PixelTango builds on top of Gem, so there is no realy difference here.
(i don't think that PixelTango comes with an abstraction for Gem that
does right out-of-the-box what you need)

not necessarily.
if you have plenty of cpu left, you could go for Gem's [pix_dump], which
dumps the entire image as a list into "pd-space". then you can do
whatever you want with it (e.g. use iemmatrix to calculate what you need).

another solution with Gem might be to use [pix_resize] with a width of 1
and then [pix_dump] the image "column".

other libs:
i am sure there are some simple resizing mechanisms in GridFlow. if you
need to do more complicated stuff on the data, GridFlow might be a good
choice anyhow, since you could stay in grid-space rather long and only
do the conversion into pd-space at the very end.

pdp/pidip:
i don't know, but i am sure there are solutions here too.

so it really depends on what else you want to acchieve.
if it has to run on w32, then the solutions are limited.
(but i don't know)

Anyways, what I want is for all subdirectories in the extra-

they were an integrated part of the installation. I've tried to use  
(add) the pd-settings.reg that comes with the pd-extended  
installation, but it has not had the desired effect.


Could someone please shed some light on this problem for me?

[PD] Help - filters & band limited oscillators!

2007-03-14 Thread David Powers
Hello everyone,

I tried google and it was no help, and the server for the list archive
seems to be down temporarily.

Anyway, I'm giving a free (as in free beer) workshop in Chicago in
about 16 hours, on the basics of digital synthesis. I have decided to
use Pure Data to give my presentation, and use mostly non-commercial
software.

However, I'm still missing the following for demonstrating "proper"
subtractive synthesis:
1. Good, out of the box "analog-sounding" filters. I'm using [moog~]
right now, but I'm not all that satisfied with the sound compared to
the filters in my favorite VST's ...
2. Band-limited square and sawtooth waveforms.

For teaching purposes PD is great, and ideal for my demonstrations.
But as it is, I'm having to use VST's within PD in order to
demonstrate a "nice sounding" synth. It would be nice to show that PD
can do it without using stuff built in Steinberg's format. That would
also let the Mac people replicate my work, if they are interested.
Note, nobody in the workshop has ever tried Linux, except me, so Linux
plugins are not helpful in this case.

I will post my patches after I give the workshop, though they are
nothing fancy ... just basic:
sequencer - oscillator - vca - filter. Good for demoing though, I'm
starting with additive first, then subtractive.

Re: [PD] Help - filters & band limited oscillators!

2007-03-14 Thread David Powers
I found those, but are they really band-limited? I'm fairly sure I
hear ugly digital artifacts in the saw. The square appears to be
broken, unless I made a mistake cutting and pasting those 1500 lines
of code into my text editor (kinda hard to tell).

It's 5 30 am here and I've not slept yet :-(

I can't believe there's STILL no readily available
external/abstraction for such a common synthesis task, I just want a
"nice sounding" example that will compare with the VST's which I will
be hosting from within PD; right now "ASynth" sounds about 100x better
than anything made in PD itself ...

Oh and I don't see any "J" example PD patches, my PD patches don't go
that high.

I know next to nothing about win32.

But i think the basic reason why they don't all work out of the box  
in Pd-extended, is that some are not loaded to avoid name clashing.

One way to go about it is to add them to the startup prefs, but  
bearing in mind, that there might be name clashing. Another is to use  
[import ], this require of cause the import object which is not  
in vanilla Pd . A third is to call objects as [/]  
fx. [cyclone/pow~ ]. I tend to prefer the later, as is reflect from  
where the object comes and as such also helps my organize my code.

Are you thinking about Labsalonen? I was there the first time, having  
the opportunity to have a closer look at the abiunix system (that  
uses devel 0.37), but apart from that there wasn't much Pd action.  
Other then that Lab is, to my experience, fairly closed for day to  
day use.

Attached is a bandlimited square, which was bandlimited using the
upsample, then filter approach described in The Book. 

