I haven’t tried the nebulae bit it looks cool.

Another option would be the forthcoming OWL modular, which I have been beta testing

https://twitter.com/olilarkin/status/545703673566072832

I have been developing for it using faust and C++ (https://github.com/olilarkin/OL-OWLPatches)

Apparently soon you will also be able to use the heavy compiler to run PD patches on it as previously mentioned on this list

Hey Patrick!

I'm pretty good friends with the guys at QuBit. In fact, they hired me to help them get PD working on the Nebulae! I only wrote some basic tests for it, but people are definitely using it for PD.

pd-vanilla is what it ships with, but with some work it may be possible to include compiled PD objects from pd-extended.

There are definitely custom Csound patches available online. Not sure about any PD ones. They do supply templates for PD patches that work. I was the one who wrote it (though they might have tweaked it a bit since then.)

It's a great sounding module that I highly recommend. Let me know if you have any more questions about it on or off list.

Hi

I am building my first modualr system with a little grant money i got for research. For the first 1000$ i got a beginner Pittsburgh Modular system and one envelope module. FOr the second 1000$ to complete the grant i am considering

http://www.qubitelectronix.com/#!nebulae/c23nm

The nebulae says it will run custom Csound and pd code which i find very intriguing.

The manual says "The module uses a Raspberry Pi as a CPU." So you could get yourself a Raspberry Pi, or even better, UDOO board, run Pd on it and save some money and gain some expertise on the way, and stay independent of a additional commercial hardware provider.

I have a raspi uno which I don't think is fast enough a friend is going to give me a beagle board which has I/o and I hope audio in. Without real time audio in its a deal breaker for me

you might be interested in the axoloti project: http://axoloti.be/

while the board is not exactly in euro form factor it should be possible to include it into a modular setup (i am going to try exactly that as soon as i get a board)

Hi

i have made some advances.

I installed Debian Wheezy onto the Raspi

I programmed the arduino to excpet the potentiometers and all 6 react from 0-1023

They are both responding

I found the same bug where pd -nogui needs about 1/2 second to "boot" before turning on the dsp

I also had to change the WProgram.h to Arduino.h in the Simple Messages System library which works well when placed in Arduino/Libraries.

Now i am looking for a nice pd patch that can granulate sound without the need for a table to be written first. I am looking at Bill Orcutt's Grain2.0 port.? in conjunction with the Arduino2pd patch.

more soon.

if anyone has any suggestions for a fun effects patch please link or attach one!

while the board is not exactly in euro form factor it should be possible to include it into a modular setup (i am going to try exactly that as soon as i get a board)

The board design allows the midi part to be cut off in order to fit vertical mounting in Eurorack. Mounting holes and solder holes are also provided to connect and mount the midi part after separation. For Eurorack connectivity, voltage levels for control voltage in- and output must still be shifted from 0..3.3V to 10V externally and thus will require some DIY work. from https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/axoloti-a-digital-audio-platform-for-make... gr, Tim

Hi list,

I'm interested in experimenting with this kind of devices.

I've a question: how long is the boot time? I mean, from switch on to fully operational.

Thank you

Cheers

The nebulae says it will run custom Csound and pd code which i find very intriguing.

i would LOVE to buid a patch with about 3 simple effects that are not in the traditional analog modular world a sample and hold and a simple RM

Granulation

PV

FFT

S&H

Ring Mod

and be able to toggle through the effects. It says it runs pd-vanilla

Has anyone on the list seen/used or can confrim that the code actually runs properly

I have been searching through the web and Muffwiggler and i have not seen any proof of it running so i am skeptical but still curious

before i lunk down 400+4 i want it to run my patches or at least a detailed how to

please let me know if you have any experience with it.

I think my Model B took closer to a minute to fully boot and start my Pd patch.

The Model 2 seems a little faster, maybe 30 seconds or less, but unfortunately I don't think an almost instant boot time is realistic (I would LOVE to be proven wrong on this). It's definitely one of the more frustrating things, if you want to use the Pi at a gig or something. Then again, it could be a lot worse.

The determining factors will probably be what distro you're using, and how many services have to be started up at the very beginning.

Hi,

I've asked that question to a friend of mine, that uses Raspberry PI, model A (I think...), and he told me that has a boot time of about 34 seconds.

It is different from model to model (i.e. model B, A+)? Or there are some trick (i.e. different OS, or whatelse...) to achieve an almost instant boot time?

Thank you

Boot time for Raspbian varies with sd card class as well, but indeed it is in the order of half a minute even for RPi 2 with class 10 card. Maybe they've used a different OS for Nebulae, or programmed on bare metal?

the boot-time very much depends on the os. raspbian takes at least 30 seconds from power on to login promt. i have just installed arch on an old and rather slow sd card, and it took about 10 seconds until the login prompt. and there is a video on youtube, where an rpi boots in less than 5 secondes into some retro game emu.

Has anyone tried Linux From Scratch for the Raspberry Pi? In that case you could load the bare minimum needed for Pd in -nogui mode, which should give you the minimum system necessary.

does anyone know what sound device is used on the nebulae?

On 20 Apr 2015, at 22:42, Pagano, Patrick pat@digitalworlds.ufl.edu wrote:

I figured that would be what i would need to do run pd with -nogui and arduino stuff that Hans wrote for the potentiometer control a simple toggle on the faceplate that switches between maybe 5 patches that are unavailable in traditional analogia

1.) Phase Locking vocoder 2.) Granular synthesis 3.) FFT of some sort 4.) Sample and Hold, still need a patch that takes in a live osc~ 5.) a waveform patch that loads a simple osc~/phasor for RIngMod/Am/FM etc...

The other issue is that the raspi that i have does NOT have a line in, only a line out for sound i bought a little USB soundblaster card for that to see if i can get audio in to a ADC~

Is the load time any different using the -nogui flag?

Also, how many abstractions are there in your patch?
