Arduino, any feedback to help me choose the model?
by Pierre Massat 28 Apr '11

28 Apr '11

Hi all, I sorry to start yet another thread about arduino, but i'm too lazy to search the archives and i suppose that they are upgrading the different models frequently. I have been using a hacked gamepad-turned-stompbox to control my live patches, and right now i feel that it's time to build something else that would suit my needs more closely. I have to choose between a decent gamepad that i could hack and a arduino board. Only, i don't know anything about arduino. So it'd be nice if a list member could help me a little bit. Here's what i have right now : - 8 buttons + 1 potentiometer (in a pedal). I'd like to have more buttons (I could have 12 using the game controller, can i have more with a arduino board?). And it'd be nice if could have more "analog" pots (i could have up to 4 using the gamepad, but they're hard to solder...). Also, i'd like to know the "resolution" of the analog inputs of a arduino board. Is it higher than that of a gamepad? That'd be cool because i could have a smoother control over certain values in my patch. And finally, what do i need to connect the arduino board to Pd? Is it the HID object or something different? Any help welcome. Cheers! Pierre

Arduino - first impressions
by Pierre Massat 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

Hi all, I just tested my arduino board (uno) in pd, with a single pot. I wanted share my joy with you, because i managed to get it to work with Pd quite easily. I also wanted to say thank you very much to Hans, because Pduino is really cool, and i'm amazed by the time it took me to get it to work. Now that it's working, i have a few questions : - I'm assuming the more pins are open, the more CPU is consumed. Is that correct? - Is there a way i can change the "sample rate" of the analog inputs? The values don't seem to move smoothly when i turn the pot rapidly (i tested it by controlling the frequency of an oscillator). It's better when i bypass the "display values without pegging the cpu" object, but it's not perfect. Apparently using a 10 ms line~ works fine too. - Is the pduino object more cpu-consuming than hid? Cheers! Pierre

libpd and game engines (shiva3d?)
by Martin Eckart 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

I'm interested in using pd patches for game audio and was wondering if anyone had thoughts and suggestions about integration of libpd with existing game engines. So far I've briefly scoped out Unity, Blender and Shiva3D, all with their own drawbacks. Unity: Pricey, no linux games or editor, seems there's OSC plugin Blender: Gamekit for mobile? Not sure about its maturity Shiva3d: Builds to win/mac/linux/web/android/iphone..., No OSC support, promises a linux editor with 2.0 Torque: No android support? So far I'm leaning toward trying to tie libpd or osc into one of these engines in order to use libpd for audio. Shiva3D allows you to make plugins ( http://www.stonetrip.com/developer/doc/plugin/create ) which I think I could get working with some effort either by creating libpd or OSC plugins. Does anyone have opinions or experience with this? I'm really just looking for a mobile-ready graphics engine (like GEM!) that I can use to mess around with music. Would my time be better spent writing my own library in openGL ES (I just need simple graphics)? Should GEM be ported? How do would you make beautiful interfaces to pd on mobile devices? Cheers, -martin

readanysf for windows? (again)
by matteo sisti sette 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

Hi, Is there anything similar to readanysf~ available for Windows? I would like to be able to read the audio from mov video files. I've found some very old threads about failed attempts to port readanysf~ to windows. Has there been any success since then? Anybody that has been able to compile it for windows and could share the compiled binary? Or any similar external? thanks m. -- Matteo Sisti Sette matteosistisette(a)gmail.com http://www.matteosistisette.com

Pd-extended 0.42.5 dropped tk8.4 dependency only in source?
by Lorenzo Sutton 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

I had to install pd-extended on a Ubuntu Lucid box and the .deb listed in the download section still has a tk8.4 dependency, which in turns seems to give a font problem [1]? I downloaded the source tar.gz from the same page, compiled with the autobuild script and the generated deb doesn't have the dependecy any more. Lorenzo.

I suggest you contact some beekeeper directly, they are nice people generaly, and there are more and more of them in the cities now. You'll find the most natural and cheapest wax that way, probably for free (if you explain for what it is), and maybe meet some nice people ... ;) http://www.lbka.org.uk/index.php I could send some to you from brussels (from Okno or other place), but it is better you find some localy.

contact mic & beeswax
by Oded Ben-Tal 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

hi, quite a few places reccomend using beeswax to attach contact microphones to instruments. Looking around there are various types of products sold as beeswax for different applications (shoe-shine, furniture polishing, etc.) anyone knows what kind, and more importantly in which type of shop, should I get? I'm in London if that helps. thanks Oded

gridflow issues
by yvan volochine 26 Apr '11

26 Apr '11

hi, trying to debug a patch using gridflow-0.12 on pd-extended-0.42.5 (ubuntu-lucid), I have some issues: - some tcl errors at pd startup[1]: (tcl) invalid command name ".xb6cde8.c" while executing ".xb6cde8.c delete gf08c44168" and then (30 or more): .x8e3b590 no such object - then I tried to build gridflow-0.13 but it does not find half of the headers and I have a couple of gcc errors just with ./configure (libs not found are libdc1394, libmpeg3, quicktime, ... although they are all installed and can all be found in /usr/include) as updating the OS is not currently an option, I wonder if there is something obvious I'm missing... sorry for not posting the complete backtrace but this happened on another machine than mine ps: ruby-1.8.7 and gcc/g++-4.4.3 pps: gridflow-0.12 was installed from a *.deb any help is appreciated cheers, _y [1] those errors go away if I remove gridflow/abstractions from the pd-path
