'Find externals' under Wine
by Roman Haefeli 01 May '19

01 May '19

Hey all When running either 32bit or 64bit Windows build of Pd under Wine on Linux (amd64), I cannot install packages through 'Find externals'. Either nothing is downloaded or - more likely - a .dek file is downloaded, but immediately deleted without extracting it first. Though the GUI indicates success (progressbar wandering to the right), no traces are left afterwards. How can I investigate this some more? Are others having success with such a setup? Roman

vanilla replacement for mrpeach/routeOSC
by Philip Stone 01 May '19

01 May '19

I had some spare time to go back to my old Pd synthesizers and thought I’d try to see if recent developments in vanilla Pd could help me remove some of my external dependencies. [oscparse] works great when taking FUDI in from [netreceive], and converting the multi-level OSC message into a list of separate symbols. However, it’s no help when dealing with OSC messages not originating from the network – i.e., ones passed around internally. I use internal OSC messages a great deal in my synthesizers, and need an efficient way to route them. I can imagine a fairly arcane method: use [list fromsymbol] -> [convert ‘/’ to space] -> [list tosymbol] -> [route]. I fear, however, that this will be much less efficient than [routeOSC], especially the list-drippy [convert ‘/’ to space] part. Are there any (vanilla) alternatives to this? Phil Stone UC Davis

Apologies if this is too far off topic but I bet some Pd-er in Scottsdale will want to know about this... On Mon, Apr 22, 2019 at 09:41:50PM +0000, Jesse Pfeister wrote: > Hello.

They're looking for a BA/BS level DSP programmer at the moment. cheers Miller

get keyboard events without repeats (in 2019)
by Peter P. 30 Apr '19

30 Apr '19

Hi list, chiming in to the discussion of possible improvements regarding mice and now also keyboards, I am wondering if there could be a way within Pd to get keyboard events without having the operating systems (all three of them) repeat key down/up events in rapid succession. I know that I can tell the operating systems to disable it but would absolutely prefer Pd's keyboard objects to get these without repeats. Happy to hear any feedback on that! P

It depends more on the hardware and any special drivers that might be required to use it with your OS. Pd only talk to the sound devices that are given to it by the OS. We have used Pd with RME MADI interfaces at work which address 64 or 128 channels. Note, that you get the "raw" channels directly. Surround or ambisonic mixing is up to you. -------- Dan Wilcox @danomatika <http://twitter.com/danomatika> danomatika.com <http://danomatika.com/> robotcowboy.com <http://robotcowboy.com/>

I just still need to figure out how to create a properties window. more about the updates here: https://github.com/porres/pd-else/releases/tag/v1.0-beta19 and here https://github.com/porres/Live-Electronic-Music-Tutorial/releases/tag/v1.0-… binaries are still coming up and showing up in deken cheers _______________________________________________ Pd-announce mailing list Pd-announce(a)lists.iem.at https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce

Surround sound systems?
by Pall Thayer 26 Apr '19

26 Apr '19

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has experience with Pd and surround sound systems. Yesterday, I got a glimpse of a new facility at my workplace that has a really sweet 7.1 surround sound system. I'm wondering, if I simply connect my laptop to it via an HDMI cable and set Pd to use HDMI for audio output, will I automatically have the ability to send specific channels of audio to any one of the 7 speakers? Or would it require additional hardware or software? If so, what? Thanks, Pall Thayer -- ***************************** Pall Thayer artist http://pallthayer.dyndns.org *****************************

syncjams with no connection
by enrike 24 Apr '19

24 Apr '19

hi Couple of issues about syncjams library. I am using it in a place with no wifi connection and I noticed - The argument BPM does not have any effect syncjams $0/syncer, bpm 60, namespace syncjams, port 23232 - I would expect that a set-state message would actually work locally even if there is no internet connection (I notice there is a connect 127.0.0.1 inside the syncjams object) . So issuing a set-state /test 10 message to my instance of syncjams would actually be output by the state, a kind of internal loop. but it does not is this the intended behaviour? thanks! enrike

[PD-announce] CfP: ICAD 2019 Algorave!
by Paul Vickers 23 Apr '19

23 Apr '19

ICAD 2019 — Call for Submissions to the ICAD 2019 Algorave. 25th International Conference on Auditory Display Northumbria University, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK 23–27 June, 2019 https://icad2019.icad.org https://twitter.com/ICAD2019 Theme/Special Focus of ICAD 2019 is "Digital Living: Sonification for Everyday Life". Digital technology and artificial intelligence are becoming embedded in the objects all around us, from consumer products to the built environment. Everyday life happens where People, Technology, and Place intersect. Our activities and movements are increasingly sensed, digitised and tracked. Of course, the data generated by modern life is a hugely important resource not just for companies who use it for commercial purposes, but it can also be harnessed for the benefit of the individuals it concerns. Sonification research that has hit the news headlines in recent times has often been related to big science done at large publicly funded labs with little impact on the day-to-day lives of people. At ICAD 2019 we want to explore how auditory display technologies and techniques may be used to enhance our everyday lives. From giving people access to what’s going on inside their own bodies, to the human concerns of living in a modern networked and technological city, the range of opportunities for auditory display is wide. ALGORAVE For the first time at an ICAD meeting the conference programme includes an Algorave event. "Algoraves focus on humans making and dancing to music. Algorave musicians don’t pretend their software is being creative, they take responsibility for the music they make, shaping it using whatever means they have. More importantly the focus is not on what the musician is doing, but on the music, and people dancing to it. Algoraves embrace the alien sounds of raves from the past, and introduce alien, futuristic rhythms and beats made through strange, algorithm-aided processes. It’s up to the good people on the dancefloor to help the musicians make sense of this and do the real creative work in making a great party.” (https://algorave.com/about). The ICAD 2019 committee seeks submissions to this event which will provide an exciting complement to the other conference categories. For details on proposal format, submission instructions, and additional conference information please visit https://icad2019.icad.org/call-for-participation. IMPORTANT DATES: Thursday 12th May 2019 — Deadline for submissions to the Algorave tracks. Algorave Chair: Shelly Knotts icad2019algorave(a)icad.org Conference Chairs: Paul Vickers and Matti Gröhn icad2019chairs(a)icad.org ABOUT ICAD First held in 1992, ICAD is a highly interdisciplinary conference with relevance to researchers, practitioners, artists, and graduate students working with sound to convey and explore information. The conference is unique in its specific focus on auditory displays and the range of interdisciplinary issues related to their use. Like its predecessors, ICAD 2019 will be a single-track conference, open to all, with no membership or affiliation requirements. -- Dr Paul Vickers BSc PhD CEng MIEE FHEA Co-chair of ICAD 2019: https://icad2019.icad.org This message is intended solely for the addressee and may contain confidential and/or legally privileged information.
