Hello list,
I've collected and cleaned up a few patches that I've been using a lot while making game audio with PD (mainly for Android, using libpd, Unity and Kalimba) and wanted to make them available to everyone. Giving a tiny bit back since I've received so much help and advice from the PD community!
I'm mainly trying to cover what a PD beginner/game audio composer would need in order to start building a PD-based audio engine for a video game. Threw in some mixer abstractions, some stuff for interactive music, a state-based drum machine and so on.
As I said it's super basic, but it might just be less intimidating for someone who's just interested in the game audio potential of PD to have these basic blocks handy.
Let me know if there is anything that can/should/must be improved in order for it to be of any use! I'd like to make help patches for the abstraction as well, but am not sure if they really need them since most of them are very simple. What do you think?

Nice one Filippo! Thanks for sharing
Cheers, Joe

my 2ct:
I personally think help patches are always useful, no matter how simple the abstraction is. the help patches also can serve as a testbed to make sure the abstraction is doing what it is supposed to.
including [pd meta] information would be next on your list, so your abstractions can be indexed by the search plugin.
also putting them on github may help lover the bar for contributions.

Hi Max,
thanks for your feedback, that's exactly what I need to know and don't yet! :) I'll make help patches for all of the abstractions. As far as I know, it suffices to name the patch "name-help.pd", and put it in the same folder, right?
Also, where can I edit the metadata and what can you edit in there exactly?
Thanks again for your reply,
Filippo

That's right!

I don't think there is a web resource explaining the format, but there is this excellent patch you may look at: all_about_help_patches.pd which on my computer is to be found at /usr/lib/pd-extended/doc/5.reference/ there is the standard anatomy of a help patch demonstrated including the [pd META] subpatch containing the meta data.

Hi Max,
found the help patch with the meta information it and will be studying it tonight :)
Thanks,
Filippo
