[PD-announce] [vstplugin~] v0.2.0 final release
by Christof Ressi 28 Oct '19

28 Oct '19

Hi, I'm happy to share the final release of [vstplugin~] v0.2.0. Binaries are available on Deken. The source code is here: https://git.iem.at/pd/vstplugin/-/releases Note that you can also load LV2 plugins with lv2vst: https://github.com/x42/lv2vst. I've tested this on Debian and generally it seems to work fine. Have fun! Christof --- Changelog: new features: * VST2 shell plugin support (e.g. "Waves", "Blue Ripple Sound") * (experimental) VST3 support including sample accurate automation and auxiliary inputs/outputs for side-chaining * soft-bypass * faster search/probe (parallel) * cache search/probe results in a file to speed up subsequent searches * [param_set( and [param_get( now also accept parameter names instead of indices (whitespace is bashed to underscores). * set editor window position with [pos( message. changes: * switched whole project to CMake * removed 'vstsearch' object because of the new cache file system. * removed [precision( message (the processing precision can only be set at creation time). internal changes: * use .ini like syntax for plugin info * hard-bypass prefers the plugin's bypass method * single event loop shared by all plugins * probably many more... _______________________________________________ Pd-announce mailing list Pd-announce(a)lists.iem.at https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce

Hi Max, Patrick Max, sorry I didn't know PD-Annouce was linked in some way to the PD list. I'll keep in mind for the next time. Patrick, there will be a repo available soon. I'll keep you posted. Cheers, Mario

Iemlib fixed~!
by pat pagano 28 Oct '19

28 Oct '19

Hi Folks I was having a heck of a time with iemlib on windows64 and i think i must have assumed it was pre-compiled Well, after fooling with a few times i compiled it for 64 bit and pd 50 Should i share the results to deken? or is the expectation that people would compile their own versions? I also noted that one must load iemlb now as well at startup not just it's path -- *Patrick Pagano B.S, M.F.A* *Assistant Professor, *Interactive Media & Education Audio Projection & Performance Design Howard Community College *Columbia, Maryland USA* *http://shreeswifty.github.io <http://shreeswifty.github.io>* *(352)226-2016*

r_cycle | creative coding with Pure Data and Launchpad
by Mario Buoninfante 28 Oct '19

28 Oct '19

Hi, October 29th I'm giving a talk about r_cycle, an open source library/middleware for creative coding with Launchpad, at the Novation pop-up shop in Shoreditch, London. About the library/middleware: r_cycle allows to fully control Launchpad from Pd (bi-directional communication), giving the user the possibility to interact with the device, to create custom UIs in real-time, on-the-fly, simply creating specific objects (part of the library) in Pd. It has different 'widgets' and audio/MIDI/utilities objects, all written in Pd Vanilla, thus doesn't use any external. For example creating the [KEYBOARD] object in your patch, would generate a 'chromatic keyboard' on the LP (1 octave/12 notes keyboard represented on the pads). This would be interactive (ie you press a pad part of the keyboard UI on the Launchpad and the object in the patch returns one or more values) and can be deleted simply deleting the [KEYBOARD] object in Pd. It is possible to use multiple widgets at the same time (you can fill the Launchpad layout), and also to call multiple scenes. If you're in London on Tue and you wanna know more, here's more details about the event: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/novation-london-learn-hackspace-r-cycle-crea… Cheers, Mario

Live sample looping
by Joey Dodson 25 Oct '19

25 Oct '19

I'm trying to build a live sample looper, as is often seen in guitar loop stations or loop pedals. I need it to record a sample to memory and then loop it back as soon as the recording is finished. I'm able to use [tabwrite~] with [else/table~] to get close, but I don't know how to set resize a table as it's being written to (or if that's possible). I might be able to start with an oversized buffer and then use [timer] to resize afterwards, but this seems less than ideal since I would have to choose a maximum size and then start all tables out with that size. Thanks in advance for any suggestions! Joey

version 0.50 64bit Windows crashing on OSC data
by Scott R. Looney 24 Oct '19

24 Oct '19

hi folks! first thing i'd like to ask is where the application crash logs for PD are stored for Windows 10. i'm having an extremely frustrating time getting PD 0.50 64bit to perform reliably and stably. the latest crashes are a result of a new preset system i'm using that sends positions of controls from a Unity created interface via OSC to PD. i suppose it might be an issue of too many data packets but i don't think i'm sending it gobs of data (maybe 60-70 controls total). however making the preset change from my interface makes PD crash. this is in addition to crashes and freezes that i get generally, especially when i configure MIDI or audio. so i figure the first step is to look at the crash logs to see what part of PD or possibly a external, makes it crash. thanks to advice from others, esp Lucas, regarding ASIO, i'm getting better low-latency response from the audio at least, but overall it's still barely alpha stable in a performance setting. any advice appreciated! scott

Re: [PD] compiling externals for Pure Data windows
by Dan Wilcox 23 Oct '19

23 Oct '19

I think this is a good idea. Ideally, for me at least, this would be documented in the source code as comments before the structs in question. A second approach is, as you suggest, some sort of external document such as another text file like a "Getting Started for Developers" guide, say DEVELOP.txt. This would be a good place to introduce the core/GUI relationship, basics of debugging Pd (build with -g and use gdb/lldb), code structure overview, and perhaps some other useful tricks like using the find console command to search the source files. I basically have a script which uses find to help be print out the location of functions, variable names, etc which is *always* helpful as I never remember where anything is in the pd sources. :P > On Oct 22, 2019, at 5:15 PM, pd-list-request(a)lists.iem.at wrote: > > That little description on CHANGELOG.txt was not meant to be a introduction to those structures - that was kind of an accident. > Maybe we could have a file giving a brief introduction on how PD works.

Re: [PD] pd/extra objects don't create in help-intro.pd without adding path
by Dan Wilcox 22 Oct '19

22 Oct '19

What OS and Pd version are you using? How did you install Pd? Pd 0.50-2 on my macOS 10.14 system creates all extra objects in the general help patch. As far as I recall, it always has so this sounds like a bug or misconfiguration issue. > On Oct 19, 2019, at 11:15 PM, pd-list-request(a)lists.iem.at wrote: > > I realized that although help-intro.pd (accessible by right clicking a > blank section of canvas and going to Help) lists objects in pd/extra, those > objects wouldn't create until I added the path. > > It that the expected default behavior?

0.50-2 crash on rpi
by iftah gabbai 22 Oct '19

22 Oct '19

hey there, im having some issues with pd 0.50-2 on my rpi running buster, ive loaded an fft based patch that used to work fine on 0.49 and it caused pd to crash and watchdog. in order to check ive tried the phase vocoding example and the same happened, if i remove the window size initialization of the block~ object things works fine (i guess because the patch isnt initng). can anyone with a similar config reproduce? the easiest way would be to try to run the phase vocoding example. best
