Hello,
With regards to the block limit thread and the following previous discussion [1], I have a question regarding event timing resolution in Puredata.
In the previous email thread, it was noted:
What is also interesting, is that i get the double value of 2.9 msec for blocksizes above 64, for example 65 and above. There are no adc~ or dac~ objects or any subpatches in this setup.
Does this mean that the resolution of a bang is in *multiples* of
1.45msec?
For example:
- If I am attempting to send a message every 8msec (5.51 dsp blocks), will
the event actually be sent, rendered, and perceived to occur every 8msec or will it be rounded up to the next block ( #6 ) at 8.7msec? 2. If an event is scheduled to occur every 1.50msec, will it be scheduled in time every 1.50msec or every 2.90msec?
I've read the pertinent section of Miller's "Theory and Technique of Electronic Music", but I guess this is one small bit I'm still hung up on.
Thanks, ~Brandon
