displaying long text in GEM
by Patrice Colet 08 Oct '07

08 Oct '07

Maybe it could be some help, a perl script that send texts converted into ascii numbers with pdsend, and an example patch for receiving #!/usr/bin/perl use IO::Socket; $socket = new IO::Socket::INET (PeerAddr => "localhost", PeerPort => 3000, Proto => "tcp", Type => SOCK_STREAM) or die "Can't connect $!\n"; if (@ARGV == 0) { print "Enter filename:"; chomp($fname = <STDIN>); } else { $fname = $ARGV[0]; } open (FPTR,$fname) || die "Can't Open File: $fname\n"; while ($ligne = <>){ @ascii = unpack("C*", $ligne); foreach $val (@ascii) { print $socket "$val "; } } print $socket ";";

maps, shapes, vector graphics and kml files
by marius schebella 08 Oct '07

08 Oct '07

hi, I am trying to get a good world map in Pd where I have separated countries. My initial idea was to be able to switch between a flat and a spherical view... that was probably too ambitious. First I wanted to work with the shapes of the countries, leaving the rest of the map black (for alpha blending), but that gave me some limitations when zooming in. Now I am reading into svg formats and how google earth handles location data and country borders (with kml files) and I wonder how I can display any vector graphics format in pd. at the moment I am converting from adobe illustrator to blender to wavefront obj. Is there an easier way to do that? I read that there are opengl libraries like cairo that can handle svg and draw them in opengl. otoh, with wavefront objects I have the problem that the countries are all flat and not bent to the sphere, so I wonder if that is solvable at all? I would rather stay with a flat map if I get moveable and resizable country shapes... thnx for hints! marius.

Re: [PD] midi controller advice?
by adam armfield 08 Oct '07

I think the DIY route is a good one, depending on your abilities, you can get a fairly pre-made board from doepfer & attach (screw on) jack sockets for up to 16 pedals (or more with expansion), or you might look at an even more DIY solution if you are good at soldering & building stuff one thing to look out for is the impedance... some generic pedals have an impedance matching circuit which would get round the problem of the board wanting 10k pots and the pedal having 50k ones (for instance) all the best adam ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

timestretching for slicer
by F R E N K 08 Oct '07

08 Oct '07

Hello! Thanks to everybody for the quick solutions for the clicking problem... I have a new question, is there a way to perform timestretching on arrays? Or on anything, this would probably be the final step for having a great live slicer! thanx!

servo control
by p d 08 Oct '07

08 Oct '07

Hello all, I'm trying to control motors from pd. A few post in the pd-list deals with that problems, but from user-experience, i would like to know which one is the easiest one . The Parrallax Servo Controller seams to be a cheap solution, like Martin Peach explained but how is it working? Is it possible to control a bipolar motor (I need them to drive a toothed rack backward and forward)? Any help is apreciated. Thank you. pablo _____________________________________________________________________________ Ne gardez plus qu'une seule adresse mail ! Copiez vos mails vers Yahoo! Mail

[Pd] puredata.info download suggestion
by Chuckk Hubbard 08 Oct '07

08 Oct '07

I just downloaded 8 files, Martin Peach's OSC dll's, source files, and pd patches. It took a really long time. I can't right click and select save link, because I save an html file. If I click on the link, I get another page with another link that I can now click on and select save link; but it comes up without the title of the file, and I copy the name of each file from the name of the html page. I didn't have much problem with setups like this before, but now I'm on a slower and less reliable internet connection (in Bucharest). If I could save all the files from one page, I could set them all downloading and do stuff in the meantime, but as is I have to wait for each one to load to set up the next one. Know what I mean? Is this setup the default for the site, or were these files just uploaded that way as a fluke? -Chuckk -- http://www.badmuthahubbard.com

object in which library?
by Oded Ben-Tal 07 Oct '07

07 Oct '07

Is there a list of which external library (e.g. zexy) contains which object? Since it seems I'll need to install pd-0.39 or 0.40 and pd-extended only manages 0.38. I tried installing a recent test build but got some wrong behaviour (with Gem), which means I'll have to try and install pd and than find which additional libraries I need. So is there a way to find which libraries contain which object I'm using? thanks -- ___________________________________________________ Oded Ben-Tal http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~oded oded(a)ccrma.stanford.edu

Re: [PD] using fiddle~ ?
by robbert van hulzen 07 Oct '07

hmmm "proper frequencies", eh? after all this talk of undoing the midi revolution, would'nt it be about time to undo the equal tempered revolution? ;) but really, fb's answer made me wonder to what extent [mtof] rounds its incoming numbers. according to the helpfile, "you can specify microtonal pitches as in "69.5" (a quarter tone higher than 69)". in my experience, changes up to the 2nd decimal result in a different pitch (midi note 60 gives 261.6 while 59.99 gives 261.4)--beyond uncle christiaan's wettest dreams, i'd imagine. but does anyone have any idea how this works with [fiddle~]? does this mean it detunes slightly, and more so if one (for a reason i can't really think of yet) would make a chain of [fiddle~]s/[mtof]/[fiddle~]s/[mtof]/ etc? cheers, robbert Frank Barknecht wrote: > midi-like in the sense, that you can get > values between integers as well, bot just integers from 0-127.