Another approach would be additive synthesis, as illustrated here:
http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2006-05/038681.html
(There are two patches in that mail!)

Finally there are various externals, like blosc~ from creb.

For filters I would recommend using the IEM-filters as building
blocks.

Re: [PD] adding external-direcetories to paths

2007-03-14 Thread Thomas Jeppesen
Thanks again Steffen, I think everything is a bit easier to grasp now, all 
though I'm having trouble making the ':'-trick work as expected. I've tried 
seperating paths with ';' instead, but when I load PD the next time each 
path has been assigned it's on path-line in the preferences. Maybe assigning 
a path in the object itself, as you propose, is my solution too.

Yes I was thinking about Labsalonen at LAB, at least it could become a place 
where people who are into PD can meet once a month, since whats going on at 
Labsalonen is what people themseles wants to do. But if there's enough 
interest for a dedicated PD-patching-group in Copenhagen I'm sure something 
can be arranged. Unfortunately I havn't got the time to arrange or manage 
such a group, but I could be the contact who can open the doors at LAB and 
make the room available from time to time.

Cheers!
Thomas

[PD] Fw: adding external-direcetories to paths

2007-03-14 Thread Thomas Jeppesen
Hi Luigi,

I'm on Windows for now. Steffen has been kind enough to to guide me in the 
right direction, but I'm not quite there yet, so any additional input you might 
have on the matter would be a much appreciated.

Cheers!
Thomas

After a few weeks of wondering how this works, I've more or less figured

even though the externals are in the "extra"-directory. OK then, I think to 
myself, I have to add each subdirectory of externals to the path in PD's 
fererences. This seemed to have the desired effect. And now to the problem, 
only 10 lines of paths are possible in PD. Or does it work like this, that I 
can only ´see´ 10 line's of added paths? Or have I completely missed how this 
aspect of PD works?

Anyways, what I want is for all subdirectories in the extra-directory in my 
PD 39.2-extended to be accessable from PD, as if they were an integrated part 
of the installation. I've tried to use (add) the pd-settings.reg that comes 
with the pd-extended installation, but it has not had the desired effect.

Could someone please shed some light on this problem for me?

Cheers!

Re: [PD] Processing Video Data

Hi List!

Thanks for your suggest!
I'm working on win32 and I suposse I need a lot of CPU if I'm going to work
with video lines data.
[pix resize] combined with [pix_dump] could be a good solution (thanks
Iohannes)...If I understand right that scheme gives me a list with video
line data which is what I want.
I will take a look to GridFlow and pdp/pidipi (they only work on Linux?).

I'll give you news soon.

[PD] pdp 0.12.5-darcs on Linux

2007-03-14 Thread Jamie Bullock
Hi,

I am trying to get pdp working on my Linux box: Ubuntu 6.10
(2.6.17-10-generic, X11 7.1.). I am using the fglrx video driver with
direct rendering enabled. So...

How do I get pdp to render to the screen?

[pdp_xv] loads correctly but sending it a |create( message gives:

pdp_xv: cant open display :0

[pdp_sdl] and [pdp_glx] both cannot be instantiated: '...couldn't
create', despite the fact that I compiled with --enable-sdl and
--enable-glx.

Anyone know what I need to do to get this working?


Thanks,

Jamie

Re: [PD] Help - filters & band limited oscillators!

2007-03-14 Thread Roman Haefeli
hello again

i improved guenter's bandlimited square a bit. i noticed that it is
hardcoded to 48kHz and accidently i was running pd at 48kHz, that's why
it sounded quite good here. however, how far i can see it, the part,
that selects the appropriate table, is not working as it should. i
couldn't completely follow, how it works, but it seems to switch only
correct from tab1 to tab2. for other tabs it switches at too high
frequencies, which might introduce a bit aliasing. 
in my version the tables are generated on loadbang, which makes the file
much smaller and easier to adapt for other waveforms. the tabselector is
now dependent on the sampling rate, so it should sound well at different
rates now.  in order to provide the full spectrum even in low
frequencies, i added a raw square generator. below a certain frequency,
the oscillator switches to the raw square version, so that it should
sound good at arbitrary low frequencies. the number of tables generated
on loadbang can be changed. a bigger value lowers the frequency, at
which the oscillator switches to the raw version and vice versa.

i hope you'll have fun with it.

