After 13 years working with Linux i have now to deal with a Mac (for
instance an iMac running 10.4.11 and pd 0.39-extended)
and all seems new....
the basic question then... while i wait for a USB card (btw any
recommendation is very welcome) i was trying making
some test with PD patches but when i connect and use the line-in
built-in in the machine i have troubles getting any recognizable
sound to the dac~. It looks like the problem is with the adc~ since
osc~ to dac~ produce the sound i would expect to hear.
I put to zero the built in microphone (is there any way to mute it
completely??), and played with line in levels but nothing acceptable
is coming out.
Just to clarify, the problem seems related directly with PD, because
other applications that use line in they reproduce the sound at a
decent quality.
Any hint would be greatly appreciated...Sorry for downgrading the
level of the discussion on this list... :-)
Thank you,
ciao,

I think it's in : Applications>Utilities>Audio and Midi config ++

Hmm, are people having trouble finding the audio and midi settings hidden away in "prefernces" on Apples? Maybe I should move it back where it "belongs" under "media", or else include it both places.
(I doubt that's Marco's problem, but I always have trouble finding it myself :)

Is this on an Intel iMac? If so, you may just need to set up an Aggregate device in Audio MIDI Setup. btw no such thing as downgrading the level of discussion:)

Any regular Mac user will look in the Pd->Prefernces for the
preferences, so you'll have people complaining about that. I knew it
always drove me nuts, first I'd go to the normal prefs location, then
remember, "oh yeah, it's in the media menu".
You can't please all the people all the time...

If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into
the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess
himself of it. - Thomas Jefferson
Yeah. Both places, then. I use that menu item more often than any other (not including accelerators) so I don't think it would be too much of a bloater.
