Pd on the Pi : Miller's version
by Pierre Massat 07 Dec '12

07 Dec '12

Dear list, I know that Miller Puckette has been working on improving Pd on the RPi lately, and I came upon a thread where he talks about his attempt to get audio in working, and mentioned his version of Pd compiled for the RPi. I would like to know in which respects it is different from the vanilla version one can grab from the Raspbian repository. I would also like to know if anybody has some feedback to give about audio in, and specially about the latency that can be achieved (and whether there is room for improvement or not). In short : an update on Pd on the Pi ? Cheers, Pierre.

Max's [rate~] implementation...
by Alexandros Drymonitis 07 Dec '12

07 Dec '12

How can one implement Max's [rate~] in Pd? [rate~] takes a signal from a [phasor~] and according to its argument it scales the frequency (roughly speaking). So [phasor~ 1] | [rate~ 1.5] will actually give a [phasor~ 1.5]. I thought of [wrap] but that won't do the trick with non-integers. Any ideas?

Increment/Decrement a number
by Sebastian Valenzuela 06 Dec '12

06 Dec '12

Hi, Can anyone help me figure out how to increase a number by 1 by pressing a button, then decrease it by 1 by pressing a different button? I've attached my attempt, but it is acting strange :/ Thank you, Sebastian

Text with bigger font?
by Sebastian Valenzuela 06 Dec '12

06 Dec '12

Hi, I'd like to title sections of my patch (ex. "Reverb", "Levels", etc.) in bigger font. The only way I know to do this is by writing comments, then increasing the font size in the edit menu... but this increases ALL font sizes! Is there any way of creating text in my patch with bigger font without universally affecting font size? Thank you, Sebastian -- Sebastian Ignacio Valenzuela Rojas Composer - Performer svalenzuelamusic.wix.com/home youtube.com/svalenzuelamusic <http://www.youtube.com/svalenzuelamusic>

[readanysf~] on OS X
by José Manuel Páez Moncaleano 06 Dec '12

06 Dec '12

Hi I'm trying to use the [readanysf~] object to make a playlist on an open virtual radio project The fact is that I've tried so hard to get Pd recognized the library but it seems it's just not working I've made a path I've located the folder on ~/Library/Pd I've created a new startup command I've tried to called it with [import] I've made a copy folder on inside the "extra" folder The thing is when Pd runs it shows me the next error Library/Pd/readanysf~/readanysf~.pd_darwin: dlopen(/Library/Pd/readanysf~/readanysf~.pd_darwin, 10): Library not loaded: /Library/Pd/readanysf~/libspeex.1.dylib Referenced from: /Library/Pd/readanysf~/libavformat.52.dylib Reason: Incompatible library version: libavformat.52.dylib requires version 7.0.0 or later, but libspeex.1.dylib provides version 4.0.0 anybody knows what can I do? PD. I've downloaded the library from the author's page http://aug.ment.org/readanysf/index.php

comport questions
by Pagano, Patrick 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hi With the recent talk about comport I have tried to use it to control a BenQ MX660P Projector and I am having no response from the machine. RS-232 protocol Baud Rate 115200 bps (default) Changeable(2400/4800/9600/14400/19200/38400/57600/115200) Setting in OSD menu Data Length 8 bit Parity Check None Stop Bit 1 bit The command to turn it on is: <CR>*pow=on#<CR> But I am getting no response from the machine. I am using the ascii list of bites to send the message, maybe this is incorrect? Perhaps someone may shed some light upon this for me? I am on Windows7, pd 42-5 extended Patrick Pagano, B.S, M.F.A Assistant in Digital Arts and Science Digital Media Projection and Audio Design Digital Worlds Institute University of Florida, USA (352)294-2020

Creating an Automatic Offset Adjuster
by Sebastian Valenzuela 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hello, I'm creating a patch that will adjust the volume of an incoming signal. It is controlled by the Yaw of a wii remote connected to my laptop via bluetooth ("OSCulator" app), but i've found that the data from the remote's gyroscope is constantly changing. For example, i'll turn the remote so the yaw turns the volume up 100%, then i'll move it around, but when I come back to this same position the yaw/volume will be 75% up. To fix this I've created a subpatch that stores the raw Yaw data into an array and uses the min/max of that array to adjust the range of the yaw data controlling the volume. The problem is that i've set the array to write over itself after the 99th index... so the min/max values are only stored for a few seconds before being over-written. This auto-offset adjuster works great ONLY for those few seconds where the array isn't over-written. Does anyone know the best way of doing this? I've attached the subpatch. Its hot inlet is where i send my raw gyroscope data, the cold inlet is used to turn on/off the patch, and the outlet is the scaled data (between 0-1) which controls volume. Sorry for the long message, thank you for your time. -Sebastian -- Sebastian Ignacio Valenzuela Rojas Composer - Performer svalenzuelamusic.wix.com/home youtube.com/svalenzuelamusic <http://www.youtube.com/svalenzuelamusic>

Re: [PD] Browse/Search plugin update
by Dan Wilcox 01 Dec '12

This is great. Just what we need for students getting into pd etc. Great work. Some feedback: - Can you make the breadcrumb nav links stand out a bit more? I didn't see them at first and was looking for a back button. Now we just need the libdir meta info for all externals!
