hi,
i have pd installed on ubunty 9.10 - karmic koala.
i have absolutely no sound when i fire up pd. i've tried fooling
around with the Media>settings for OSS, ALSA, jack, default MIDI.
No sound. What gives?
Thank you,
Y
Hi folks, what's up? Hope you're all well.
I find it somewhat annoying that $0 doesn't work on messages, is it really
impossible?
Now, the worst part is that if you need to go to the find menu and search
for "$0-something" it does not find it!!! Is there any way around it?
I even tried sending a message to pd properly but it insists on saying
things like "1002-something" not found...
Wouldn't it be nice if some core code changes were made so finding "$0" and
dealing with it in messages would work?
I wouldn't know how to do it anyway...
Does this bother other people who knows how to? :)
Thanks a lot
See ya
Hi,
I need to do a polyphonic patch. Since there is no poly~ object, I was
looking into nqpoly4. I know that several people work with it, but I
myself couldn't understand it fully. The examples that come with it work,
but don't explain that much (a pair of extra comments would be quite
helpful). I also saw nqpoly5 mentioned in the pd-list, but doesn't come
with pd-ext. Also, http://pix.test.at/'s site is currently down (creator
of nqpoly4).
So, I wanted to ask:
- what is the most current version of nqpoly?
- does anyone has a simple patch / some documentation that explains how it
works? I'm not really interested in the internals, just to know how I
integrate my patches with it.
- is nqpoly4 the most recent stable version?
(I could also try to spend a couple of days working with it and trying it
out, but I really don't have the time for now)
Thanks again,
João Pais

Hey,
I just finished of a quick library of functions for controlling some
of the hardware features on Apple computers when running under Mac OS
X. So far, I have been able to control the screen brightness;
control the keyboard backlight brightness and fade time; get data
from the "sudden motion sensor" or built-in accelerometer; and get
data from the built-in light sensors.
It's included in the nightly builds as the 'apple' library, check
5.reference -> apple in the Help Browser for help patches.
Also, this should be pretty easy to do for other computers. For
example, the Thinkpad features are pretty well documented under
Windows and GNU/Linux:

Or for Apple hardware, there is pbbuttonsd:

I have added a rewind functionality to the jack_transport~ object by
Jacob Lee to ease use with Ardour. I can't seem to find a contact to let
the author know...
It was a very simple cut and past and edit looking at the transport.h
from jack source. Not sure if this is of any interest.
Anyway maybe the author is on this list?
Attached is the diff.
Kind regards,
Lorenzo.

There's no guarantee of "locality" whatsoever in using $0 either. If you
create a [send $0-xxx] and the identifier of the containing (instance of
an) abstraction happens to be 1032, and then in some other patch or
abstraction you have a literal [receive 1032-xxx], the "locality" will
be lost.
Using $0 as a prefix to the name of "local" sends and receives preserves
locality only provided that you never use "literal" numbers as a prefix
in the name of sends or receives.
So $0 is not so different from other creation arguments (i.e. $1...);
the difference is that it is assigned automatically by the system and
that it is done in such a way that no two instances of any abstraction
will have the same value of $0.
Using it for creating "local" names is just one way of using it, just as
you can use explicit creation arguments for the same purpose (by taking
the responsibility of ensuring uniqueness), although it is probably its
main "intended" use.

hello people,
i like to build an imager effect in pd but have some trouble with it.
what i´ve acually tryed is very simple: sending one signalchannel of an
stereo pair into delaywrite~ (while the other goes directy into dac~)
after 6 - 26 ms later i read out of it with delread~ and is connected to
the second input of dac~.
is this the right way to build an imager?
does anybody know the theoretic background of the imager?
some other ideas how i can do an imager in pd?
thank you,
johannes
