Here's what I'm trying to do:

On a Raspberry Pi 3, I want to run an audio patch that generates LFOs and also have a Gem window that shows [scopeXYZ]. There are tremendous dropouts unless [scopeXYZ] has a very short length of samples to process.

Here's one problem I've run into:

I'm prototyping on Windows 10. I decided to try running the Gem component in a subprocess [pd~]. The [pd~] object doesn't seem to accept the "-nogui" tag. How do I use it? Will it also hide the terminal window that launches the second copy of Pd?

Is this an effective method of separating Gem from audio on a Raspberry Pi? Is there a better way?

Hi. I find it difficult to search for discussions related to pd~ because Google uses ~ for synonym searches.  Any tips for searching for [pd~] on the web and the mailing list?

Thanks!
