Making it lower, especially as low as 1ms, could cause huge jitter, like timing between packets ranging between 1 and 400ms instead of 10-30ms. So its only worth changing that value if you are going to do real loopback testing to see if you can get stable results. .hc ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ¡El pueblo unido jamás será vencido!

I'm working for Ars Electronica right now and I've basically discovered that working in the field blows.

life as a new media artist
by Adityo Pratomo 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

hi there everyone! well, my question would be very simple this time. Is there anyone here make a living as a new media artist? If yes, how do you get money to financially funding your project while still gaining money for personal usage or eve for providing your family? or do you have another job? Thank you for answering :) -- mataharipertama.wordpress.com

Pduino - error compiling firmware and analog inputs problem
by Ignacio Viano 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

Hello. I've just got an Seeeduino ATmega168 (100% compatible with Arduino Duemilanove). [OS X Leopard, PD-extended 0.41.4]. When trying to compile the firmware "StandardFirmata" (downloaded from http://at.or.at/hans/pd/objects.html#pduino) I get this error: * In function 'void setPinModeCallback(byte, int)':* *error: 'FIRST_SERVO_PIN' was not declared in this scope In function 'void analogWriteCallback(byte, int)':* * In function 'void sysexCallback(byte, byte, byte*)':* * In function 'boolean isServoSupportedPin(byte)':* After that I compiled "SimpleAnalogFirmata" succesfuly but, when testing the comunication with PD I noticed that the Analog-In-Values were being updated at a very small rate (2 or 3 times a second). This prints PD when I start comunication with Arduino: *[comport] closed /dev/tty.Bluetooth-PDA-Sync* *get_baud_ratebits: 57600.000000* *set_baudrate baudbits: 57600* *[comport] opened serial line device 2 (/dev/tty.usbserial-A7004HQU)* The baudrate seems to be fine. My questions are: ¿Which firmware should I use if I want all analog (pots) and digital (buttons) inputs? ¿Any ideas about the error I get trying to compile "StandardFirmata"? ¿Any ideas about that extremely small data rate? Greets and thanks Ignacio

Install Pd on Fedora 10 x86_64
by Konstantinos Benardis 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

Hi list I am trying to install Pd on Fedora 10 x86_64. There is no binary package for this (in CCRMA repository neither). I tried to build from source but there is no configure file in src directory. Should i "make" without configure or would be better to try to install the i386 binary. Thank you

midifile ... in reverse
by mark edward grimm 04 Nov '09

Is is possible to play a midifile in reverse with [midifile]? Something I would think would work.... [metro] | [f]x[- 1] | [$1{ doesn't seems to work right.... unless i need a [t f b] ... but that doesn't seem to work very well either. maybe I just have the post-halloween hangover. thanks! m

Interactive amplitude, FFT~EQ
by Gintaras Lau. 04 Nov '09

04 Nov '09

Excuse me, can I consider that amplitude of the sound has no digital nature then extracted from a real musician playing, and use it to control modulation frequencies, levels, dry/wet or something? Does it have common with interactive control, that could be named one or has any other name? Not sure if i can find out it myself. Something else interest me with fft~ opposite polarity modulation, like an audio stream with eq insert. Each band of the eq is controlled by the spectre of modulating signal or Each partial of eq controlled by the same partials of fft~ partials. Are these connectible? thank you.

Hi Konstantinos, Compute Audio is checked and I still do not get any midi sound. I'm not new to pd, but I previously used it under Win xp and never met this kind of trouble. Best regards, François --- En date de : Mar 3.11.09, Konstantinos Benardis <c.benardis(a)gmail.com> a écrit : De: Konstantinos Benardis <c.benardis(a)gmail.com> Objet: Re: [PD] help : midi problrm with macbook À: "François Bardet" <frbardet(a)yahoo.fr> Date: Mardi 3 Novembre 2009, 14h51 Hi François, First of all make sure that the Compute Audio box is checked in the main Pd window. In a new patch create a noteout object and then right click and choose help. In the help patch use one of the examples to see if you hear any sound. If you are new to Pd there is a book called Loadbang. You can find it online too. I find it really helpful. An important thing about the the list. When you reply to a mail from the list use the "reply to all" button. I am the only receiver of your last message. Best, K.
