 Congrats on finishing it Johannes.
 This looks very nice. Some people ask if my book 
 focuses on sound design, and Millers book focuses on
 DSP theory, why is there not a book dedicated to
 composition in Pd? Well now there is. 

Hm, you all are so fast readers, reading a book in less than one evening. :)

By quickly scanning through the book and grep'ing the patches, I wonder, why
not a single patch uses the [list] object which - not only because of the
[list]-abs - is one of my most often used objects especially for composition? I
would expect a section on list-processing when teaching people how to compose.

Anyway, I haven't read it yet, maybe these topics are presented without [list].

could you explain the polyphony example?

doesn't each voice have the same parameter, coming from the gui?

in my experience it's best to save the state right at the interface,
i don't see the point of saving state deep in the core.

same with the new-fast list-drip in u_listdrip.. is it just for

Hallo,

yeah sorry frank, i should have explained more clearly.

i also think that no GUI is the way to go for functional abstractions.  that
was the big flaw of the DIY library i did, that the function of the
abstractions was tied in with the gui component.  i did it that way because
i didn't want to clutter the namespace with too many abstractions, and the
thought of one abstraction for function, and then a different one for GUI
was not appealing at the time.

but now, i think that is the only way to go.  like, as you said, for
polyphony.  and then also for the many many cases in which you'd want to
build your own gui for custom control.


Yeah, basically that was all I wanted to say as well. ;)
 

i do think you guys have got a really really strong system there with
rjlib.  but i was just saying that without the gui stuff, it doesn't exactly
fit into being that 'all purpose building blocks' library that we are
discussing.


Yes, that's true. rjlib has its focus on audio and control abstractions to be
used on mobile devices with vanilla Pd. Some of this fits into a all purpose
library, but a lot of it doesn't.

Congratulations Johannes,

This book will definitely be a bonus teaching material together with  
Miller's book for the computer generated music course that I am  
planning to teach next autumn. I had already involved Andy's book for  
the Sound design ( + a bit physics of sound ) course. Now lets hope  
that they will add these courses in the next curriculum :) and I guess  
there is one book we are still seeking at the moment that focuses  
Physical Interaction Design, the same way as Johannes' book. Earlier  
together with Hans we developed PID course materials, and his latest  
work embedding firmata in arduino library hopefully will bring up more  
Pd examples, and maybe later we will have another book. What do you  
think about this Hans? That would be great :)

hi list,

I am pleased to announce that the big pd tutorial I wrote in the last
years with the help of a grant by the Music University of Freiburg /
Germany, is now online, in english and in german.

It is also available as a book (paperback) at Wolke Publishing House,
where the bang book was released.

At the moment, Amazon says that it's not available, which is strange
because it's definitely released, but at least it can be purchased at
the Publishing House itself.

No, I'm fine with that - actually it's encouraged. sssad.pd is just a single
file. But people should keep theire copy up to date. ;)

What I don't like is if people use [sssad/sssad] and expect it to work on
everyone's system automatically. 

 same with the new-fast list-drip in u_listdrip.. is it just for  
 naming-convention that you renamed the abstraction?

Yes, it's just for the naming convention we use. While I don't want to
duplicate other libraries, I also wanted to include a minimal set of useful
list-handling-objects. IMO list-drip, list-map/reduce/filter, a list serializer
and an index lookup are the core objects for list-operations in addition to the
builtins.

 the whole e_ and s_ part is fantastic there are some really powerful

We include sssad as u_sssad because it's central to the saving system (as are
the u_loader and u_dispatch objects) so including it lets people use it without
having to fetch it from somewhere else  first. Rjlib is pretty much
self-contained.

 anyway rjlib/rj is just beautiful. what license is it released under?
 i couldn't find anything about that in the wiki.

Ah, tagging all objects with licenses - that's something on my big TODO 
list. :(

rjlib is planned to be GPL v3 with some patches, like those that have been
taken from the docs, under BSD. sssad or the list-stuff for example is still
BSD.

With xlets, there still is the undecided question if the first argument should
serve a different purpose than tooltips. It could be used to specify the order
explicitly or to do reblocking etc. So even the use of inlet arguments to
specify tooltips is unofficial. 

It's probably to late already, but grabbing more arguments is a bit dangerous
IMO (I don't even use  the first arg so far, but I'm always a bit
extracautious).

