[soundfiler] -nframes not working, -maxsize weird behaving
by patko 26 May '10

26 May '10

hello, [soundfiler] doesn't seem to reconize the option -nframes, or I do not understand what it stands for. I want to isolate in a table a sample from a soundfile, so I use -skip and -maxsize, it works good but each time I use -maxsize, pd console spits this error out in the fan: error: soundfiler_read: truncated to 2000 elements 2000 is the maxsize argument Patrice Colet - 06 32 66 03 57

[Gem][part_source] fill a volume with particles
by patko 26 May '10

26 May '10

I'd like to draw a volume (font characters if possible) with using particles, and looking for several options maybe someone has ever worked on this? A first option would be about using a picture with the 2D volume drawn with black pixels and using pix_data to get pixel coordinates for rendering the particles inside Is it possible to force particles to follow pixels coordinates? Another solution would be about using a .obj file and get XYZ coordinate, then force particles to follow the vertices. Or maybe there is a way to use a domain in [part_source] then drawing the font characters with curves, and gives coordinates to [part_source]? what is blob domain? Patrice Colet - 06 32 66 03 57

keyboard pedal (yamaha fc4)
by Jaime Oliver 26 May '10

26 May '10

Has anyone ever tried (or has one with which they could try) to connect one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-FC4-Piano-Style-Pedal/dp/B0002F52EW fc4 pedals into the line/mic in of a sound card? It has this 1/4 inch jack and perhaps one could get a sample accurate expression pedal for cheap? please let me know if I am about to fry any part of my soundcard, because i'm going to try one out soon... best, J -- Jaime E Oliver LR www.jaimeoliver.pe 858 750 0924 (cel) 858 202 1522 (home) 9168 Regents Rd.

Streaming GEM Visuals
by Ben Baker-Smith 26 May '10

26 May '10

Hello, I'm looking for a software solution to converting GEM visuals to streaming video on the web. [gem2pdp] appears to be broken, so [pdp_theonice~] is out. I would like to do this on remote servers and virtual servers, so a hardware loop (video out, scan converter, video in) won't work. My ultimate goal is to create live, self-generative visuals that are streamed over the web using a server with Pd/GEM and some streaming software (preferably not flash, since the Flash Media Live Encoder (FMLE) wasn't really friendly with Linux or the command line last I checked). Thanks, Ben Baker-Smith -- http://bitsynthesis.com

Hi, get this: https://svn.grrrr.org/ext/trunk/vst/pd/vst~-help.pd It should get you started. As for the GUI of your VST, it doesn't always work for me either, but, as you'll notice, you don't actually need it to interact with your vst. Good luck! http://www.flickr.com/photos/schafferdavid/ http://audioblog.arteradio.com/David_Schaffer/ Date: Tue, 25 May 2010 10:09:34 -0700 From: ifj.olah_istvan(a)yahoo.com To: schafferdavid(a)hotmail.com Thanks, Now dont have error,but still not work and I dont have a vst help...And I cant see the gui of the vst plugin what I added . I work with extended version. _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail: Trusted email with Microsoft’s powerful SPAM protection. https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969

earplug~ with other HRTF
by Julian Villegas 25 May '10

25 May '10

Hi, could anybody tell me how to use earplug~ with a different HRTF set of measurements? I understand that the distributed version works with the MIT KEMAR set. I'd like to use a different set, measured closer to the head of the listener. Thank you! Julian Villegas, Ph.D. http://julovi.net Me pregunto de un modo pensativo Que significa ser Colombiano?

[PD-announce] Pure Data Patching Circle in Bruxelles (about GEM)
by Jack 25 May '10

25 May '10

Hello, Date: Sunday, 30 May, 2010 - 13:00 We'll focus on video and 3D : Jack from the RYBN collective (http://rybn.org) will come over to introduce us to GEM, one of the graphical libraries in PD, focussing on video and 3D generative synthesis. The goal is to create a thorough understanding of these techniques over a few sessions. Sessions from 13h till 18h, at OKNO. As usual, these are free events, come with your laptop, headphones and motivations/projects. Please send a short e-mail to ol(a)okno.be to confirm your participation, so we can prepare properly. ++ Jack _______________________________________________ Pd-announce mailing list Pd-announce(a)iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce

thoughts on Pd's networking framework
by Ivica Ico Bukvic 25 May '10

25 May '10

So, we've tried to do a series of tests using tcpserver/client as well as netserver/client and found the following: Using either off-the-shelf wifi hardware or an industrial strength wifi router (in our case Cisco), we get unexpected lag spikes on local WLAN with 16 clients at times even exceeding 2 seconds for some of the clients. Network connection in these tests was unencrypted. Packets tested were small to medium using both UDP and TCP (from a single number, up to a sentence, plus a couple numbers). When using off-the-shelf router we even had clients drop connections to the router in a high-traffic context. By using an industry strength router these took much longer to occur (but have still nonetheless occurred). So, with the router being less likely of a culprit I am wondering what is causing these spikes? Without looking closely at Pd's network code one suggested culprit by a CS colleague might be how Pd reuses ports and a possibility of it starving the router. Is this possible? The problem is apparent when sending sporadic TCP packets to all 16 machines as well as when using both UDP and TCP connections. One last thought is whether there might be something on the router settings that would make this an issue in both cases. Any thoughts on this would be most appreciated.

Re: [PD] loading an .aif file into an array
by Derek Holzer 25 May '10

Or use [openpanel] get the file's location converted to a single symbol which [soundfiler] can use. For example, the following file loads fine with [openpanel] and [soundfiler]: /Volumes/one/derek/audio/84 endgroove.wav However sending the message "read -resize /Volumes/one/derek/audio/84 endgroove.wav array1" to [soundfiler] results in the error: error: endgroove.wav: no such table Some day I'll get around to the "working with tables and soundfiles" section of the FLOSS Manual and this will be documented clearly.
