Los Angeles area PD users group (second attempt)
by Joe Newlin 18 Jun '09

18 Jun '09

I emailed the list a while back to try to organize a patching circle in the LA area to do some brainstorming & problem-solving & to generally share ideas and approaches. But there wasn't much of a local response at the time. In the meantime, I've been helping a couple of new PD users get started, & since we're having semi-regular get-togethers, I thought I'd try to revive the idea of doing a patching circle/PD user group type of thing. So if anyone's interested, please let me know. Thanks, Joe

Re: [PD] Revising Help Files
by Jonathan Wilkes 18 Jun '09

18 Jun '09

Ok, a couple of questions before I get deeper into the revisions: 1. Should help patches be tailored for font sizes other than 10? It might be feasible to do this for size 12 fonts, but it will make patches look worse at size 10. For example, to accommodate 12pt fonts, paragraphs and comments to the right of objects will have to be given more padding, which looks awkward at 10pts. If there's no padding, objects and paragraphs will collide when you try to enlarge the fonts. 2. The "description:" comment isn't long enough for some of the descriptions, which I think are already reasonably short (e.g., czero_rev~). It would fit without the word "description", but I'm guessing this would cause problems for the future search functionality that's been discussed. Any ideas? I could just duplicate the description in the pd-meta subpatch but that's kind of awkward. Thanks, Jonathan

Request advice on anti-aliasing of simple geos like circle
by Darren Kelly 18 Jun '09

18 Jun '09

Hi PD, When I use the [circle] geo, even with significant [width 10(, I get pretty rough edges and aliasing artifacts: http://www.webel.com.au/gem/GEM_circles_width_10_no_antialias.png I tried making a "disc circle" with filled outer coloured circle and filled inner black circle (slightly higher in Z to make sure it covers the outer disc ok), but it's still a bit rough: http://www.webel.com.au/gem/GEM_disc_circle_no_antialiasing.png I Googled and looked in the manuals and even tried to grep the word 'alias' for all pd files in PD-extended and found nothing on antialiasing geos. Glad for any help, and please forgive if I've overlooked the obvious, regards, Darren -- Webel IT, "The Elements of the Web" Specialists in Drupal CMS web engineering, UML, SysML, Java and XML, Darren Kelly, BSc, PhD phone: +61 (2) 9386 0090 mobile: 0405 029 008 post: PO Box 1816, Bondi Junction, NSW 1355, Australia http://www.webel.com.au

some naive questions
by tania habib 17 Jun '09

17 Jun '09

Hello, I have two questions regarding the audio settings on PD. When you open the audio settings in PD, normally 44.1 kHz sampling rate and a delay of 50 msec are given with various options for inputs/outputs. My question is whether someone can tell me about this delay and what does that really mean? Is there a way of intializing and running a patch through command line on mac osx? Thanks, Tania

PDF of Kreidler´s "Loadbang" book
by Caio Barros 17 Jun '09

17 Jun '09

Hi all. I´m new in Pd and the Pd-list. I built a PDF file of the English translation of the Johannes Kreidler´s book "Programming Electronic Music with Pd" also known as "Loadbang" and I think that this could be usefull for everybody. I maid this only with the English translation because is the only language I can read so far (I`m brasillian). But there is one problem in the file: I had to squeeze some images so they can fit in the page (I used A4 because is the regular size here in Brazil). So I included in the zip file the .odt (OpenOffice) file that I used to build the PDF so I guys can maybe make some changes to make it look better, if you will. Anyway, here is the download link: http://rapidshare.com/files/245237474/kreidler_pemwpd.zip.html Best of all Caio G. de Barros

Re : Split multichannel audio file into stereo pairs
by Ignacio Viano 17 Jun '09

17 Jun '09

Well Jurgen, I like Audacity too. Indeed, that's the way I'm doing it now. But I need to insert this process in a automatic chain of processes that is made entirely in PD, that is the reason of my obstination in that specific point. I'll try the -batch flag. That will be useful not only for this but for the entire process. How do I make it work? Just putting the -batch flag on startup? One last thing. I remember to have some synch problems while recording with many [writesf~] (correctly triggered, of course). Any ideas about that? I might had been doing something wrong… Thanks Ignacio

Split multichannel audio file into stereo pairs
by Ignacio Viano 17 Jun '09

17 Jun '09

Hi everyone. I want to split a 32-bits 12 tracks audio file (aif) into 6 stereo files (consecutive pairs i.e. 1-2, 3-4, etc.). I've already tried with [soundfiler], but there seems to be many problems with large files (this one is aprox. 10 minutes lenght) and with 32-bits reading (I listen a kind of quantizing error noise, a sort of dithering-less noise). In fact, I'm thinking of reporting a bug on it, but I'd have to explain which exactly the problem is, and I need some time for that. Currently, I'm doing this manually with Audacity, but I need it to be automatic and, if possibly, with PD. Any ideas? Thanks Ignacio
