Pd-extended or Pd??
by Clemens 24 Aug '18

24 Aug '18

Hello List, I was told Pd-extended isn't stable like Pd, what do you think? Which software do you recommend to a beginner? My OS is Ubuntu-Studio and the main use is for live-electronics. And can you recommend a tutorial about: HOW to install PD and all the libs! What is about deken?? Thank you very much! Clemens

readsf~: timing of bang at outlet
by Peter P. 21 Aug '18

21 Aug '18

Hi list, it should be possible to have readsf~ loop without a gap by using a soundfile that has no discontinuities in its audio signal at the end/start, and whose length is a multiple of Pd's block size (64 by default). Yet I do get clicks when I try this. In a conversation with the helpful and great IOhannes we looked at the logic and timing of readsf~ banging its right outlet. Can it be that it bangs one block too late in order to loop seemlessly? See attached patch. By the way, looping playback from a table via tabplay~ does also click when using its right outlet (which is undocumented in the helpfile I happen to see right now). Thanks for all hints! Peter

Re: [PD] How do I send location of absolute path to a subpatch, (in a different directory)?
by Jérôme Abel 17 Aug '18

17 Aug '18

Hi, I think you could enjoy using [path] from "tof" library (Help > Find externals). You can choose the path from the abstraction or from the patch which loads it. Hope that helps -- Jérôme Abel / http://jeromeabel.net

How do I send location of absolute path to a subpatch (in a different directory)?
by Nakul Tiruviluamala 16 Aug '18

16 Aug '18

Hi guys, I've written an abstraction that currently generates a text document in the directory that the abstraction is in. However, ideally I could store this abstraction in my "lib" folder and the same abstraction would create generate a text file in the folder local to my current project. This way, I don't have to clone copies of this abstraction whenever I want to generate text files for different projects. Any help is greatly appreciated! Patch attached. Thanks, Nakul

[GEM-dev] Blackmagic Deck Link Duo + Gem
by hi 13 Aug '18

13 Aug '18

I am back at this problem. What i did: i commented out line 218 in videoDECKLINK.cpp it was: verbose(1, „[GEM:videoDECKLINK] checking format ‚%s‘“, dmn); i used ./configure --with-DeckLink-CFLAGS="-I/home/thalia/Downloads/Blackmagic_DeckLink_SDK_10.10/Blackmagic_DeckLink_SDK_10.10/Linux/include" --with-DeckLink-LIBS="-L/home/thalia/Downloads/Blackmagic_DeckLink_SDK_10.10/Blackmagic_DeckLink_SDK_10.10/Linux/Samples/bin/x86_64/lib" --with-pd=/usr/include/pd and the .so files are created, but it still cannot use the plugin. IOhannes, I did as you suggested, and attached all the outputs to this mail, maybe you or anybody can see something here. best and thx -j- *im sending this mail again, since it was rejected in size. I took away make-output. > Am 12.06.2018 um 22:41 schrieb IOhannes m zmölnig <zmoelnig(a)iem.at>: > > On 06/12/2018 01:16 PM, Johnny Mauser via GEM-dev wrote: >> Yes, it installed in the correct place.

distinction Pd lingo: abstraction, subpatch, subwindow
by Max 13 Aug '18

13 Aug '18

In the helpfiles and on this list the three words 'abstraction' 'subpatch' or 'sub-patch' 'subwindow' are used. could someone provide a definition of those? I suspect they aren't used in a consistent way throughout the documentation. m.

XML parsing
by Esteban Viveros 12 Aug '18

12 Aug '18

Hi! I'm looking for a solution for XML parsing. I found jasch_lib [detox] but it crashes pd in OSx and don't have RPi binary disponible in deken. I tried [jasch_lib/detox] in purr data and it still crash. My goal is to recognize some identifiers and make it disponible in some matrix or vector for sonification purposes. There are other external or vanilla way can it be done? Cheers -- www.estebanviveros.com
