on OSX you might know what I'm talking about without opening it. Anyone know what I can do to make the window scroll? -Chuckk -- "Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing." -Theodore Roosevelt

searching for externals in OSX
by Stefano Papetti 18 Sep '06

18 Sep '06

Hi, I had similar problems porting some externals to Mac Intel. In my case the solution didn't regard OS related paths/commands: I used the current test version of Pd (0.40-7) and it worked... M. Puckette told me (http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-dev/2006-09/007455.html) it's the only version actually working with Mac Intels. Of course you have to inform Pd about the path of your externals, or just put them in extra. Stefano

Fink/X11 version of Pd
by Libero Mureddu 18 Sep '06

18 Sep '06

Hello, I would like to spend some time trying to compile pd-extended for mac against a x11 tlc version of tk instead of the aqua version, as suggested by Hans-Cristoph Steiner and others in the past on this list. The good thing is that the Sibelius Academy would provide machines and expertise for this project, and I will put my time and dedication :-) I would like to know if someone already tried to do that recently and has some suggestions, known problems and so on. Thanks and regards, Libero Mureddu CM&T - Sibelius-Akatemia - Helsinki * *

[ot] Sonorities Festival 2007
by Eric Lyon 18 Sep '06

18 Sep '06

apologies for any cross-postings. OPEN FADER @ Sonorities 2007 Call for Works The Sonorities Festival in Belfast invites composers and artists working with sound to submit works to be presented during Sonorities 2007. We are especially interested in works that challenge or expand the current vocabulary and practice of digital audio performance and composition. We encourage two types of submission (maximum of 1 work per category): 1. Live Performances This includes laptop improv, VJ, audio-visual, live-electronics, sound poetry, circuit-bending, hacktivism. Please submit the work in a documentary format that reflects the nature of the performance (e.g. video on DVD, audio on CD, software for Mac/PC, photographs). 2. Fixed Media Works (from mono to a maximum of 24 channels) This includes works for live diffusion, multi-channel works with predetermined spatial placement, and works with video. All submissions must be on DAT, audio CD, data CD-R or DA88. Submissions of multi-channel works on data CD-R must be accompanied by an audio CD containing a stereo reduction, along with diagrammatic instructions for mapping of mono audio sources to destination speakers, along with a ProTools session, MaxMSP or Pd patch to accomplish the mapping. Works with video must be on DVD. Selected works will be featured in four special concerts during the festival. These events will take place in the Sonic Arts Research Centre Sonic Lab performance space. This unique environment for the performance of electroacoustic music includes facilities for sound projection in a full 3D environment through loudspeakers located above and below the audience area. The unique nature of the space makes it essential that selected artists attend the Festival to perform their pieces. The Sonic Lab allows diffusion to a maximum of 48 speakers. (Please see http://www.sarc.qub.ac.uk/pages/soniclab.htm for more information.) Please include a title and program notes as well as a short biography with the submission. Contact information should include a phone number, address, and an email address. A stamped, self-addressed envelope is required for the return of your materials. Materials that are not required to be returned will become part of SARC's media library and may be considered for future events. Artists are expected to finance their participation. Sonorities will be able to provide letters of support, which can aid in seeking funding. Please include a title, program notes as well as a short biography with the submission. Contact information should include a phone number, address, and an email address. Post works to OPEN FADER Sonorities 2007 Sonic Arts Research Centre Queen's University Belfast Belfast BT7 1NN Northern Ireland Contact Eric Lyon (Artistic Director) e.lyon(a)qub.ac.uk Important Dates Deadline for Submissions: 17th December 2006 Festival Dates: 21 April - 25 April 2007
