PD on Xebian ala XBOX
by chr0n1c 24 Apr '08

24 Apr '08

has anyone else ever tried this? (old) xbox - softmod - xebian HD install with fluxbox - tweak around add minor utils then apt-get puredata? well i just did just that last night and i'd like to report it starting up, i wasn't really able to play around much since i had to well, uh, sleep... anyways i googled "xebian puredata" and didn't come up with much. i'd be more keen on experimenting more with it if someone thinks i can get it running on a 733mhz celly with 64 mb of ram a loopback filesystem running xebian and fluxbox @800x600 scrren res... i know that were pushing the limits of the xbox just gettin a full on distro with X running... but... maybe? -- chr0n1c

Re: [PD] Subject: Gem crash in Ubuntu Gutsy

just my two cents on this issue... i had decided yesterday that i had worked on the audio side of my patch enough and should start working on the graphics side of things and began to study gem. in the examples i found... everything worked fine from the example patches but when i tried to implement the same ideas into my own patch i started getting crashes... i believe it had something to do with the pix_ objects... i am new (but catching on fast) to PD so it may have nothing to do with slimboyfatboyslim's issue. i'm running on a amd 64bit (in 32bit mode) winXP box. (DX10 i think) Pd version 0.39.3-extended GEM: Graphics Environment for Multimedia GEM: ver: 0.91-cvs GEM: compiled: Dec 11 2006 btw, puredata is AMAZING! and here is some videos of me playing with PD and reactivision: http://youtube.com/ohiopctech and i have posted a two part 45 minute recording session, audio only of me and a buddy playing with the patch i have created/pasted together so far, on my website... part one is the third blog post from the top right now... part two is the second one down. the audio is running from the amd-winXP box through my kaoss pad.. to another win98 box doing the recording. (i'm using the kaoss pad for now because i don't have any filter or cv blobs programmed yet) i hope someone enjoys the audio recording.. we sure had a blast playing it! the website is: http://ohiopctech.com thanks for the time you all have spent making PD what it is today! -- chr0n1c ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2008 07:16:04 +0800 From: slimboyfatboyslim(a)slimboyfatboyslim.org Subject: [PD] Gem crash in Ubuntu Gutsy To: pd-list(a)iem.at Message-ID: <20080423071604.kfgd91144k0008sk(a)webmail.slimboyfatboyslim.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format="flowed" hi all, I'm working on PD 0.40 and Gem 0.90 (installed via Synaptic), everything works fine with PD and pdp but when I create any objects related to Gem GUI (gemwin) or open a patch with gemwin, it crashes with the output below: pd -verbose -lib Gem Pd version 0.40-2 compiled 22:04:28 Dec 7 2006 port 5400 TCL_LIBRARY="/usr/lib/pd/tcl/library" TK_LIBRARY="/usr/lib/pd/tk/library" "/usr/lib/pd/bin/pd-gui" 5400 Waiting for connection request... .. connected OSS: requested audio buffer size 8816 limited to 8192 OSS: issuing first ADC 'read' ... ...done. socket receive error: Connection reset by peer (104) Segmentation fault (core dumped) Same situation if I work as root (except it connects to port 5401) seems to be some problems with tcl/tk but I've installed the latest from Synaptic, P.S I'm working on MacBook Thanks,

nosleep option
by gilberto bernardes 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

Dear all There is such a thing as -nosleep option as a pd flag command in pd? I have seen it somewhere but it doesn't work!! I had already in the past very bad experiences because of this, because pd just stoped the connection with my audio inteface even if the computer was always active. I wonder also if could be a procedure from the interface (Presonus Firebox). I'm on a Mac Intel Os X. Any tip on this issue is precious! Thanks in advance, Gilberto Bernardes http://bernardes7.googlepages.com _________________________________________________________________ Confira vídeos com notícias do NY Times, gols direto do Lance, videocassetadas e muito mais no MSN Video! http://video.msn.com/?mkt=pt-br

