So then, how is it possible to have a separate process, in a separate core,
with an independent clock?
- Use separate computers? - Just open another actual Pd and send messages
to it via net objects?
Hello Alex,
Yes the easiest way is to have two different instances of pd running and to communicate (some) data values using netsend / netreceive on localhost. Depending of what you do (is there some Gem?), it is usually said it helps to have the audio process in one pd and the other only doing the computing and displaying in Gem. Having two instances of pd is trivial under linux (just start another pd in the terminal), in osx i only know one way: you have to duplicate the whole Pd app and rename it,
OSX has a terminal, doesn't it? Can't you just start one pd followed by &, then another?
in windows i don't know.
In Windows it's also trivial-- just open another instance of Pd from the start menu, command line, .bat file, or whatever.
good luck n -- http://nim.on.free.fr
