There is a small collection of some screenshots of the new GUI in action.

Pd related publication
by PSPunch 19 Sep '09

19 Sep '09

Hi all, Early this month (Sep. 2009) a book on Pd was released in Japan rather silently. http://www.cqpub.co.jp/hanbai/books/12/12431.htm As the name "CQ Publications" may tell, the publisher is widely known in Japan for decades for their Ham & Radio related books and magazines. This book also takes a rather unique approach, introducing Pd as a method to build your own filters and DSP blocks for the sole purpose of expanding your transceiver. Here is a brief translation of the final chapter on sample patches. ----- 7. Sample patch 7-1 VU meter 7-2 Analyzing and displaying the input signal 7-3 Morse code generator 7-4 DTMF encoder 7-5 DTMF decoder 7-6 Compressor 7-7 Using the RS232C ----- The book also comes with a CD-ROM containing Windows binaries of Pd-extended. -- David Shimamoto

Pd-GUI-Rewrite test builds
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 19 Sep '09

19 Sep '09

Ok, so there are now some Mac OS X and Windows test builds for people to try. For GNU/Linux, building from source is still the easiest way. http://puredata.info/dev/PdGuiRewriteTestBuilds I think its pretty useable on GNU/Linux and Mac OS X. The Windows side needs more work, so I would greatly appreciate feedback and contributions from Windows users. .hc ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The arc of history bends towards justice. - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Pd on Maemo driven devices?
by yjf 18 Sep '09

18 Sep '09

Hi, the next Nokia smartphone N900 will have a Linux based OS by the name of Maemo. - I was wondering if anyone is working on making it possible to run Pd in some way under that system. Or are all eyes on the iphone? Jurgen -- "Have you been playing a long time?" Queen Elizabeth II to Eric Clapton.

Re: [PD] Help with patch needed: keyname/route + textfile/gem Hi all
by Dario Pedrioli 17 Sep '09

Hi all, I use PHP and ImageMagick to create images from dynamic text (stored in mySql). Basically I've got a php web page, from which I call a shell command that output a fixed width and height image, filled with text. The text size vary to fill the whole image, so few words -> bigger text, many words -> smaller text. So you have always all your text formatted in the same space, and you don't have to worry about carriage return (it's all auto(image)magick) The core of the sequence of command is: [PHP code] $command = "echo \"". $text ."\" | convert -channel RGBA -background none -font " . $fontfile ." -fill white -size ".$width."x".$height." caption:@- ". $phisicalPathAndFileNameOfTheNewImageFile; echo exec($command); [/PHP code] where the words preceded by "$" are variables. After you run this command you'll find the image file ($phisicalPathAndFileNameOfTheNewImageFile). In the image, the text is white (I use dark background in PD) and the background is transparent. Then you can take it and use in PD. Hope this helps. Let me know if you want more details or screenshots - eg: php functions to fix the input text (addslashes etc...) ciao, dario

Help with patch needed: keyname/route + textfile/gem
by James Dunn 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

Hi all, I'm hoping someone might be able to help out with a patch I'm working on (attached to this mail). Basically the patch is designed to trigger samples when a specific key is pressed on the computer keyboard. Also I want to have scrolling text in gem which advances with each key press. My problems are: 1) Using keyname, the number keys don't work with route - why is this? Character keys and the Function keys work fine, but I would like to use the number keys as well. 2) Textfile only reads up to the comma - how can I print commas to the gem window AND specify how much of the text file should be read at a time? 3) I just tried running the gem window and triggering the sample at the same time and the audio was stuttering constantly! Any ideas for a solution? many thanks for any advice James

sc3~ for PD
by Si Mills 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

Hello http://music.columbia.edu/~brad/sc3~/ - Just wondering, how hard would it be to port this to Pd? Is there any sort of external that allows you to write a text based synth directly inside PD? I imagine when clicking on the object would bring up a mini code editor. Sometimes the ability to to use loops and arrays to create objects and can be a real time saver (500 [osc~] each with random pitch variations and amplitudes please!) I need enlightening to the scripting possibilities of Pd I think cheers

General Midi spec patches?
by Daniel Wilcox 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

Has anyone made any General Midi convenience patches? Maybe something like [general-midi trumpet] or [acoustic bass drum< | [general-midi-drums] I'm planning on revamping my system's midi setup to use the correct GM instruments/channels, etc so I can record a live midi file as well as a wav. Then the next step will be converting said midi to .kar with the lyrics ... automated midi karaoke. I have the read the spec online and it wouldn't be too hard to do, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel if it's already rolling for someone. -- Dan Wilcox danomatika www.robotcowboy.com
