Recording audio to mp3 using LAME or ffmpeg ?
by Pierre Massat 04 Nov '12

04 Nov '12

Dear List, How would you go about recording the audio output of a Pd patch directly to mp3 (or any other compressed format actually), without using the object from the Unauthorized library ? Would it be feasible to use the [shell] object with a script using ffmpeg or LAME ? I don't really know whether there would be serious timing uses, who to use those for recording a stream instead of a file, how to send Pd's audio out... I could always record to wav and run a script afterwards to compress and delete the original file, but i'd rather have something more direct. Cheers, Pierre.

rjdj is gone, robotcowboy is coming ...
by Dan Wilcox 03 Nov '12

03 Nov '12

Hey all, So it seems the rjdj app is off the iOS app store already :( Just letting you know I have an alternative coming for running pd patches on iOS & desktop: the robotcowboy app. It's basically my performance environment as an app including pd, midi, osc, and a Processing-like lua scripting environment. I could use some help on beta testing, website work, etc soon since I'm trying to get this out *while* planning/working on my masters thesis project (robotcowboy is going to Mars!). Any help would be greatly appreciated. This app is being built in OpenFrameworks, so it works on Mac/Win/Lin & iOS. Android support could be added, but I don't have an android device. https://github.com/danomatika/robotcowboy -------- Dan Wilcox danomatika.com robotcowboy.com

24bit file bug
by peiman khosravi 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Dear all, I reported this a few months ago and it was acknowledged as a bug. The latest version of pd is still unable to read 24bit files to table. Unless I'm doing something wrong? (See attached file but please be careful with the volume as it is deafening). Please try this with a 24bit aif file. Thanks Peiman

mysterious segfault while receiving midi commands...
by Jörn Nettingsmeier 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

hi *! two days ago, my pd-based cue player (btw, new release at http://stackingdwarves.net/public_stuff/software/CueFrog/) chashed and burned during a live show. not good. pd segfaulted while i had one six-channel instance of readanysf running and five more two-channel instances stopped, at the precise moment when i was sending a midi cc to stop the running player and another to start a new one, while i was at the same time moving a midi fader for volume control. unfortunately, i had core dumps disabled, and as luck would have it, the crash seems impossible to reproduce without an audience of 200 and a director to go ballistic. so unless someone has an audience simulator test scaffold: what are, in your experience, the most likely causes of such sudden segfaults, and are there workarounds or defensive practices which i could implement? i'm using the current releases of pd-vanilla, vbap and readanysf~. in case someone feels inclined to look at my programming style and lead me back to the path of righteousness, the actual show patch i was using on top of CueFrog is at http://stackingdwarves.net/download/pd-crash.pd looking forward to your ideas! best jörn -- Jörn Nettingsmeier Lortzingstr. 11, 45128 Essen, Tel. +49 177 7937487 Meister für Veranstaltungstechnik (Bühne/Studio) Tonmeister VDT http://stackingdwarves.net

the reason why I not used GEM from branch is that it cant compile it> I got this error which I cant to manage: /usr/share/automake-1.12/am/depend2.am: error: am__fastdepOBJCXX does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL when I use GEM from git, everything is OK. SO I am sorry for this salad but ... -- Fero Kiraly www.cluster-ensemble.com

firm delay scheduling
by Jean-Marie Adrien 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Hello I'm trying to launch security procedures in case of trouble, that will respond in less than 250 msec. The fundamental question is : Is there an object to schedule an event in the future with firm absolute delay ? {realtime} measures time AFTER the problem (no scheduling) {del} schedules things but the delay is kind of elastic, depending on the CPU load. thanks JM

Because of Hans (thanks Hans) suggestion I did a NO SVN pkgbild. It should be the REAL latest version of pd-extended 0.43-x here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44798 it was born from: https://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pure-data/branches/pd-extende… ------- the latest pd-extended 0.43.x git://pd-gem.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/pd-gem/Gem ------- the latest GEM git://pure-data.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/pure-data/pd-extended.git ------- the latest pd-extended core + mime types (it depends now on hicolor-icon-theme) or am I wrong about the latest sources ?? I have a question again. On aur.archlinux.org it is shown as Pure Data Extended 0.43-1 version, BUT IT IS 0.43-4 NOW. Where I did mistake in PKGBUILD ? cheers paum

Re: [PD] Routing MIDI on windows machines?
by Dan Wilcox 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

As this is probably a question that will keep coming up, I decided to wrap up some of the answers in one of the puredata.info FAQ pages: http://puredata.info/docs/faq/midiinput Please double check this and make any changes you see fit. I know I've said this before, but we should always strive to get some of the great info here off list and onto the FAQ / PD website.
