moog~ in pure pd?
by Dan Wilcox 18 Feb '16

18 Feb '16

Forgive me, I'm no low level dsp guru. I'm curious. How would one make the ggee [moog~] external in pure pd? [vcf~] sounds close, but of course, it's a band pass so it's not a real replacement. I messed with rjlib [e_beequad= + [u_lowpassq] which sounds pretty good, but there no signal rate frequency control, which I'd need for those nice filter sweeps. I'm trying to lessen my reliance on externals (where possible) and moog~ is one of those without an obvious replacement. -------- Dan Wilcox @danomatika danomatika.com robotcowboy.com

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

slide~ (msp) in pd
by peiman khosravi 08 Jun '15

08 Jun '15

Since I'm on a mailing spree: how can I make a pd version of slide~ (MSP), which, according to the msp reference, is a logarithmic lowpass filter for smoothing envelops. Anything similar will do. I'm using vline~ for now to smooth out midi faders but it doesn't feel quite the same. And on a related subject: what is the best way to create an exponential signal ramp? Many Thanks Peiman *www.peimankhosravi.co.uk || RSS Feed<http://peimankhosravi.co.uk/miscposts.rss> || Concert News <http://spectralkimia.wordpress.com/>*

(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?

Re: [PD] Legal restrictions for apps
by Dan Wilcox 12 Jun '14

Well, it seems like all the authors agree and there's already an LGPL license. I only brought up all of this due to the inconsistency between whats actually there in the source files. I'd love for that to just be changed and we all move on. It's not like this is a huge patent / money maker thing. If being anal and bringing this to light truly means I *can't* use it in the long run, well than I should have done what most everyone else does in these situations: use it and keep my mouth shut :P. We know what is allowed / not allowed by Apple, don't need a lawyer for that.

literal $0 from message to gui send and gui receive
by Billy Stiltner 17 Apr '14

17 Apr '14

hey, I have been trying to rename sends and receives of dials at runtime they need actual literal $0 in their name. so I tried this with sending a 0 to $$4 in a message it worked for the literal renaming but the patch gets messed up after saving and reloading. somehow the patch does need to be able to be edited and saved without changeing the $$4 to a $\$4 once reloaded after a save. this is what the patch looks like from the .pd file after a save. #X msg 188 -194 \; \$1-o\$2-waveform-rx receive \$$4-o\$3-waveform-rx \; \$1-o\$2-dt-rx receive-rx \$$4-o\$3-dt-rx \; \$1-env\$2-o\$2-dt-rx receive \$$4-env\$3-o\$3-dt-rx \; \$1-lfo\$2-o\$2-dt-rx receive \$$4-lfo\$3-o\$3-dt-rx \; \$1-o\$2-pw receive-rx \$$4-o\$3-pw-rx \; \$1-env\$2-o\$2-pw-rx receive \$$4-env\$3-o\$3-pw-rx \; \$1-lfo\$2-o\$2-pw-rx receive \$$4-lfo\$3-o\$3-pw-rx \; \$1-env\$2-o\$2-rx receive \$$4-env\$3-o\$3-rx \; \$1-lfo\$2-o\$2-rx receive \$$4-lfo\$3-o\$3-rx; #X msg -109 -193 \; \$1-o\$2-waveform-rx send \$$4-o\$3-waveform \; \$1-o\$2-dt-rx send \$$4-o\$3-dt \; \$1-env\$2-o\$2-dt-rx send \$$4-env\$3-o\$3-dt \; \$1-lfo\$2-o\$2-dt-rx send \$$4-lfo\$3-o\$3-dt \; \$1-o\$2-pw-rx send \$$4-o\$3-pw \; \$1-env\$2-o\$2-pw-rx send \$$4-env\$3-o\$3-pw \; \$1-lfo\$2-o\$2-pw-rx send \$$4-lfo\$3-o\$3-pw \; \$1-env\$2-o\$2-rx send \$$4-env\$3-o\$3 \; \$1-lfo\$2-o\$2-rx send \$$4-lfo\$3-o\$3; ------------------------------
