In real time? Can that be done?

We're having a neat discussion about this in the Pure Data forum now: http://puredata.hurleur.com/sujet-1686-fiddle-piano
jon2211 came up with a neat patch that demonstrates how well fiddle~ recognizes notes played on a piano within a given range, triggering a
key
text output. Another poster showed an example of modifying that to
trigger
with envelope/volume changes. Of course, we're still stuck with how to
port
the key stroke messages to an external application.
Would someone be willing to write up a python script that can intercept
Pure
Data text echoes and forward them to other concurrently running applications, like PowerPoint or Word? This is the missing link in the puzzle - heck, i'd even be willing to pay someone if they could come up
with
a useful workaround!
Keeping my fingers crossed... Many thanks as always!

Python might bring you the right solution:
http://www.rutherfurd.net/python/sendkeys/
You can either send your letters/keystrokes from inside pd using the
pyext
external that loads your python script
or send messages via OSC to a python script that implements the ixi software simpleOSC lib
http://www.ixi-software.net/content/backyard.html
++ O.
Here's one scenario i'd like to see:
- Pedal assigned [PgDn] keystroke within Liquid Media, which
triggers
scene change 2. PD outputs letters A-Z, depending on either volume or pitch
frequency
ranges input from audio source (microphone into acoustic piano) 3. A given scene within Liquid Media would then interpret the
PD-generated
keystrokes and trigger image events based on letter key "depressed"
by
PD.
You'd have the ease of image generation (a la Powerpoint) with the
speed
and
power of PD to map the sound of acoustic music. Just my newbie
imagination
going here.

The pedals basically operate as programmable usb keyboard
extensions,
where you can custom assign any keystroke to any pedal (up to 12).
I'm
hoping that by assigning a certain set of keys to the pedals and
reserving
the rest for PD to control that everything can simply work
together,
if PD
can output keyboard letters/numbers. Everything would run from
the
same
computer. Again, please forgive me if i sound completely ignorant
regarding
what's possible with PD... Many thanks again!

The [fiddle~] and [bonk~] objects should let you capture all of
the
information that you are looking for. As far as getting that information from Pd to Liquid Media, that may be the tricky
part.
Your
current pedals are sending keystrokes straight to Liquid Media.
Do
you
know if there is a way to control Liquid Media via MIDI
messages, or
some sort of message sent via a socket connection (maybe OSC)?
If
so,
then you might be able to use Pd to capture your pedal input and
then
combine that with the information from [fiddle~] and/or [bonk~]
to
send the appropriate information to Liquid Media. If the only
way to
control Liquid Media is through keystrokes, then you might need
to
write some software that intercepts the keystrokes from the
pedals
and
changes them depending on what is going on in Pd.