Re: [PD] rank, beginner (actually haven't even begun) with a question
by Ed Kelly 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

Hi Jeff, I Don't know how much use this is to you, but referring to the sub-aural frequencies (beating) heard when two notes are almost in tune. a beat frequency isolator patch... The beating between two notes can be isolated and used to control some other parameter,e.g. noise, or the amplitude of another sound, or after scaling, something else. Should work with Pd-extended Ed Lone Shark "Aviation" out now on http://www.pyramidtransmissions.com http://www.myspace.com/sharktracks ----- Original Message ---- From: Jeffrey Atkisson <jeffrey.atkisson(a)gmail.com> To: PD-list(a)iem.at Sent: Monday, 21 April, 2008 8:21:24 PM Subject: [PD] rank, beginner (actually haven't even begun) with a question Hi, can someone please enlighten me re: what I am calling real time DSP. How possible would it be to create following scenario. 1. create real world acoustic sound (e.g. piano note) 2. mike that sound 3. monitor sound over headphones 4. analyze and process according to analysis in real time (immediate). for example play note isolate per instructions an upper partial/harmonic in that note and equalize (or whatever you would call it) to have just that partial be heard. So that in real time you are hearing just that harmonic. Thanks in advance if anyone is willing to answer this. __________________________________________________________ Sent from Yahoo! Mail.

Data structure grain weirdness with x-y arrays
by Luke Iannini (pd) 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

Hallo, I'm continuing work on a data structure sequencer, and have switched to using arrays for performance reasons thanks to Frank and Miller's suggestion. That worked quite well! Thanks again. One door leads to another, of course: I've run into an odd issue when using the relatively recent grain and scale definitions with the elements of the array. I've attached a modified version of 05.array.pd to demonstrate. Dragging array elements with the mouse becomes erratic as soon as the "-y y(0:100)(0:1000)(1)" or similar instruction is added to [plot], in that very fast mouse movements are required to effect any change (i.e. move the mouse slowly enough, and the element won't move at all). As far as I can tell the bug applies to the direction being "grained", but adding grain/scale to -x broke things entirely for me (the drawing seemed to occur correctly, but I couldn't find any clickable hotspots). Finally, the hotspots for resizing elements also become displaced in the x direction. In the patch, try resizing the rightmost green boxes in the array to see what I mean. That's all. (okay, not really. Are there any plans to add the "change" pointer output to elements of an array? Their [struct]s remain silent.) Cheers Luke

Re: [PD] Cyclone in vanilla?
by Matt Barber 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

Frank, Thanks for the attachment. You're right about the block~ size; I was thinking about if you wanted to later use it in recursive delay networks, but I had forgotten that an abstraction will block~ to its parent patch (yes?). As a note, to make it compatible with earlier versions of PD, you can't embed $0 in the middle of a symbol -- to send a message to pd-$0-name you have to use [makefilename] or some such (this would currently be important for users of the vanilla subset within extended, say under planetccrma).

Fann or ann external
by Ricardo Dueñas Parada 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

Hi everybody. Anyone knows where can I find the FANN or ANN externals, and which of both is in use? Some documents say that they are part of pd-extended, but they are not in my extra folder. Thanks. _Ricardo D.

Sysex messages?
by Ken Restivo 23 Apr '08

Is there a way to receive, intepret, and send SysEx messages (like MMC) via PD? I found one message on the list archives, from 1999, and no answer for it. -ken

Query Pd internal variables from a patch
by Andy Farnell 22 Apr '08

22 Apr '08

An interesting question on the forum has me scratching my head here, perhaps someone knows this? "What's the best method to access to soundcard info and number of channels from a PD patch? I try to explain... I'm comunicating PD patch with Flash using OSC. How can I retry soundcard type, info, and number of channels from the PD patch and send to Flash app? Thanks a lot in advance." So, is there a message that can be used to query the state of the audio engine and return stuff like sample rate, channels? a. -- Use the source
