Hi All,
Is there a way of using PD as a plugin for a host sequencer such as Cubase/Logic?
check: http://barely.a.live.fm/pd/MP3-PD-MP3-mutilation.howto.txt
for ideas.
Oh, I just realized you must be on M$ OS so I'm not sure if it works that way...
If i wanted to use the sequencing aspects of such an app but i wanted to use pd for synthesis how would i go about it? I could run them both as seperate processes and use midi to control , but what if i want to route the audio from pd directly into the app like an virtual instrument?
same ideas as above, although you will probably run into some serious latency issues.
Could i run multiple pd instances and use them as multiple instruments? I think you can do something like this with max/msp?
I don't think you can do that with Max/MSP. You can, however, use Pluggo, which is a VST "plugin" that reads Max/MSP patches.
<rainy day humor> Now, I would like to have the other way around: Having a PD object that will allow me to run my favorite sequencer/multitrack _inside_ a PD patch. Hmm... that'd be something!
And then people ould be writing to the Max list saying "Can I run ProTools inside Max/MSP? I think you can do this with PD". </rainy day humor>
Cheers.
