Hi Lorenzo, this might sound obvious, but if you didn't yet, be sure to install ASIO4ALL, which in my (pre-linux) experience used to make everything smoother on winzz. http://www.asio4all.com/ M -- Marco Donnarumma Independent New Media and Sonic Arts Practitioner, Performer, Teacher ACE, Sound Design MSc by Research (ongoing) The University of Edinburgh, UK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Portfolio: http://marcodonnarumma.com Research: http://res.marcodonnarumma.com | http://www.thesaddj.com | http://www.flxer.net Director: http://www.liveperformersmeeting.net

Hello Lorenzo, I own a fireface 400 and use it under windows, so maybe I could be some help... ----- "Lorenzo Sutton" <lsutton(a)libero.it> a écrit : > Sorry to answer myself but no feedback on this an had some time today > to > test. > Turns out that if I select ASIO I have no option to have multiple > input/outputs as MIMO (or whatever the other windows system is > called). Where do you expect to have 'multiple input/output' ? if I use FIREFACE asio I can use [dac~ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18] and [adc~ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18] just make sure that drivers are not already used by windows system, because it could make this unstable. > I tried some command line switches but to no avail and had to fall > back > to stereo. The only command line I use is about setting -asio -audiobuff -audioindev -audiooutdev when starting pd from a batch file, just to be sure to use asio fireface with low latency and all input/output but pd would save those settings once it has been applied through pd audio dialog. I have sometimes to use pd -listdev to check out where the hell are FIREFACE asio because audio device number are often moving whenever I have other drivers enabled or not, but I've heard about some solutions to get/set it from a patch, maybe IOhannes could give some hints about this. Be sure you don't have jackdmp installed because it is conflictual with last portaudio release. > > I wonder what is the smallest latency I can reliably expect with this > setup. The smallest latency I've been able to use with pd is about twice the buffer size I could get with any audio interface, something about 2*buffersize/samplerate in seconds > > Guess I really miss jack (audio) :( > > Lorenzo. > > On 04/10/2011 16:10, Lorenzo Sutton wrote: > > Hey Pd-ers, > > > > This is an (kinda) urgent help call for Windows users. > > > > I've been asked to do a live elecronics (with live instrument > input) > > with a patch made for Pd-0.40.3-extended (indicated by the author). > > > > The (99% un-changable) setup is machine with Windows XP connected to > a > > Fireface 400 @ 44100. > > > > I installed Pd with no problem and the device is seen under the > ASIO > > devices but I can only see pairs of two.

sqrt~ problem in Pd-extended?
by Joe Newlin 07 Oct '11

07 Oct '11

Nightly auto-build Pd-0.43.1-extended-20111004-windowsxp-i386 on Windows 7. example: \doc\7.stuff\soundfile-tools\6.vocoder.pd, \extra\vanilla\sqrt~-help.pd etc. It looks like this was a known bug in the past and fixed at some point, having now returned? Is there a workaround? Thanks, -- www.joenewlin.net www.twitter.com/joe_newlin

HELP Please! Pd-0.40.3-extended on Windows 7 with Fireface 400 to get 4 outs
by Lorenzo Sutton 07 Oct '11

07 Oct '11

Hey Pd-ers, This is an (kinda) urgent help call for Windows users. I've been asked to do a live elecronics (with live instrument input) with a patch made for Pd-0.40.3-extended (indicated by the author). The (99% un-changable) setup is machine with Windows XP connected to a Fireface 400 @ 44100. I installed Pd with no problem and the device is seen under the ASIO devices but I can only see pairs of two. So my question are: - how do I set the thing set-up to 1 in 4 out? (I'm used to jack on linux where I simply specify the channels and then can route them through jack) - How do I get the lowest latency possible (ideally <= 8 ms) on such a setup? Thanks in advice for any help. Lorenzo.

Re: [PD] pix.multi.crop (Michael Karr)
by Michael Karr 07 Oct '11

07 Oct '11

Aha, I see. Now this problem, when I try to use your patch with pix_movie it flashes green stroboscopically and repeats the entire video frame in all 9 blocks of the GEM window; and when I change the grid from 3x3 to 1x5, it does crop, but creates space between the individual crops. In gems.multi.crop the video loads fine and crops fine with the 1x5 setting. I have tried to hook up the parameters like you did in your example, but the patch is set up quite differently from multi.crop. How would I go about separating the cropping values in multi.crop from each other so that I can control them dynamically? Thanks, Michael

Synchronisation fo video and sound
by Albena Baeva 06 Oct '11

06 Oct '11

Hello List, I'm trying to synchronise film and it's sound in pd. I have several short clips exported as one longer video and separate audio file. I need to be able to start each one of them when I choose, but I loose synchronisation of sound an video. I first try to use this patch ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boX0v54SqtU ) - I send to the right inlet of [phasor] the starting point of the video (/) by the total fim length. That worked with one of my video test, but with the real video that I have to use totally lost synchronisation. I send separately the begging point of the video to [counter] and [pix film]. Then I tried to use [phasor] as the play machine for both. But it still doesn't work- the problem this time is the speed of the sound sample is faster and the way the films change is pretty random, but there is synchronisation. I attach part of my second try. I hope that will be enough to see where I' wrong Thanks Albena http://albena.posterous.com runabout.eu the-rest-art.blogspot.com

rvbap crashes
by Iain Mott 06 Oct '11

06 Oct '11

Hi list, I'm having problems already cited elsewhere with rvbap - whereby it crashes with a "Signal 6" when adjusting the azimuth and having first configured the external with a 2D speaker array (eg. with a message: "define_loudspeakers 2 -45 45 0 180"). While i've seen this reported i haven't seen any solutions. eg. here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3383881&group_id=5… I've tried this with pdextended on linux (i'm using ubuntu 11.04) and also by compiling the external with this source: http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/externals/vbap/ Same thing. Does anyone have any suggestions? thanks, Iain
