[pdconv16_r] call for topic ideas, Pd convention round table discussion
by Miller Puckette 01 Dec '16

01 Dec '16

To Pd list, Joe Deken and Jaime Oliver and I are interested in setting up a round table discussion to consider possible future developments for Pd vanilla. I have a lengthy list of ideas and I'm sure many of you have ideas as well. To prepare for this, it would be helpful to collect some of them in advance. If you have a direction you'd like to see Pd development go in, please feel free to suggest it in a followup e-mail to this one. NOTE: this might generate a hurricane of discussion threads - in order to make it possible for Joe to collect ideas (as he has offered to do) please keep the tag "pdconv16_r" in the subject line. Better yet, add your own phrase to the subject line to disambiguate it. Also please send a copy of your post here for efficient compilation: pdcon_round(a)newblankets.org cheers Miller

[PD-announce] All-in-one 'websocket server + cross-browser multiplayer/multitouch demo' patch for Pd-extended
by Nicolas Lhommet 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

"websocket-server in a patch.pd" single pd patch file contains a reusable and fully documented websocket server, meant as an easy way to experiment with Pd<->web-browsers communications through websockets, without the need of other software or any external to compile A demo is included in the same patch : 'Flames', a simple cross-browser, multi-touch and multi-player graphical interface which makes Pd play creepy sounds :) and its javascript code for websockets is also documented. Just try it : open it with Pd-extended 0.43.4 on Windows, Mac or Linux, fire any recent web-browsers (on same machine or other computer, smartphone or tablet on same local network) with the URL provided in the main window, and you're good to go ! You can download the patch from these forums : http://puredata.hurleur.com/sujet-10062-websocket-server-patch-extended-dem… required to get the file) direct link to patch : http://puredata.hurleur.com/attachment.php?item=4945 Cheers, Nicolas Lhommet

likeing to do everything very mobile, would love to know a good resource for finding android development apps that can be run right on the android that runs them, or alternatively like a good url for learning how to root them, so the perfect ubuntustudio that is out now can be booted from usb , current android is rca viking pro, thnx in advance

[pdconv16_r] Expanding abstractions & Compiling Vanilla Patches As Objects (Gen~?)
by Alexandre Torres Porres 02 Nov '16

02 Nov '16

howdy, as I have no technical idea this is an inquire and, if possible, a feature request. I wonder if a thing like libpd could work as turning a vanilla patch into a compiled object to be used inside pd... that'd be something like gen~ in max/msp. I also have some requests to expand the functionality of abstractions to behave more like objects such as: A- being able to retrieve control data from [inlet~]; B - being able to know if a signal is connected to [inlet~]. cheers

Weird issue: need to increase Pd latency in FFT patches, otherwise Pd sound output glitches and clocks are slowing down!!!
by Christof Ressi 01 Nov '16

01 Nov '16

Hi, I have the following issue with Pd 0.47.1 on Win 7 (onboard soundcard + ASIO4ALL and also Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 + Focusrite ASIO Driver): When I use more than just a few FFTs anywhere in my patch, I get a staggering sound output + clicks from Pd unless I increase the Pd latency... Apparently, it's only the playback because I couldn't hear it in a recording I made with [writesf~]. Therefore I made a recording in Reaper to show you what I'm hearing. The more FFTs and the larger the FFT blocksize, the larger I have to set the latency. This even happens if the CPU load is as little as 5% (where 25% would be the maximum for one hardware thread on my laptop). In my test patch, I put a couple of FFT subpatches and a single sine wave with a volume control to check the sound output. Usually, I can play a sine wave without artifacts as long as the CPU load is not peeking. But here, the FFTs seem to magically disturb the audio output of the whole patch... I think there's something going wrong with the scheduler because also objects like [metro] and [line] start to go slower - sometimes up to 50%! What is going on!? Christof

Re: [PD] PD doesn't quit / solved

Problems seems solved after deactivating callback in audio prefs. I had not used that option (conciously at least) before, but removing the tick did the trick. jrp On 31 Oct 2016, at 21:02, pd-list-request(a)lists.iem.at wrote: > Re: PD doesn't quit

IOhannes, i am not using any externals, just a standard vanilla install. [;pd quit( hangs as much as quitting via menu, as soon as audio/dsp was active. If i quit DSP even on an empty patch, then the PD window still says “audio on”. I am using PD only with CoreAudio. Jack defied installation last time i tried ;) Ingo, i didn’t use [shell] (ever). Strange. jrp > > On 10/31/2016 07:19 PM, jlistshit wrote: >> Especially after the use of DSP I can only quit PD by force, > > have you tried [; pd quit(? > >> and yet it leaves pd threads running, although the frontmost application has quit. > > which threads? > > this sounds a bit like a problem with some externals you are using. > also, which audio API are you using? jack? > > gfrdsa > IOhannes

PD doesn't quit
by jlistshit 31 Oct '16

31 Oct '16

Hello everyone, PD vanilla (0.46-7 and 0.47-1) shows a strange behaviour on my machine (OSX 10.9.5) and only since some weeks. Especially after the use of DSP I can only quit PD by force, and yet it leaves pd threads running, although the frontmost application has quit. This error could be related to subpatches still running and/or abstractiosn being used and running or not, but i couldn’t finally verify this. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you very much in advance. jayrope - - - www.jayrope.com www.aircushionfinish.com www.ello.co/jayrope

flip flop, pulse divider...
by Simon Iten 31 Oct '16

31 Oct '16

hi list, in the “real” circuit world it is really easy to divide a pulse by 2 with a flip flop circuit. is there a flip flop implementation for puredata somewhere? i would like to divide an incoming audio pulse by 2 without much delay (avoiding fiddle~ and the like) the pw of the original wave does not have to be preserved, square output is ok. (as in real world) cheers simon
