Hallo, patco hat gesagt: // patco wrote:
[once] from iemabs is the only abstraction required for the moment, I am having right now a look to the last pd-extended version:
Pd-0.39.2-extended-test1-linux-i686
Great, [once] is still there, :D...
You don't need [once] anymore, it can be replaced by:
[r close]

[spigot 1] [t a b] | [0( | [s close]
Since about pd-0.37 [spigot] evaluates its first argument and is open, if you have a non-null arg.
Also the idea of this library came to my mind when testing [list_rythm] from this thread:
http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2006-03/036563.html
Oh, this one is not yet in extra/list-abs.
I'm planning to, but its interface (inlet and outlet behaviour) is still not finished and I'm considering a different name, maybe [list-multicounter] or something like that. As you remarked, it's not only useful for ryhthms.
A bunch of rythmic values is interpreted as a bunch of numbers, so it should be easy to interpret these numbers to a musical notation, with coupling them with a pitch value.
Yes, you can use it as intervals. In fact, list-rhythm is heavily influenced by Godfried Toussaint's work. He sometimes notes the similarities between the rhythmic intervals in african music and the intervals in the pentatonic scale.
