Re: [PD] gem-users list ?
sorry, late reply, I think a gem list would only make sense for 2 groups of people: #1 people who are *not* interested in gem #2 people who are only on the gem-dev list, and don't want to read any other pd related stuff. (which I think are 2 or three people but maybe some important ones like wes and chris). I sometimes send gem related questions to gem-dev just because I would like to reach one of these two, even if the questions are not developer related. maybe we should move gem-user discussions to gem-dev? I don't know... marius. IOhannes m zmoelnig wrote: Jamie Bullock wrote: Hi, Does anyone (except me) think it would be a good idea to start a Gem-users list? An increasing amount of the discussion on pd-list seems to be Gem-specific. I use, and enjoy Gem, so this isn't any kind of anti-Gem thing, I just think it would be convenient from an email filtering POV if there was a list just for Gem that wasn't a 'dev' list. i could set one up if the community thinks we need such a list. personally i don't think that there is the need for such a list (but of course i would have to read the emails anyhow:-)) i think that it would be enough if people would just add [Gem] to their subjects, so it is immediately clear that this email is related to Gem. mfgasd IOhannes ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Audacity is causing some discontinuities in the audio and the recording has gaps every 5-10 secs. I tried recording with supercollider and i did not get this problem. Could anyone suggest some basic sound recorder that works with jack? I just need to record the jack output, no need for multitrack or editing, just be able to select the sound format, frequency and amplitude maybe. There are some I saw searching with synaptics but I thought maybe someone here has some suggestion. I do all of my recording with the command-line jack_capture utility.

[PD] sending applescript events
Has anyone done any work getting Pd to send applescript events? I know I can use [shell] and osascript, but then I incur the cost of starting a new program. I've been playing around with appscript in Python, but I haven't had much luck getting the Python extension to Pd working, so that's out for now.
