Download Pd?
by Pierre Massat 05 Mar '11

05 Mar '11

Hi list, why has the Download folder disapeared from the menu in puredata.info? It's there if you come from google and search for the download page, but it's not when you're in puredata.info. Or maybe i'm blind? Pierre

pd-kinect-skeleton
by Hans-Christoph Steiner 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

At the last NYC Patching Circle, we got some stuff working with the Kinect camera's skeleton tracking mode. There is a simple Gem model of the data, and then sounds controlled by the hands. Quite fun for a night of hacking, I'd love to see this stuff extended! We used the OpenNI and NITE on Ubuntu/Maverick. Git the files here: https://github.com/pd-projects/pd-kinect-skeleton .hc ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Making boring techno music is really easy with modern tools, but with live coding, boring techno is much harder." - Chris McCormick

large audio files
by Andrew Faraday 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

Hey Guys I've had a vague Idea (which I find is often the best kind) for something to do with pure data. Basically, I want it to randomly select a clip from a long MP3 (just under an hour long) and play back, preferably with some speed manipulation. Although I'm not sure about how to do with with a large file in pure data. I suppose the trick might be to pull a minute or so whole-sale from the file and then manipulate the playback from an array. But really don't know where to start, with the possible exception of [readanySF~] to actually play a long file. any help? Cheers Andrew

Hi, Caio! Here's the graphic score. The étude has an improvisational character. So the score doesn't indicate the expected sound results or the performer actions, but a set of possibilities in a given time. I could send you a pdf file that includes the performance guidelines (in portuguese). I drew the symbols with corel draw to send to the "acrylic factory".

Thank you for your feedback, Richie! I hope to see more of your project in the future. Sure, I'll send you the complete specifications later, but right now I can tell that there's no mystery about the hardware. I have 6 GP2D12 sensors and two of 'these' directly plugged to the arduino. That's it.

How to capture sound & video from Pd/Gem
by Markus Demmel 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

Hi List, does anybody know a good (working) way to capture audio and video from Pd/Gem under linux? So far i tried using glc-capture, which gives good video results, but refuses to record any sound at all. glc-capture should work with alsa, but it only outputs error messages like this: snd_pcm_open (input): Device or resource busy or [ 33.15s alsa_capture error ] initialization failed: Invalid argument ... markus

Yes....that's it. The patch loads fine now. I guess I should add the "-font-face Monaco" flag to the startup settings. Can you explain why this makes it work? Thanks very much for your help.

iemlib low pass filters exhibiting jitter?
by Luka Princic // Nova deViator 03 Mar '11

03 Mar '11

hi, just a quick question, is it normal or somewhat on purpose that all versions of low pass filters in iemlib (from lp2 - lp10 and cheb, butt, bess and crit) exhibit slight high pitched jitter when cutoff frequency is being dynamicly changed? is it a nature of such filter or just a type of implementation that somewhat doesn't take care of interpolation (if interpolation is a problem at all)? any thoughts welcome... is there a way i could avoid that jitter with these filters? is there some other high-pole low pass filter in some other library i could use? sure, i can always use series of [lop~] .. best, luka -- sujet est machinique!
