Hello all,
I agree with pix that PD tutorials are very difficult to write primarily because the possibilities are rather endless. Predicting the needs of a new user beyond a few basic PD structures is nearly impossible.
I've tried a slightly different approach with the PDDP reference files -- I believe that if a LOT of information is available for each object (with working examples of the object in various contexts) a user can glean the required information and begin to use PD's objects in a meaningful way.
Yes, I am shamelessly advertising the PDDP reference files which are available (always) at http://www.davesabine.com/media/puredata.asp
In each of these object reference files, I've tried to include a subpatch called "more info" which offers tutorials, examples, explanations, discussion...etc.
I hope this helps.
Happy programming, Dave S

Hi to all, I was aking myself: is there on line a real PD tutorial for dummies? I mean, something like: "now, let's play a sound file"... thanks to all