[PD] GOP and menu displacements [was: oldschool rave synths]

2007-03-14 Thread Frank Barknecht
Hallo,

Andy and me had a little off-list discussion, but this below may be
interesting to others as well.

padawan12 hat gesagt: // padawan12 wrote:

> A problem often comes when you activate GOP on a patch - to be honest

Actually as default Pd always puts the red rectangle to the same
position at coordinates x=100, y=100. The origin of this coordiante
system (x=0, y=0) is in the upper left corner of a patch normally, the
positive x-direction is to the right, the pos. y-direction is down(!)
from there. 

However if you move objects into the area with "negative" coordinates
left or above the patch's borders, Pd will still show them, but it
will move the origin (0, 0) to somewhere in the middle of the patch.
The red GOP rectange still is at (100, 100), but now it may seem to be
at a different position, because the origin (0, 0) doesn't match the
window-borders anymore. 

I suppose that Pd will try to create the Properties menu at a position
indicated by the object's coordinates, but it will reference a
different origin, that's why the menu seems is displaced.

Well, all this is very confusing, that's not moving stuff to the
negative area is quite important.

Ciao

[PD] forcing focus to and minimizing the GEM window

2007-03-14 Thread Matteo Sisti Sette
ver you want with it (e.g. use iemmatrix to calculate what you need).

another solution with Gem might be to use [pix_resize] with a width of 1
and then [pix_dump] the image "column".

other libs:
i am sure there are some simple resizing mechanisms in GridFlow. if you
need to do more complicated stuff on the data, GridFlow might be a good
choice anyhow, since you could stay in grid-space rather long and only
do the conversion into pd-space at the very end.

pdp/pidip:
i don't know, but i am sure there are solutions here too.

so it really depends on what else you want to acchieve.
if it has to run on w32, then the solutions are limited.
(but i don't know)

Hello everyone,

I tried google and it was no help, and the server for the list archive
seems to be down temporarily.

Anyway, I'm giving a free (as in free beer) workshop in Chicago in
about 16 hours, on the basics of digital synthesis. I have decided to
use Pure Data to give my presentation, and use mostly non-commercial
software.

However, I'm still missing the following for demonstrating "proper"
subtractive synthesis:
1. Good, out of the box "analog-sounding" filters. I'm using [moog~]
right now, but I'm not all that satisfied with the sound compared to
the filters in my favorite VST's ...
2. Band-limited square and sawtooth waveforms.

For teaching purposes PD is great, and ideal for my demonstrations.
But as it is, I'm having to use VST's within PD in order to
demonstrate a "nice sounding" synth. It would be nice to show that PD
can do it without using stuff built in Steinberg's format. That would
also let the Mac people replicate my work, if they are interested.
Note, nobody in the workshop has ever tried Linux, except me, so Linux
plugins are not helpful in this case.

I will post my patches after I give the workshop, though they are
nothing fancy ... just basic:
sequencer - oscillator - vca - filter. Good for demoing though, I'm
starting with additive first, then subtractive.

~David

Subject:[PD] pdp 0.12.5-darcs on Linux

Hi,

I am trying to get pdp working on my Linux box: Ubuntu 6.10
(2.6.17-10-generic, X11 7.1.). I am using the fglrx video driver with
direct rendering enabled. So...

How do I get pdp to render to the screen?

[pdp_xv] loads correctly but sending it a |create( message gives:

pdp_xv: cant open display :0

[pdp_sdl] and [pdp_glx] both cannot be instantiated: '...couldn't
create', despite the fact that I compiled with --enable-sdl and
--enable-glx.

Anyone know what I need to do to get this working?


