MIDI and JACK autoconnection is a PITA...
by Jörn Nettingsmeier 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

hi *! am i the only one who thinks that non-configurable autoconnection to jack and alsa-midi ports is a) wrong and b) a major pain in the ass? is there a way to prevent pd from doing this? particularly in the alsa midi case, it's a really blatant misfeature, because in the presence of a software midi thru port, it will immediately create a parameter loop which will make any connected midi controller go wild and burn its motors. my preferred behaviour would be no autoconnect at all. second best option is configurable auto-connect ports. i wonder what the rationale behind the current behaviour is? i mean, pd is all about drawing wires, so surely a pd user can be expected to be able to connect his/her audio and midi ports correctly? best, jörn -- Jörn Nettingsmeier Lortzingstr. 11, 45128 Essen, Tel. +49 177 7937487 Meister für Veranstaltungstechnik (Bühne/Studio) Tonmeister VDT http://stackingdwarves.net

[PD-announce] pd 0.43-3 released
by Miller Puckette 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Hi all, Pd version 0.43-3 is available on http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/software.htm or via git from sourceforge: git clone git://pure-data.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/pure-data/pure-data Main change from 0.43-2 is that MIDI input is improved on Mac and Windows. Also, I added a stub to future-proof Pd against a possible extension of the file format so that in the future there could be a way to set widths of boxes and stuff like that (and 0.43-3 would read those files and only complain once instead of complaining for pages.) I'm ready to start hacking on 0.44. The most urgent thing seems to be for me to go back and work on the audio system (and perhaps tweak MIDI a bit more too). The thing I'm actually looking forward to doing is to extend textfiles and message boxes and data structures to be able to spit lists of atoms around much more flexibly than now. Also pd vanilla needs tilde objects to do interpolating signal snapshots, phase-syncable oscillators, and other stuff on that level, also likely to be a lot of fun. cheers Miller _______________________________________________ Pd-announce mailing list Pd-announce(a)iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce

Pd on Lion - Chinese
by Ed Kelly 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Hi, I have a student from China, and every version of Pd I've tried on her machine either crashes or (with Pd-extended 0.42-5) hangs on load. locahost is there as far as I can tell from ifconfig The Activity Monitor application shows a red Pd-extended process, but since her computer was entirely in Chinese and I didn't have much time to resolve it, I don't know what it meant! Pd 0.43 amd Pd-extended 0.43 both started and quit. Any ideas? Has anyone experienced this and solved it? It's OS X, 10.7 Lion x Ed Gemnotes-0.2: Live music notation for Pure Data, now with dynamics! http://sharktracks.co.uk/

Browse/Search plugin update
by Jonathan Wilkes 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

I updated my search plugin by adding a progressbar: http://puredata.info/Members/jancsika/searchandbrowseplugin/view It also prints out the number of files it searched. There were some reports of a search taking over a minute, but with GNU/Linux and winxp I'm getting about 3 seconds for a little over 9,000 docs (I think I'm searching two different copies of pd-extended libs so that should be well over what you'd typically be searching). If people are getting long searches please start by telling me how many files you're searching. Also, the progressbar updates don't start until it's built a list of files and sorted it, so if it's taking a long time when you search before the progressbar appears then that may be the culprit. Now that the interface updates live I don't really think there's much need to build an index. You can start reading the first results immediately and even scroll the list as it finishes printing the results. (I guess I can also add a "Cancel" button, too.) Let me know if there are any bugs. -Jonathan

PKGBUILD of pd-extended 0.43-4 for Archers
by Fero Kiraly 30 Oct '12

30 Oct '12

Dear friends, I try to manage PKGBUILD of latest Pd-extended (svn & git) + latest Gem (git) for arch. For me it's running, what makes me happy because I am one of the new Archers. It is here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22509 I have some questions: 1.) I need to do some fixes...corrected name of pdlua library in: externals/loaders/pdlua/src/Makefile ... not problem at all... 2.) I created an empty file in : externals/ekext/ninjacount-help.pd (0 bytes, it is needed for build, dont ask me why...) WHY IS THIS FILE MISSING ? 3.) It is going well on x_64 ? (What I really do is copy&paste some code from older packege for x64 optimatization, not tested) 4.) How to create mime type for gnome in PKGBUILD (to have nice pd icons on pd files) ? 5.) Maybe a made some mistakes in dependecies etc. ??? >> so if is here some Master to manage this better I wolud appreciate that.. cheers -- Fero Kiraly www.cluster-ensemble.com

live patching with new instances of abstractions
by Alexandros Drymonitis 30 Oct '12

30 Oct '12

Hi all, I've been trying to make a patch where I can create connections of subpatches on the fly. These subpatches contain abstractions (for now the same abstracion everywhere, whcih is [inlet~] , only to check if what I wanna do is possible). [outlet~] I've made it in such a way that when I do feedback with the connections (e.x. 1st subpatch to 2nd to 1st), a new instance of the abstraction is being created. But when I turn the dsp on, a get the "error: DSP loop detected (some tilde objects not scheduled)" message. Even putting a [f $0] inside the abstraction won't solve this. I know I can skip this with [s~] and [r~], but it seems strange to me that this happens. Any ideas? Thanks

The interpolation of an array adding points / values just like tabwrite. I developed this external to him: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdinterpol/ For now it is only linear interpolation but I intend to develop other kinds soon. Cheers Schiavoni
