When I was preparing for my show a couple of months ago I used to let my PD patches run for days without quitting PD. This way i knew there would be no surprises in a nearly 2 hours show. Indeed, it's a great feeling when you know you can rely on your software.
./MiS
In the whole development process, PD didn't crash either itself or my system a single time. I found it completely reliable to use
and was
fully confident with the environment when shunting sounds all over the place in real time during the concert
Well, I hope that it is reliable, because I am using pd with two hammerfall cards on a dual processor system, on the "worlds biggest permanent open air sound installation" (Austrian Brodacast Company wording .:)
It is permanent, which means current uptime is one week and some days ..

as there seems to be some need of telling ourselfs that it is really working what we are doing :-) i have to add that also GEM really works in live context. i was using gem to represent a data stream which was generated by 64 hearts in realtime. in the 8 performances we did (and uncountable hours of building and rehersal) gem never let me down. http://www.sophisticatedsoiree.com
cheers to the coders !
