searchpath inside patch
by Achim Bornhoeft 18 Jan '16

18 Jan '16

Is there a possibility to put a statement (relative pathname) inside a patch where to look for additional abstractions, for example to search for abstractions inside a subfolder "abs" which is in the same directory than the patch itself. Thanks for help, Achim

(breaking symbols) was Re: find a list of numbers in a text file
by Alexandre Torres Porres 05 Dec '14

05 Dec '14

now, some files come in ratios as one symbol like this 5/4 3/2 7/4 I'd need to break them into different characters, then treat as numbers to get interval in cents. How do I do that? I believe I can't do it in any way with vanilla objects, right? thanks Alex 2011/8/3 Alexandre Torres Porres <porres(a)gmail.com> > yeah, it works :) > > I knew there had to be an easier way other than the mess I did. > > Perfect, Thanks > > This is a very cool addon feature to my stuff I'm showing at PdCon, see you > all there. > > See you all there soon! > > > > > 2011/8/3 Miller Puckette <msp(a)ucsd.edu> > >> HI Alex -- >> >> Have you tried sending textfile an "open [my-filename] cr" message?

udp broadcasting with netsend: permission denied in Linux
by Matteo Sisti Sette 08 Nov '14

08 Nov '14

Hi, I've used netsend for broadcasting UDP packets to the local network for years, connecting to 255.255.255.255:5000 (or any other port >1024) and I never had problems under Windows. However in Linux it doesn't work, it doesn't connect. If I run Pd from a terminal, I see this error in the terminal output: "connecting stream socket: Permission denied (13)" (one of the few errors that don't appear in the pd console btw). I remember mentioning this some time ago and being told that it had been fixed, but it seems it isn't. Is there a way to circumvent this and be able to broadcast udp packets with netsend? thanks m.

acid
by Chris McCormick 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

Hi, Another question in a very general vein. I asked this on the Csound list a while back (when i was using csound) with good results. I'm trying to produce an acidy type sound (eg 303) and having trouble as my current saw-tooth-through-a-vcf just sounds pretty wimpy. Any ideas on how to fatten it up a bit? I'm not looking for a perfect reproduction of the 303 sound, just a nice acid sound. Hints? Tips? Is there some place where people post interesting Pd patches they've created for others to download at try out? Should there be?

midirealtimein error message, is it still needed?
by hard off 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

was just messing round with [midirealtimein] on linux. no problem it seems. my friend in berlin got it going fine on os x. so, is there still any need for the 'error: midirealtimein only works under MSW' message that is sent to the console upon load?

Preset saving with SSSAD
by András Murányi 30 Jul '13

30 Jul '13

Dear list, i'm having a kind of naive question. I've been using the glorious SSSAD abstraction (with [presetstore]) to save&load presets in a huge patch, but i'm missing more and more the ability to save&load presets for individual parts of the patch only. E.g. i have two sequencers in the patch, for which i wish to save&load presets independently. I know it's easy to send presets to individual parts when you have hand-made those presets, but what about saving? Is it that the current architecture of SSSAD does not allow this? Then is there a way to modify/develop it to make this possible? Or if it allows, how to do it? Any ideas highly appreciated! Thanks, Andras

Midi note handling for monophonic synth
by Joe White 25 Feb '13

25 Feb '13

Hi all, I'm implementing a synth in Pd using midi/notein as an input. One problem I keep coming up against is handling note off messages. This guy's blog post describes the issue - http://kemptonmooney.com/2010/09/pure-data-midi-note-off-solution/ However, I think his solution is not exactly what I'm looking for. The synths I use in Logic have note priority methods and remember all held down notes (or at least 10). I wondering if anyone has managed to implement something like this in Pd or might know where I can find out more about it. ddg.mono from Max ( http://www.cycling74.com/docs/max5/refpages/m4l-ref/ddg.mono.html) looks similar to what I want - but I don't use Max and I don't think I can access the source. Any ideas? Thanks, Joe

Mac OSX 10.7 resume states crash Pd-extended
by Dan Wilcox 18 Apr '12

18 Apr '12

Since I've upgraded to Mac OSX 10.7 Lion, I've noticed Pd-extended 0.42.5 seemed to crash on startup sometimes, while other times it was fine. It finally dawned on me that OSX is trying to load the previous "saved state" since I had CMD-Q'd Pd with windows open. It automatically opens those windows at start. I assume pd is not yet ready for these and crashes due to some init order issue ... If anyone else has noticed this, a quick fix is to delete the save state so you can open Pd again. Then make sure to close all windows before quitting the next time ... thanks for the "help" apple. http://osxdaily.com/2011/07/17/delete-specific-application-saved-states-fro… Commandline: rm -rf ~/Library/Saved\ Application\ State/org.puredata.* -------- Dan Wilcox danomatika.com robotcowboy.com
