so far i compiled nicolas danets “spaghettis” pd fork
(https://github.com/Spaghettis/Spaghettis), but i guess its now time to try and
compile pd myself.
unless some kind and more knowledgable soul provides a binary for mac, hint,
hint :-)
If you managed to compile "spaghettis" from source, than compiling Pd
should be no big deal. Did you give it a try? The INSTALL.txt contains
the necessary info.

thanks, christof,
that makes sense.
a more general question: is that the plan for a transisiton period or will it
stay that way for the foreseeable future?
apart from the obvious profits for the playback of longer soundfiles and the
ones specified in katjas research some time ago
(http://www.katjaas.nl/doubleprecision/doubleprecision.html),
i use double for simple math tasks involving really big numbers.

Hi Hans,
it means that Pd can be compiled -DPD_FLOATSIZE=64, so it will use 64-bit
doubles instead of 32-bit floats everywhere, and all built-in objects should
still work as expected.
This has advantages (better precision/stability for certain filters, large
precise table indicies, etc.) and possible disadvantages (needs more memory,
some code paths might be a bit slower).
Currently, we only ship the good old single precision builds, but people can
compile double precision builds from source for themselves to experiment with.

excited about that release, thanks to all involved!
* maybe mention that Pd is now double precision ready?
what does that exactly mean? is it in, but not enabled or is it a subset?
( certainly its not a marketing scam as these tv sets labeled “HD ready” :-)
thanks for clarification,
hans
