more interpolation of arrays
by punchik punchik 14 Apr '09

14 Apr '09

Hello list , i have a question, ive made this patch for interpolating arrays, the patch uses 3 arrays, one array to interpolate the contents of the 2 other arrays. I need to use this for a gem patch that has dsp turned off so i dont need to use "~" objects. I made it using a gemhead and a repeat object . It works fine but since the repeat is beeing triggered 30 times in a second it consumes more than 30 % of my cpu. so my question is How can i make this without triggering from the gemhead? how about if i want to trigger the iteration every time i change the interpolation amount? please check the attached patch thanks Pun

Looking for a gig in Barcelona
by Chris McCormick 14 Apr '09

Hi All, Forgive me if this should be marked [OT], but I use Pd for my live stuff so I guess it's not. :) I'm going to be in Barcelona for two weeks starting Monday, and I'd love to play a live set while there. Maybe someone who knows the electronic music scene in Bcn. can help me out? Best, Chris. ------------------- http://mccormick.cx

Re: [PD] Pd-list Digest, Vol 49, Issue 72

Hey Phil, thanks a lot for the suggestions, in the end i solved deleting the pref. file. But doing it from the terminal. Sorry, for not answering but i was in incredible rush. For info, the plist file wasn't there and after some typing in the terminal it appeared (odd behaviour). When i tried to open it the file was empty, but from terminal i could see the string where the error was. Then i deleted it from the terminal. The laptop wasn't mine so that i don't know the technical details of it, but later i think i will be able to answer with that, if needed. Besides i was checking the related FAQs, but i didn't find anything about deleting the plist, so (as it was the first time i had to manage a pref. issue) i wasn't sure at all about deleting it and how to do it and i had to find the instructions about using defaults in the terminal to modify or delete the file. Then with your email and some googling i understood that one line from the terminal could solve everything. I just miss this indication in the FAQs or it's missing for real? if it's missing i think it could be useful to add it there in the FAQ section, cause as a newbie to this kind of operations i got lost for some hours. best Marco > > ------------------------------ > > Message: 2 > Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2009 06:50:20 -0700 > From: Phil Stone <pkstone(a)ucdavis.edu> > Subject: Re: [PD] startup makes crash + .plist > To: Marco Donnarumma <devel(a)thesaddj.com> > Cc: pd-list(a)iem.at > Message-ID: <49E3431C.90205(a)ucdavis.edu> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed > > Marco Donnarumma wrote: > > Hi list, > > i have an Urgent problem i realy hope someone could help me quickly. > > This is the last day for me to prepare a performance for a live show > > and Pd doesn't open anymore. :( > > The story> > > i installed pdmtl library (from zip file on MAC) following the video > > tutorial.

Re: [PD] Needed libs for extended on Linux
by Alvaro 14 Apr '09

14 Apr '09

Hi, you could get a list of dependencies by first installing the puredata package with synaptic and then looking in properties -> dependencies. But then these dependencies have dependencies of their own and so on, so this is probably a neverending story. If you are working offline, you could consider using a bootable cd with everything pre-installed, like puredyne: http://code.goto10.org/projects/puredyne/ Hope it helps.chao Alvaro ----- ursprüngliche Nachricht --------- Message: 3 Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2009 19:58:23 -0500 From: Nicanor Garcia Subject: [PD] Needed libs for extended on Linux To: pd-list(a)iem.at Message-ID: Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hello, Sorry to bother you with this question but I'm really in a hurry. I need to install pd-extended on a machine that doesn't have access to internet, it is a machine in my university. We installed Ubuntu Studio 8.04 on it and it's working fine. I forced the installation with the deb package but I got some errors about Gem and others externals not working because of some needed libs. For tomorrow I need to work with all the audio objects so I was thinking about downloading the deb packages for the needed libs in my house and taking them in an Flash memory, but I'm not sure which packages do I really need. I'll apreciate if you could help me. Thank you very much in advance. Nicanor Garc?a O.

simple rgb color organ
by Derek Holzer 14 Apr '09

14 Apr '09

Hey gang, before I go reinventing somebody else's wheel... has anybody written something that takes a (sound) frequency in Hz or MIDI note and outputs the transposed color in RGB values? Along these lines: F#44 = 737 nm(Infrared) G 44 = 696 nm(Red) G#44 = 657 nm(Red) A 44 = 620 nm(Red-Orange) A#44 = 585 nm(Yellow) B 44 = 552 nm(Green) C 45 = 521 nm(Green) C#45 = 492 nm(Green-Blue) D 45 = 464 nm(Blue) D#45 = 438 nm(Violet) E 45 = 414 nm(Violet) F 45 = 390 nm(Ultraviolet) Or even something that takes the light wavelength in nanometers and gives separate RGB values? I'm working on a simple color organ for a friend this week. Danke + best!

capturing pd outwindow in win
by brandt＠subnet.at 14 Apr '09

14 Apr '09

hi all does anybody know how to capture a gemwindow. i tried snap2tex but failed. snap2tex does not force pix_record to write. it does not show any frame numberchanges and if you stop it, no file is created. since i have a lot of gem chains in that patch and also snap2tex feedback, i need to have a own renderchain for the capturing. I also tried the pix_depot and friends but same behavior like pix_record. both are working well with pix-film or pix_video thank you in advance der.brandt

startup makes crash + .plist
by Marco Donnarumma 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

Hi list, i have an Urgent problem i realy hope someone could help me quickly. This is the last day for me to prepare a performance for a live show and Pd doesn't open anymore. :( The story> i installed pdmtl library (from zip file on MAC) following the video tutorial. I modified Pd preferences (path and startup), close Pd and when i tried to relaunch it, it open a blank consolle and then crash immediately without loading any library (or at least i don-t see in the consolle anything loading). so it doesn-t allow me to modify anymore the preferences. i disinstalled Pd and reinstalled twice but it keeps on with the same behaviour described above (as far as i know the keys are still stored in the system). how can i modify the org.puredata.pd.plist file from terminal? i used the command defaults read org.puredata.pd and i see the error in in the flags startup - but i cannot sort out how to modify it from terminal... (sorry for the ignorance but im not used to manage terminal) i also look for org.puredata.pd.plist in ~/Library/Preferences/ but the file doens't look to be there. or how i disinstall Pd in order to reset all preferences? or any other suggestion is really appreciated, i still have a hell of work to do on the performance patch..... :(((( was checking in the list archive and documentation but didnt find the specific command line to modify the pref. thanks a lot...
