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?

window-switching on OSX?
by Damian Stewart 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

How do I switch between open windows on OSX using the keyboard? On PC I used to be able to Ctrl-Tab. The OSX equivalent of that is Apple-`, but it doesn't do anything; Apple-Tab on OSX switches applications, which doesn't help either. cheers D -- Damian Stewart +64 27 305 4107 f r e y live music with machines http://www.frey.co.nz http://www.myspace.com/freyed

: PD sync with JACK (linux)
by Mysth-R 18 Jan '09

18 Jan '09

Hi, I am new on this list. I tried to find some informations about syncing PD and Jack transport/BPM in the archive list but I am not satisfied :D I am making an Audio sequencer with PD, and I would like to use it with other linux softwares (seq24, hydrogens, freewheeling,...). So I need to synchronise PD and Jack with MIDI or OSC; I saw on the archive list some module like midirealtimein but it doesn't seems to work for me. Only receive zeros. Today I am trying to use jack.tools, to synchronise with OSC (jack.osc). I can send /start /stop messages, but I don't understand how I can send transport informations, bpm ... Can you help me / give me some informations ? Thank you for your help cheers, Erwan -- {^_^} Mysth-R {^_^} http://myspace.com/mysthr http://myspace.com/aideauditive

remote SL users..?
by Damian Stewart 10 Dec '08

10 Dec '08

hey, Anyone else out there using one of the Novation Remote products to control PD? I have a series of patches I've built which allow me to manipulate everything I need without ever going near the actual computer - everything's painstakingly hand-mapped to a knob on the controller. I recently sent Novation an email about releasing the Automap SDK - they said they'd do so 'in a few weeks' - this was a few weeks ago, so it's hopefully imminent. The question I want to ask is, would anyone else find an Automap external for PD useful? -- damian stewart | +44 7854 493 796 | damian(a)frey.co.nz frey | live art with machines | http://www.frey.co.nz

and it's PR/Marketing, or those
by Adrian 23 Nov '08

23 Nov '08

I'm sorry for this more like OT, it's just my thought about improving PD and it's externals in another way. I'm struggling ... PD is one of the best tools for making people learn/experiment/perform/interact digital/electronic art at it's best. But where are the people that are PD's target. I'm trying to suggest that PD should try to follow a Popper-alike way of developing. Make it easy accessable for the people and use their input. Except if PD and it's externals are purely egoistic developments, which i don't think is the case ;) The more people you can involve the more feedback/developer/help you get in improving. I'm sorry for saying such things, as it is something that is an actual idea of most of the people here, i'm not trying to sell you for stupid. Maybe i'm just frustrated about my own lack of skill. I was fascinated about projects like pdp, gridflow and especially desiredata. But installing them is a hell for me as a OS X user, and the least i wanna do is search/install for all the necessary things. Now just some suggestions (excuse me for being rude): - Vastly improvement of the webcommunity, very important: Except for a very good maillinglist there is no real source for a community for pd on the net. The forum at hurleur.com is a joke, and that the official site is deadland is just sad. Furthermore the site needs to be ordered and probably hardly overworked, there is nothing wrong in making it accesible to as many people as possible by runnig it in plone, but is it nessecary? The people accesing the site now will probably not need that the site is universible compatible with every last browser on this earth and history, etc. - Improvement in usability of PD & e(xternals): Projects like the installers of iOhannes and desiredata are genial! All externals should follow a path where they can make themself accesible to the public with ease. It must be very frustrating to put lot's of effort and time into something and then nobody wants it. - And last, the documentation: Order, Unifying, Improve Please don't kill me for this mail. Lately i had a message in a Fortune-Cookie saying that "i have a reputation for being very straight forward and honest", i agree and want to follow that path. This mail is not meant to flame or criticize, especially not the developers. I bow down in front of the huge effort all of you put into PD & e. I just think the way of opening and easy accessing the public is the best way in proving that PD is the best and drive it's development. yours, adrian -- another incomplete website: http://conficere.ch/pds

Re: [PD] looking for open dmx external
by David Kirkpatrick 05 Oct '08

05 Oct '08

Hi Jim,I developed an external with Adrian 'Packrat' Taylor that allows pd to talk to the Enttec USB DMX Pro. It is called [dmxsend], and is part of the Packrat library (.dll). You can find it at www.packratproductions.com.au/davidkirkpatrick. I've included a simple help patch to show the basic functions and how they work. If you have any questions, let me know. Also, if you want to try and get it working on OSX or linux you're welcome to try.

Hello, Does anyone know the size limit of a 44.1k stereo wav file that "soundfiler" can handle? So far, I haven't been able to write more than 36562276 samples to a table (which represents 829 seconds of sound if I get it right). What can I do in order to be able to read larger files? Thank you.

http://puredata.info/Members/mjmogo Hello all, Just wanted to let you know that I have posted the latest "findings" on this external... basically, it is set up with two distinct objects, one the represents the Database connection [SQLdb], and a SQL query [SQLquery]. Please bend, fold, spindle, mutilate, or treat as any other piece of software. In other words, tell me what you think is wrong, and please be specific...

DMX oriented library for PD?
by David Schaffer 20 Jun '08

20 Jun '08

Hi, Is there such thing as a DMX language oriented library for pd? I never heard of it but it would certainly be an amazing step forward for the program: being able to deal with sound, video, midi and lighting control signals would make it a must-have for theaters... Considering pd's control signals abilities, it shouldn't be too hard to emulate a lighting board's functions, and also the sound/lighting interraction could be much deeper. Has anyone thought of this before? I know there's usb-dmx boxes out there... D.S
