Hi All !
I'm new to this list. And I hope it's ok if I post this here.
For the last few months I have been working on a PD external, called the Mootcher. With this external you can easily connect to the freesound website ( http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/ ) from within PD. Search, download and use all the sounds available on the fly! The Freesound Project aims to create a huge collaborative online database of audio snippets, samples, recordings, bleeps, ... released under the Creative Commons Sampling Plus License
please take a look at this page for the external: http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/mootcher.php Since this is my first pd external, please let me know what you think of it. For now, only a windows version is available. However it is made with Flext and we are working on a Linux (PD) and Mac (PD & Max) build. They should be available soon.
For c++ programmers Since the library is Open Source (LGPL), feel free to make your own plugins/programs using the C++ library. Please subscribe to the freesound development mailing list http://iua-mail.upf.es/mailman/listinfo/freesound-dev. And ofcource Let us know if you made something cool.
Thanks for reading. Have fun & Greetings ! Jorn 'Twisted' Lemon
