Thanks, Nick -- Nick Arner BA Music Technology Founder, First Chair-Capital AES Student Chapter Audio Technology Work-Study at The Banff Centre 330-495-8154

PD, sound, and differential/integral calculus
by Eric Mazza 25 Jun '12

25 Jun '12

Hi list, I'm in a summer calculus two course, and we are required to do a research project of our choosing as long as it includes the topics we have learned so far. I want to explore the relationship between this science and sound more closely, and decided to use Puredata as a medium. What are some areas in sound design/composition that involve calculus? Or topics that approach sound from a calculus standpoint? Thanks, maz

Thanks, Ill have to check out Perry Cook's Real Sound Synthesis. It may be what I'm looking for. I do have Andy Farnell's book. I haven't finished it though, other work took priority. From what I recall it wasn't too mathematically oriented, and I dont think it covers the topics in as mathematical details as I would like (and need) for this project.

problems with [tabread]'s behaviour
by Sebastian Hanusa 25 Jun '12

25 Jun '12

Hi everyone! Here once again my question with my patch in the current state of affairs: I have a problem with [tabread4 tilde] - perhaps I have overseen something. And perhaps someone can help me. I build a sampler with sound read in loops from arrays with [tabread tilde], controlled by [vline tilde]. It's working fine, but after 25 minutes the audio output stops although [vline tilde] is still working as before. And without any report in the pd-window. But [tabread4 tilde] doesn't give any more signal out. And the graphical represetaton of my sound is still in the arrays, too. First after recording a new sample in the array [tabread4 tilde] starts again with the output of sound (for about 25 minutes...). Do you have any idea what's wrong? I am working on pd-extended 0.42.5 on a MacBook 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with OS X 10.5.8 Thank you very much and with best regards, Sebastian Hanusa

Rounding counter idiom? Sample and hold?
by JF 24 Jun '12

24 Jun '12

I'm trying to run a metro based counter that will drive a sequencer with live quantise abilities. But I'm stuck because I can't seem to create a counter that will count not only up in ones but if I change the quantise value I need it to count up in 12.5s, 25s, 50s etc. etc. (The sequencer runs at 100 pulses per quarter note when in 'Free Time' mode so the 12.5, 25 & 50 refers to 32nd, 16th & 8th notes respectively.) I've tried changing the increment value in the counter but there's the problem of extra counts carrying over into the mode change knocking things out of sync. I think I'm looking for a sample and hold idiom? I'm probably missing something very silly... Thanks in advance, John.

Gentoo: cannot "emerge" puredata.
by Xavier Miller 24 Jun '12

24 Jun '12

Hello, On Gentoo, the installation of pd-0.43_p0 fails at installation phase : * /var/tmp/portage/puredata-base/pd-0.43_p0/distdir/src/pd.ico is not a valid file/directory! Is it the good place to mention it or do I need to find an other place? Kind regards, Xavier Miller.

variable receive objects?
by Jörn Nettingsmeier 24 Jun '12

24 Jun '12

hi *! i'm playing around with a theatre cue player written around readanysf, which i will post on the web as soon as i'm sure it's not going to be too embarrassing - need to pick up some more pd idioms first... so far, i've been able to create a nice gui using graph-on-parent, and all gui events are messages sent to receive objects, internally. for instance, hitting the "play" bang button will send the bang to cfPlayer$0SetPlay. the idea is that everybody can grab this event, not just the readanysf~ object. now i've painted myself into a corner: i want to create a midi controller abstraction which is separate from the player and gui. to that end, i have added an outlet to my player that contains the player's unique id $0. this outlet is connected to the controller object, which can now happily send messages back to the player, using message boxes: |inlet| <-- gets the parent player's $0 ID |set $1( | ( |; cfPlayer$1SetPlay bang( that gives me nice separation. the problem is that i want the controller object to be able to _listen_ to player events as well as generate them, so that the midi controller always reflects the current state, even if it was initiated elsewhere, such as via the gui or by loading a playlist item. is there a way to generate a variable receive object similar to a send via message box, whose source is defined at load time? something like this: |inlet| <-- gets the parent player's $0 ID |set $1( | ( |receive cfPlayer$1GetPlay( which, of course, doesn't work. or maybe i'm totally up the wrong alley, and someone can suggest a more idiomatic way to deal with this issue? what i want is this: player doesn't know or care who's controlling it. controller can (and does) have knowledge of the player event model. this way, i can easily add OSC or playlist controllers later, keeping the main player nice and simple. best, jörn -- Jörn Nettingsmeier Lortzingstr. 11, 45128 Essen, Tel. +49 177 7937487 Meister für Veranstaltungstechnik (Bühne/Studio) Tonmeister VDT http://stackingdwarves.net

MIDI input problems in PD
by Villa Anna 24 Jun '12

24 Jun '12

Dear list, I have problems with Midi input in PD. I use Windows 7 and make use of a Motu 828MKII soundcard. I receive MIDI via a polytouchin object (make use of FSRs and a coridium armmite to translate pressure on the FSRs to Midi messages). All goes fine in the beginning, but sometimes after a while (f.e. 2 hours) my Midi input starts to be random (FSRs trigger that are not supposed to be triggering). If I restart PD everything is back to normal. Any idea what the cause of this problem might be? It's an installation project so it is difficult to restart everything from time to time. Thanks in advance for your help! Laura

[PD-announce] Pd 0.43-3 test 1 released
by Miller Puckette 23 Jun '12

23 Jun '12

Hi all, Pd version 0.43-3 test1 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 There are small bug fixes (tabread4~ from very small tables; UTF-8 string overflow fix; array deletion while used in DSP). Also tried to fix the problems with MIDI input (actually USB "virtual MIDI" inputs) overflowing queues. Also adapted a GUI optimization by Hans-Cristophe that might make large graphical tables work somewhat better. cheers Miller _______________________________________________ Pd-announce mailing list Pd-announce(a)iem.at http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce
