is there any contraindication to use separate instances of puredata: one for audio file playback and the other for control/communication ?
There is no contraindication to do so and in fact many of my performance patches are two instances of Pd, one doing DSP the other one doing GUI and both communicating via Netsend/receive.
just out of curiosity:
would that be the same as using a [pd~] (to do the DSP stuff) in an otherwise GUI-focused "master-instance" ?
or is there a difference in "performance" power when using 2 discrete PD instances instead?
