Laptop + interface suggestion
by João Pais 24 Mar '17

24 Mar '17

Dear list, I'm looking to buy new laptop and a matching audio interface for daily use + audio performance/programming (not video). I would be interested to know what are the current trends nowadays, and what experiences you have. My current setup is: - windows 10 (won't change) - Lenovo X61s (I'm a bit of a fanboy for ibm/lenovo) - RME multiface (still with pcmcia card) I would be looking for a similar setup: - a robust laptop where to run w10. The less weight the better, even if it sacrifices some performance. - which audio interfaces are used nowadays, compared with the multiface? E.g. with at least 8 analog outlets (I don't need that many inlets), and also a digital outlet. Also the less weight and size the better - a half-case size such as the multiface is quite convenient. - the computer will be used for day-to-day activities: office, notation (sibelius/finale), and Pd audio programming. No games or too taxing environments, so some features such as a high-power graphics card or the latest ssd disk should be necessary. Best regards, Joao

how does env~ work?
by Alexandre Torres Porres 24 Mar '17

24 Mar '17

howdy, help file says "The analysis is "Hanning" (raised cosine) windowed." how does that work? I tried looking at the code and got no clue... I assume it's not just passing the input through a hanning window, and one way or another, it's gotta compensate it, right? But how? cheers

Fastest way to find lines in text file
by Jack 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

Hello, I need to find every lines of a textfile containing a word. The textfile has 2.539.592 lines. Now, i am using [msgfile] from zexy because i can find a line, skip a line and find again ... until the end of the textfile. But, i am wondering if there is an other object (in an other library) faster, specialized in this work ? Thanx. ++ Jack

Pd / Purr-Data and Ausus Tinkerboard - analog sound card does not show up (alsa)
by Ingo 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

I'm testing the Asus Tinker Board at the moment but I cannot get Pd (0.46.2) or Purr-Data to talk to the internal sound card of the tinker board. It simply does not show up, neither as a normal user nor as root. I'm on Tinker-OS 1.4 which is the latest version as of now. In the Purr-Data preferences I can see these available (alsa audio) options: - USB Audio (hardware) - USB Audio (plug-in) - rockchip.miniarm-codec (hardware) - rockchip.miniarm-codec (plug-in) The rockchip.miniarm-codec gives me sound on my HDMI monitor but no sound from the regular analog audio out. When I open the VLC player I get this for the audio devices: - BT_HFP-Output - SPDIF-Output - Headset-Output - rockchip.miniarm-codec Analog Stereo - USB Audio Analog Stereo Option 3 (the Headset-Output) gives me sound from the analog audio out connector as expected. Unfortunately this option does not show up in purr-data. Has anybody else tried this board? Any ideas how to get sound from the normal audio out? After testing with Purr-Data only I just installed Pd 0.46.2 but I get the same options and no sound from the audio out jack. Thanks for your feedback! Ingo

list of vanilla PD objects?
by Scott R. Looney 22 Mar '17

22 Mar '17

hey folks this may have been covered before, but just curious if there's a list of all the objects (not externals) in alphabetical order? i know about the list of object section in the Browser but that's not as helpful as it tries to save space a lot. there's an oldish website ( http://blog.joehahn.ws/list-puredata-objects-and-extended-objects) which comes close but ideally i'd just like a text list. i was reading somewhere that deken has such a thing? does that automatically come with version 47.1 on the Mac or does it need to be installed? informations on that or any list version of pd objects appreciated! best, scott

Strange GUI broken on Windows 10
by Jonghyun Kim 21 Mar '17

21 Mar '17

Some of my students found this problem. This problem only occurs on some Windows 10 systems. I do not know the details yet, but I will check it again later. Anyone know why this problem occurs? This is VU-Meter [vu] Pd-0.47-1 Windows 10 (Korean OS) Photos attachment. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8142442/Pd-question/gui-%20broken-pd-0.… https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8142442/Pd-question/gui-%20broken-pd-0.… PS: Can I upload photos to this Pd mailing list? Thanks, Jonghyun