Thanks,

Jamie

Re: [PD] external viewers for additional file types ?

2007-03-14 Thread Pete Redest
Yes, adding some minimal sanity checking of the files to be opened
will make the browser more solid, and for all we know, checking
the "magic" prefixes of files is a snap. BTW, for kicks I tried to open
a .wav file (there are a couple in the examles somewhere) knowning
the problem  guess what happened :-)... fixing this can be a
good thing. I volunteer, but please read on.

About the general position about expanding/not-expanding viewing
capabilities I guess it is a matter of perception by the user of
whether an implementation is "complete".

As an example of what I mean about "complete", when an entity
that is named "browser" presents a list of items, it seems
reasonable to expect that it will be able to "handle" the listed
items in a manner consistent with their type. I dare to submit
that this is kind of software engineering common wisdom. If
it can not handle something, don't list it.

But eliminating things from the list because it can not handle
them, renders the browser incomplete: it is not listing
everything it sees, even though it is still displaying subdirs of
the help dir. To me this does not seem right.

Furthermore, I tried to find any justification for having support
(i.e. launch a viewer for) e.g. .html files and not for pdf files.
HTML is a standard markup format for which there are plenty
of free and legal viewers.
PDF is a standard markup format for which there are plenty
of free and legal viewers.
Folks publish documents for PD in HTML format. e.g. many.
Folks publish documents for PD in PDF format, e.g. IOhannes.

Now (STARTING OF THE ROLLING DRUMS prr)
THE DIFFERENCES ARE!!: .. fill the blanks with what you
believe the differences are  I am sure that you will find a hard
time to exclude one or the other, and HTML support is already
in.

An the obvioius question is *why* to exclude, rather than include,
approaching completeness, rather than perpetuating incompleteness.
The documents and other files (e.g. the Gem demo movie) are
utterly useful as help tools: why would we force new users to
open 10 applications to navigate separately to each of these
docs or files when it is perfectly possible, and easy, to support
a decent number of them. And in fact, it is even easier to launch
a standard script that the user can modify to add whatever crap
she wants.

There is very little to code here, and doing it "open ended"
make it very easy to port to various platforms. Very flexible.

Yet, as you say, and I agree, there is no real "necessity" to
add this. It is just cheap convenience and completeness.
PD can live without it, as it did so far.

Look forward to hear your thoughts.

-P

Re: [PD] Help - filters & band limited oscillators!

2007-03-14 Thread David Powers
Hi Roman, I get the following error from your patch, for many of the tables:
error: 1002-square33: number of points (512) not a power of 2 plus three

Along with this error, it seems to stop playing somewhere above 360 Hz...

Thanks for your help, I'm sorry to sound grumpy, it's just that in
searching the archives mostly all I found was my old query for a year
ago. Plus everyone says to use [blosc~] but I posted in my first post,
that [blosc~] is broken, and I believe that it's known, ie here is
says:
http://blog.soundsorange.net/index.php/archives/2006/09/28/exploring-pd-extended/
"exploring pd extended
27/9/2006
CPU load rating
blosc~ - intriguing band limited oscillators, but patch is self
referential and not working"

Again, a reminder that this isn't really for me, but rather, it's the
list members chance to sell other people on PD being useful, or not,
to the outside world. [vst~] is working great so I can demonstrate
subtractive synthesis with VST's within pure data, but that's
suggesting to people that PD isn't really good for  traditional
synthesis... So if you think PD is good for synthesis, let me know
about it!!!

***Note: I personally don't use PD with Gem for VJing, and to make
weird generative MIDI sequences, mostly... I never really considered
synthesis a strong point for PD, for reasons that should now be
obvious.

Did anyone try sqosc~ yet? I'm interested to get feedback on that one.

Re: [PD] Help - filters & band limited oscillators!

2007-03-14 Thread David Powers
Workshop went well. I used VST's though, except for additive and wavetable ...

But ... how hard is it to compile for winxp? I will try tomorrow if
it's possible... I've got visual C++, and cygwin...