Re: [PD] pidip compilation problem

2009-03-17 Thread marc widmer

hi

my configure command looks like this:

./configure --with-pd=/usr/lib/pd 
--with-pdp=/home/metafor/Desktop/puredata-externals/externals/pdp/ 
--with-ffmpeg=/home/metafor/Desktop/puredata-externals/ffmpeg/



i added this option
--disable-capture

but with no success, old pidip fails at the same point. (actually the 
disable option is not available in this version)

my image-magick version is obviously later:
imagemagick_6.3.7.9.dfsg1-2ubuntu1_i386.deb

i checked, the new pidip from svn has --disable-option
with autoconf i genereated a new configure and after this i could 
compile further but, now im stucked

with pdp_live~

i have installed latest ffmpeg from source, but now i am stucked with 
this (see below)


it does not mention anything missing, so i do not know where to search. 
btw. can i easily port my changed pdp_ctrack (v 0.1) to the newest pidip 
install (haven't done it yet)? i guess my pidip at the time was .18 or 
.19, in .23 pdp_ctrack still has version number 0.1 which makes me 
confident.


if you could help me out, i would be reallly happy.

yes, pdp is installed an running (PDP: pure data packet version

ffmpeg is from cvs, but not from sourceforge, apparently ffmpeg moved to

i downloaded it via svn from here:

compilation went fine. but beside the note that you should compile

 Sorry, have to ask.  Since you didn't actually offer any advice in your

no, i'm really quite an audio person, but i know how much the graphics
take.
there such accelerated video cards that you can plug exteranly -
those machines (like accer one or eeepc) don't have anything apart from
usb (!)
my friend got a decent laptop for graphics (live vj'ing he does) and
that costed hi over a thousand quid (may be even 1500something).
the brand is ROCK (they are no so famoust but apparently very good)
that has got like 1024meg of video ram ;)
you probaly don't need to get something like that unless you really can
aford it ;)
may be you could instead get a cheapish pc (like mini- or pico- ATX) and
install good pic-express graphics card in that ..
also you can make a case like these ones - http://audiopint.org/
that would prevent it from being stolen (presuming that the duedes are
particularly after lappies and such stuff that looks good for a quick
dodgy sale).
yeah.. cause if you consider any other laptop capable for that graphics stuff,
you'd have to go for a big fancy machine (like a one which would suite a
gamer), and that is obviously the winner from the point of view of the
thiefs!

also keep in mind that good graphics need more power and better cooling :)

this looks quite good -

this most likely won't work.
ffmpeg is changing rapidly (usually more rapidly than the application 
that rely on it) - so you will have to get a version that is known to 
work with PiDiP.
in the notes it mentions ffmpeg = 0.4.9, so you should probably get 
0.4.9, and not the head of ffmpeg's repository.


until you get it, i suggest trying to compile pidip without ffmpeg support.

hi IOhannes

you are right, it compiles without ffmpeg. i moved my changed c_track

intensively in the next days.


the old pidip will not compile, guess it's what yves mentioned, my

yes, pdp is installed an running (PDP: pure data packet version 
0.12.5-darcs)
ffmpeg is from cvs, but not from sourceforge, apparently ffmpeg moved 
to ffmpeg.org


i downloaded it via svn from here:

svn checkout svn://svn.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg



this most likely won't work.
ffmpeg is changing rapidly (usually more rapidly than the application 
that rely on it) - so you will have to get a version that is known to 
work with PiDiP.
in the notes it mentions ffmpeg = 0.4.9, so you should probably get 
0.4.9, and not the head of ffmpeg's repository.


until you get it, i suggest trying to compile pidip without ffmpeg 
support.

Re: [PD] Writing you own externals in PD How to?

2009-03-17 Thread Georg Holzmann

Hallo!

experience, aims  what I would like is the easiest route to begin 
with :)*


First rule is always: use C/C++ only if it is _really_ necessary.
(you can design most of your filters also with pd's elementary filter 
objects ...)


If you really want DSP externals: http://pdstatic.iem.at/externals-HOWTO/

LG
Georg




I.e. seem to have all these programs Octave (matlab), Faust, Xcode 
,Flext, Terminal etc.


which would be the best path to follow to learn to create my own externals.

Tuition
If there is anyone in the Cambridge England area who does one to one 
tuition and could teach me how to create my own externals please let me 
know.


Guidance appreciated
Geoff

maybe you could have a look to : http://pdstatic.iem.at/externals-HOWTO ...

