[PD] relative paths with mrpeach [midifile] in abstraction

2014-01-25 Thread Dan Wilcox
Is there some way to modify mrpeach [midifile] so that it will correctly handle 
relative paths while it's in an abstraction? I notice that soundfiler does this.

Bascially, I have a wrapper around midifile but it assumes given relative paths 
are relative to the wrapper patch and not the parent patch.

 Dear IOhannes, dear Jonathan,
 dear list,
 
 I feel ashamed (and old-fashioned) as I have not seen this new feature
 of Pd as a feature I am afraid. Thanks for pointing it out to me.
 I think it is a nice addon, but also wonder if there is a nice way to
 disable this functionality at all. 

stupid question from my side: why?

Re: [PD] non linear distortion

Hi Xiao, check out [overdrive~] and [saturate~] from the cyclone and
sigpack libraries in extended.

 Hi , i been reading that the richness of the sound in tube amplifiers
 is due natural non-linearities inherent in tube amplifiers.

 I was wondering if there are ways to simulate or recreate these kind
 of non linearities for distortions.


 are there any nonlinear distortions in pd? or do anybody have tried
 implementing something like this?





 cheers


 Xiao.

using [declare -path .]
works when the main patch is started up through the .pd extension;
NOT when the patch is opened through the Pd menu.

at least that's what i experience in Windows

[PD] read first bytes of a file with [binfile]

2014-01-25 Thread Jack
It looks like that is not possible.
Would it be doable to add that feature to [binfile] because I need to
read the first bytes of files  3 Gigabytes ?
Thanx.

For example a message like

[read file.ext 200{
|
[binfile]

would read only the first 200 bytes? That should be doable.

sorry, i should be more precise about what i experience.

i'm using ../folder to load soundfiles in my patch.
while having a [declare -path .] in the main patch.

like i said in the first mail: this works when the patch is started up  
'directly'.


when i first start Pd and then open the patch with the menu-open
Pd cannot find the directory.

[PD] Comma in Textfile Vanilla Solution

2014-01-25 Thread me.grimm
I didnt realize this was a problem until i tried to read a textfile with a
comma in it (yes escaped with a \)

so hello\,world; gives me:

hello\\,world

now what?

the archive was not helpful because all suggested solutions use extended
objects. is there no way to have a coma in textfile in vanilla?

Re: [PD] declare and abstraction (cont.)

2014-01-25 Thread Miller Puckette
Are you using readsf~ to read th soundfile?  Unfortunately, readsf~
doesn't search along the canvas's path (for complicated reasons) and so needs 
to be sent an explicit path, like ../folder/a.wav, to find files outside 
the patch's directory.

Alternatively you can set Pd's global path in preferences -- readsf~ knows
how to use those even though it doesn't know about the patch's own declarations.
