welcome to the pd world :-)
Thanks!
the helpfiles are in pd/extra (at least here incc my 0.40.0 installation)
I did apt-get on ubuntu and got 0.39. I got another answer for online docs and posted the link on the puredata.info site.
2/- I have attached a patch that I'm sure can be optimised. It's control logic for a loop sampler, and my questions are
maybe you explain a bit more detailed, what you want to do. i have the feeling, that some of pd's priciples are not very clear to you. if i could help you with a specific example, it might be easier to explain for me / understand for you.
Cheers! I read section 2 of the PD docs on the train over the weekend, so I feel I have things a little clearer now. What I am working to achieve is a flexible interface for a loop sampler. I will be using a foot pedal for live performances with PD.
So I want a bunch of buttons that do *multiple actions, depending on the current state of the sampler*. So for example I gave:
I will need a few different states, such as
that will be tied to 1 of a few different parallel samplers (probably around 4).
Thanks for the help and welcome!
