Object or message to exit Pd
by Joel Matthys 26 Jul '15

26 Jul '15

Is there a way to close Pd (exit the program) from within a Pd patch? Something like [pd exit( or an external? I guess I could use [shell] and execute a killall pd but that seems rather extreme. Thanks, Joel

A song (partially) made using Pd
by Pierre Massat 25 Jul '15

25 Jul '15

Dear list, I have just published a new song I made. It might not be obvious, but I used Pd for the wha-wha effect on a guitar that can be heard throughout the song (I used the new [bob~] filter), and also for the drum track (actually samples from a drum machine, but played in a sequencer I made with Pd). https://pi-r.bandcamp.com/album/singles For those who don't speak French, it's about love and sunshine. Cheers, Pierre.

svn connect error
by Peter P. 25 Jul '15

25 Jul '15

Hi list, I am trying to check out pd from svn using svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/pure-data/svn/trunk pure-data-svn and I get svn: E000111: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/pure-data/svn/trunk' svn: E000111: Can't connect to host 'svn.code.sf.net': Connection refused Is this only me? The webpage http://sourceforge.net/p/pure-data/svn/ gives a 503 "Service Unavailable" Is svn still the correct and only tool to checkout pd trunk and keep it up-to-date? thanks for any pointers! P

Re: [PD] dmx interfaces + Pd
by jamal crawford 24 Jul '15

hi i use enttec dmx usb pro mk2 with qlc+ on arch linux with pd sending data to qlc+ via osc. it is very handy to use pd environment (esp. data structures) to make your own functions, send them to qlc+ (where you can compose your own fixtures, arrange groups, find channels etc.) and have enttec execute them pretty tightly (and up to 4 universes!). but this is all from light design perspective. cheers

Seems like very simple externals to make and I could go ahead and code them. I think they'd be really useful. For example, [scale~] would be essential to adjust the amplitude range from LFOs to control your patches. the [scale] would be good for adjusting MIDI input. > > cheers

Why does cross synthesis with [expr~] sound much better than [poltocar~]?
by Reed Perkins 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Hello list, I am trying my hand at some basic FFT stuff. I am designing a cross synthesis patch (see attached) where the amplitude from one signal is combined with the phase of another signal and fed into [rifft~]. The problem is that the polar to cartesian conversion using [poltocar~] sounds really bad. I worked out the trig formulas for what is going on, and found that using [expr~] to handle to polar to cartesian conversion sounds much better. Although I am happy with the [expr~] results, I am worried that I am not using [poltocar~] correctly, or understanding how to use it.The help files are very vague when it comes to the FFT objects in pd, so I was wondering if someone here could enlighten me as to what I'm doing wrong. Thanks and have an awesome day! -Reed

talking about partconv~: Win7/8 version anyone?
by Matthias Blau 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Hello all, now that so many partconv~ experts are active here, I would like to take the occasion to ask whether somebody have a version (even in its current imperfect state from SVN) working on Windows 7 or 8? Or alternatively, an easy-to-follow compilation recipe? Thank you again, Matthias

partconv~ outputs silence
by Matthias Blau 21 Jul '15

21 Jul '15

Hello list, I'm having trouble using partconv~ in a freshly compiled pd-0.46.6 on Ubuntu 14.04. First, if I use the distro-supplied pd-bsaylor package, then I get the usual 64bit error message: "An operation on the array '1003-ns_coeffs' in the patch '1003-ns_coeffs' failed since it uses garray_getfloatarray while running 64-bit!" I then compiled bsaylor from svn (partconv~.c from 2013/01/02, where 64bit access is supposedly fixed) and voila - no error message, pd apparently loads partconv~ ok: "partconv~: using 1003-ns_coeffs in 1 partitions with FFT-size 1024" Unfortunately, I don't get anything out of the filter. The fiter itself works (e.g. using FIR~). Any hints? Thanks, Matthias

GEM preview inside a patch - The comeback
by Olivier Baudu 21 Jul '15

21 Jul '15

Hi List, Two years ago I posted here an abstraction to get a incredible ~4 fps preview of GEM inside the patch using canevas. It was so optimized that some of you believed it was a malware... :-p Reminder: http://codelab.fr/4343 Today I offer you a ~8 fps black & white GEM preview inside the patch using... well... Let's see it by yourself... :-p https://vimeo.com/134044962 You're welcome... :o) Cheers °1ivier -- "On ne peut pas vivre dans un monde où l'on croit que l'élégance exquise du plumage de la pintade est inutile.

small 2015 pc for pd?
by ian campbell 19 Jul '15

19 Jul '15

Hello list, I have a 2008 mac mini with a matrox box that I have been running some vj pd patches on. I made the mistake of running three 720p quicktimes on it, and it was painfully jerky. I need a new portable box. I think I will switch to ubuntu. Does anyone have a suggestion for the best bang for the buck in terms of GPU power in a small format? I have been reading about these NUCs from intel and something called the Brix from gigabyte. Or should I just get a new mini? thank you for suggestions! -- <http://www.iancampbell.org>http://www.iancampbell.org (art homepage) http://www.greenplasticfilms.com (filmblog) http://www.robohobos.com (3dprint/artblog) http://www.botheringmyself.com (video art)
