Hi list,
Would it be possible to add a flag to [pd~] to keep the parent instance
from blocking?
It'd be like starting another Pd instance manually and using
netsend/netreceive to communicate between them, except modular and portable.
Gem + audio comes to mind. But also offloading heavy (and often
inefficient) work into the other process. For example, if you know that
generating some pitch data takes an average of ten seconds, but you've
got a minute before the section of the piece where you need the data.
