It's working well, now. I think there were also some compatibility issues with the way the objects used to work and the way they work now. I was also getting crashes, but limited the warp factor input to mindwarp~ to be 1/16 to 16. I must have been sending really bad numbers.

I didn't make clean at the end and I should check my path to make sure both folders are included. Other libraries I've noticed use only one folder. Any particular reason to keep them separate?

Hi Sam,

Thanks for the report. I cannot replicate this since I'm not working with deken.

To make sure that everything is cool with the distro, I downloaded from the GIT page:

https://github.com/ericlyon/fftease3.0-32bit

Then recompiled everything from scratch:

eric>make

eric>perl collect.pl

eric>make clean

I can report that FFTease 3.0 works fine on Pd 0.46.7, Mac OS X 10.11.1. The installation process is to move both fftease32-helpfiles and fftease32-externals folders to /Users/yourname/Library/Application Support/Pd/. Then add those folders to the Pd search path. After that, try loading a single FFTease object, either directly, or by opening one of the helpfiles. I tested pvoc~ and mindwarp~ which both worked as expected.

So FFTease should work fine on 32-bit Pd vanilla. My colleague Ico Bukvic has also ported FFTease to pd-l2ork.

I messaged Eric Lyon off-list, just in case he wasn't on list. That's when I also discovered he was hosting fftease on git. We should probably update some documentation at puredata.info to point users there.

Big thanks to Eric for taking time at the start of the semester to answer my email.

I will now summarize the problem I'm having and the steps I've taken to unsuccessfully get fftease working.

I'm on Mac OS 10.9.5. I updated Pd vanilla to 0.46.7 32-bit.

When I load Pd, you will see that zexy and GEM load correctly, but other libraries appear to not load, although I can call their externals in Pd. Here's my log window:

Investigating this, I noted this link https://puredata.info/docs/faq/faqsection_view?section=General that stated that "as of pd 0.43 saving library paths is not supported, the recommended way to include libraries is to use the import object" which seems odd because [import] only works for me in Pd-extended. There's not a lot of information on this subject there.

While I can access externals from these libraries, cyclone, iemlib, hcs, etc., I cannot get the fftease objects to instantiate.

I next deleted my Pd preference files from my user Library and recreated my search paths and Libraries-on-load. Still no change.

Log window:

dentist~ 2048 8 ... couldn't create dentist~ 2048 8 ... couldn't create fftease/dentist~ 2048 8 ... couldn't create ==============

Eric suggested downloading and compiling fftease. So I downloaded the source and followed the instructions to "make" and then perl script that moves all the .pd_darwin files into a folder. I put the external folder and help folder in ~/Library/Pd/, but they still didn't work. The "make" command seemed to work correctly although it did throw "sed: fftease-meta.pd: No such file or directory" a few times when it started and it threw "bthresher~.c:139:48: warning: unused parameter 'msg' [-Wunused-parameter]" for every object.

Now, that I've recompiled and reinstalled the externals, [pvoc~] won't load as I was describing before.

I'm glad fftease is alive and well. The externals are amazing! I just wish I could figure out what is going wrong on my end.
