hi
About xsample : i am on osx with Pd-0.38.4-extended-RC6.app i am using xsample, initially i had problems because PD wouldnt initialise it properly, then i included a xsample object and the xgroove and xrecord were ok. But i noticed that when i changed the location of the file in my hardrive PD was again unable to initialise xsample object properly again.
At least this is what i think it is happening. Or does it sound like i am having visions? I get this when i open the patch :
xsample objects, version 0.3.1
xrecord~, xplay~, xgroove~ (C)2001-2005 Thomas Grill
xsample ... couldn't create
i was wondering if anyone could point into some solution to solve this.
About pyExt : I was wondering if for windows machines there is some way to include in the patch python.dll or somerthing like that so that they do not have to install python on their machines, which i guess it is needed to run pyExt external. I say i guess because i havent been able to test it yet, waiting to get a x386 machine to test stuff like this properly ...
thanks!

Hi,

since you have to load xsample as a library, including a xsample object can't have any effect - i guess your findings that it has some effect is pure coincidence. It's also ok if it can't be created since xsample is not a defined object, it's just the library name. Maybe things have worked different for you before, because you were using an older xsample version?

yes, although i haven't tried either, this should work ok... just drop python.dll in the same folder as the external, or into pd/bin .
