Hi all, as i'm planning to develop a larger performance system on the basis of pd i have a few questions which are not obvious to me.
- is there a way to switch off dsp computing in a subpatcher only, and how?
(i think i should know that)
- i remember a discussion thread about max-like poly (or even better -
poly~) objects a while ago... has there been any external code written in an attempt to realize that?
- is it guaranteed (or at least intended - and under which circumstances)
that - contrary to Max/MSP - opening a new patcher and adding objects to the signal tree doesn't result in an overall crackle? At least in my experiments i could open fairly complex and cpu-intense patches in PD without audio interruption.
- i think to recall vaguely that there has been a project featuring a
tcl/tk-less pd patcher system (i think with GTK). If this is true, does that still reside somewhere?
- concerning the -nogui mode and (graphical) objects in loaded patchers -
are the tcl/tk commands still generated (and simply not sent over the socket) or is this gui stuff omitted on a lower level (in order not to waste cpu)?
- have there been any attempts or progress in terms of runtime-configurable
audio settings (driver model, device id, sample rate, buffer sizes)?
- has anyone tried to compile PD with CodeWarrior?
thank you for any pointers, best greetings,
Thomas