2009/3/17 Geoff geoffspured...@googlemail.com:
 Hi
 This is quite along post but I thought the background was needed for it to
 make sense.
 Background
 I have previous programming experience however I have been using Pure Data
 for several months now and am enjoying learning it. I am trying to learn DSP
 for myself purely out of personal interest for the subject. I bought a book
 on DSP and became hooked after reading it. :)
 From that point I have relearnt all the A-level maths I studied over 10
 years ago and a few bits of physics, I have gone the the whole of Millers
 book on Pure Data and whilst I would be lying if I said the whole thing made
 sense I can certainly understand and implement alot of it.
 I then moved on to Julius Smiths books on digital filters and physical
 modelling which is where I am at the moment. And I am making slow progress
 there as there is alot to assimilate in that I need to not only be able to
 understand the topic related to Physics, Maths etc. but then know how to use
 Matlab and C++  and Faust  which is all quite a mountain.
 Long Term Aim
 What I want to do eventually when things make more sense is to work with
 creating my own physical models which if I am to do it in pure data would
 surely need me to create externals to run the filtering all inside one
 object.
 System
 Mac OS 10.4.11 Macbook, Pure Data, Octave, Max/Msp, Xcode, Downloaded and
 installed Faust but not sure how to invoke it :(
 Mission
 What I would like to be able to do is to take the examples I am reading
 about in Julius Smiths books and create them as externals within Pure Data
 so I can use them, Play with them :)
 I.e. the book that I am working through 'Introduction to digital filters'
 contains lots of example Matlab and C code for different filters and also
 mentions Faust, then there is also flext to consider.
 http://puredata.info/Members/thomas/flext-intro.pdf
 Q) I want to create my own Pure data objects specifically filters starting
 with the examples in Julius Smiths book. What would be the most straight
 forward path to take to begin with given my System, lack of experience, aims
  what I would like is the easiest route to begin with :)
 I.e. seem to have all these programs Octave (matlab), Faust, Xcode ,Flext,
 Terminal etc.
 which would be the best path to follow to learn to create my own externals.
 Tuition

very elegant, but is a cognitive island (as a further aside,
it is easier to pick up if you already think in dataflow). The problem
is, ordinary C and C++ code isn't easy to integrate. The code generated by
the filter is tersely optimised.

A temporary happy solution is to use Faust's Pd arch filter to make 
some ready made wrappers. Then just drop C/++ code into the main loop.
It gets around the chores of building a Pd external from scratch each time. 

But, if you are going to start doing that sort of thing, that's
what Flext is supposed to be for, though it doesn't quite work out as
easy as you might hope. 

The idea that you can compile for VST, Max, Pd or a standalone
GUI app is very appealing, for both Flext and Faust.

Ultimately, the logical thing is to amplify what Georg says:

Develop in Pd. For a vast majority of DSP development Pd with

then you'd get an external built from a properly componentised pdlib 
that you can immediately include into the running patch (no having to exit
Pd to flush cached classes), just continue building abstraction

A nice example of this would be building filters like biquad
starting with just [+~], [*~] and [z~]. Then in the second round
using them to make a synthesiser. Then in the third round using
those to make a stand alone musical application ... all in a days

Thanks for the reply
This is interesting, but I am not sure if I understand you correctly.

starting with just [+~], [*~] and [z~]. Then in the second round
using them to make a synthesiser. Then in the third round using
those to make a stand alone musical application ... all in a days

So I can actually build filters from smaller building blocks in PD,

So things like a Delay line to simulate a string is possible where by  
I can actually change the filtering in the feedback and feedforward  
paths to simulate different conditions?
I.e. using [Z~] [*] I can create things like a comb filter but then  
have the freedom to put other sorts of filtering in it to make it  
more complex i.e. simulate the end effects of strings etc. all inside  
a single object.


I thought that this can be done in PD as a test exercise but not if I  
want to create something that will actually work fast enough to be  
usable as a synthesizer. I'm glad to have been wrong!



Develop in Pd. For a vast majority of DSP development Pd with

It's what I wish for. Right now the choice is

platform targets, weird DSP algebra notation

3) Hand craft in C - most flexible, tedious setup of

Is is possible to dynamically alter the creation arguments for a route

[maxlib/nroute] can do that. The only difference to [route] is that it
doesn't eliminate the value that is routed. This is because it can be set to

  yeah sorry frank, i should have explained more clearly.

 i also think that no GUI is the way to go for functional abstractions.
  that
 was the big flaw of the DIY library i did, that the function of the
 abstractions was tied in with the gui component.  i did it that way
 because
 i didn't want to clutter the namespace with too many abstractions, and
 the
 thought of one abstraction for function, and then a different one for GUI
 was not appealing at the time.

 but now, i think that is the only way to go.  like, as you said, for
 polyphony.  and then also for the many many cases in which you'd want to
 build your own gui for custom control.


