Hi,
Zitat von Olaf Matthes olaf.matthes@gmx.de:
But, yes, of course, we need example patches showing how to use the objects. And, me culpa, I sometimes do use Pd's example patches as a starting point for my own stuff.]
But we all do! IMO Pd's example patches are a wonderful introduction to Pd and sound synthesis in general. I remember, though, that some of them were over my head when I started using Pd (some still are) but I can come back to them and still learn something new. Also people should really read the html-docs. But it's a known fact: Users don't read documentation. And developers don't write it. :)
What I think works best for most people are the working patches that are also tutorials. The Pure Data Documentation Project are great examples of this. But some more developed tutorials would be very helpful as well. There are some out there, I just got to get them organized in the new pure-data.org...