 Yeah, basically that was all I wanted to say as well. ;)


 i do think you guys have got a really really strong system there with
 rjlib.  but i was just saying that without the gui stuff, it doesn't
 exactly
 fit into being that 'all purpose building blocks' library that we are
 discussing.


 Yes, that's true. rjlib has its focus on audio and control abstractions to
 be
 used on mobile devices with vanilla Pd. Some of this fits into a all
 purpose
 library, but a lot of it doesn't.

Yes, with the elementary filter objects you can directly input poles and zeros

You should definitely read Miller Puckette's book, it's fantastic and has a

 years with the help of a grant by the Music University of Freiburg /
 Germany, is now online, in english and in german.

 It is also available as a book (paperback) at Wolke Publishing House,
 where the bang book was released.

 At the moment, Amazon says that it's not available, which is strange
 because it's definitely released, but at least it can be purchased at
 the Publishing House itself.

Re: [PD] Pd book sprint in NYC/Berlin

I think we have the space on Saturday/Sunday noon til midnight and  
Monday til 9am-6pm EDT, but the room is occupied 6-9pm on Monday.  But  
wait, I think I had my time zones mixed up.  6pm in NYC would be  
midnight in Berlin, so that works well then.

What time are people thinking of starting in Berlin?  I am trying

If so, that's easier for NYC time to sync up with.  But that's not

I've spent a long time on it now and have come to the conclusion that  
it is dependancy related or a hardware problem relating to my netbook.  
Either way I couldn't spend any more time trying solutions and so I  
moved to fendora 10. It's yumming away at the moment.


Pure Dyne would have solved all my problems but unfortuatly it will  
not run on my acer aspire. It's a known issue. I've downloaded ubuntu  
studio also and may try that.


All I wanna do is make a ball move :(

Thanks though

Re: [PD] (yet another) www.pd-tutorial.com

2009-03-17 Thread Alexandre Porres
Congratulations! It is certainly something we need.
In Fact, I am doing a book myself :)

and I am about to share it.

I got it in Portuguese for now. Who wants to take a peak? :)

I present topics such as: *Wavetable Synthesis - DC Offset – Modulation
(Amplitude, Ring, Frequency, Pulse Width) – Additive/Subtractive Synthesis -
Filters – WaveShaping - Spectral Analisys (FFT/Resynthesis) - Convolution 
Convolution Reverb - Vocoder, Cross Synthesis - Phase Vocoder*.

Gladly, it is a different proposal, so johannes book, as well as Miller's
and Floss Manuals all are complementary publications.

Talking about Phase Vocoder is an attempt to make it more accessible than in
Miller's book, in a sense that I wish to reach people with no Background in
Computer Science. I dont emphasize much on programing and implementing
things in Puredata, so books like johanes' are definately handy...

I like the part on Convolution, as it is not covered in other pd books I
guess.

Actually, I would really like to discuss this with you people.

I must say we need to improve Pdpedia and commit to this project as a
comunity. I can handle the Portuguese and English part.

Lets better promote Pd by publishing about it! :)

i should probably avoid writing emails before bed, and my negative bias

unproductive meetings. anyhow you are quite right to push this one, to 
converse without latency can be very productive (but equally unproductive 
too) - a good meeting requires a fair bit more preparation and planning than 
just the medium, regardless of mcluhans philosophy. incidentally i have

enough with regard to psychology and technology, to retrofit his ideologies

I must say this is a nice text. However, I was hoping to see more in the

Frank, I'm curious about how you use list objects in composition. I'd love

always make such clear, concise, and fun instructional patches.

 Hm, you all are so fast readers, reading a book in less than one evening.

 By quickly scanning through the book and grep'ing the patches, I wonder,
 why
 not a single patch uses the [list] object which - not only because of the
 [list]-abs - is one of my most often used objects especially for
 composition? I
 would expect a section on list-processing when teaching people how to
 compose.

 Anyway, I haven't read it yet, maybe these topics are presented without
