Awesome, glad to see that one of my old patches was incorporated into
something so original. Sometimes I think the best thing about programming
in Pd is getting to be part of a greater ecosystem of creativity.

Oh well, at least you've done the groundwork.

 Also, this is probably elementary, but is it possible to highlight an
 array
  like this in regular Pd?

 You could do something similar, but maybe not exactly the same, by
 overlaying a datastructure on top of an array. Check out the Pd
 documentation for more information.


Ah, thanks, I thought I was seeing a feature of Pd that I had somehow
overlooked, as I've seen that kind of glitching interface in Max/MSP.

Re: [PD] compiling Pd-extended on Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10

Thanks, Orm, that worked.

I was able to install, but there are two problems: a) the Media menu doesn't
give me options of sound servers to connect to (JACK, ALSA, OSS, etc.), and
I'd like to use Pd with JACK, and b) externals don't seem to have compiled.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

[PD] compiling Pd-extended on Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10

2010-03-29 Thread Ichabod
I couldn't find any Pd-extended builds for Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 (is
there one anywhere?), and the autobuild for Ubuntu Karmic i386 didn't work,
so I tried compiling from source.  I extracted the source and then cd'ed to
the ~/Pd-0.41.4-extended/pd/src folder and ran autoconf and then
./configure.  At that point, it gives me a bunch of checking for...
messages and then ends with no tcl library found.  I have tcllib
installed.  What am I doing wrong?

[PD] why do [bp~] and [vcf~] sound different?

2009-07-14 Thread Ichabod
(posted this on the Pd forum, but it was suggested that I e-mail the list as
well, so here I am out of lurk mode)

I was working on some patches with bandpass filters that were initially
[vcf~], but I ended up deciding not to vary the center frequency, so I
replaced them with [bp~].  Now I find that [bp~] sounds different; e.g., a
[phasor~ 100] going through a [bp~ 440 3] sounds different from one going
out the left outlet of a [vcf~ 3] with [sig~ 440] going into its center
inlet.  I couldn't find anything in the help files indicating that they're
different other than using control vs. signal for the center frequency, so
what's the deal?  How do I replace a non-varying [vcf~] with a [bp~] that
sounds the same?

 Cyrille


I wouldn't say I *need* to, I'd just like to... Here's an example: I was
making a composition that used a choral pad with vcf~ objects acting as
movable formants.  I decided I only really need the voices to sing ah,
so I realized I don't need the movable formants after all, so I can
economize on CPU by using static bandpass filters rather than moving ones.
I've never seen anything about differences between the filters' internal
math, so I was surprised to find that they sound different.

So basically what I want to know is: if I have a vcf~ with a given q and
constant center frequency, is there a way to replace it more cheaply?

Re: [PD] PD t-shirts

2009-04-02 Thread Ichabod
It would be cool if the design were an actual patch, kind of like
http://createdigitalmusic.com/2006/06/29/maxmsp-and-circuit-bending-t-shirts/(but
a superior Pd version).  What would be really great would be if people
could submit their own patches and have shirts made from them.  I'm sure
this would be way too much of a hassle, but I can dream.

Otherwise, I like hardoff's bang-until idea, or a rendition of 4'33 going
into a [writesf~] (if you entertain fantasies of being sued by the Cage
estate).

 one of the biggest problems with copy/paste right now in pd is, that if

 move the wrong object. in this case, you can only  undo the last action

YES.  Dear God, that's frustrating when that happens.  Aside from the

 in theory there are only 65536 different possibilites for amplitudes of
 one sample, so if you register 65536 pieces of music, each 1 sample
 long, then you you should be able to claim copyright from everyone who's
 music is based on amplitudes. maybe you can also register one sample of

Re: [PD] german forum or mailinglist

2008-08-04 Thread Ichabod
Oh good, is this in response to my post at
http://puredata.hurleur.com/sujet-1993-openpanel-open-readsf-help ?  (I hope
no one laughs at my fractured German...) My thoughts in posting that were
that, although fragmenting the knowledge base might be an issue, a more
important principle is that, as the Ubuntu distribution philosophy states,
Every computer user should be able to use their software in the language of
their choice.

It's convenient for me as an Anglophone to be able to find the Pd knowledge
I need in English, so I certainly benefit when German speakers decide to
spend their time and energy on this list and the English-language forum.
But I think the whole community benefits when barriers to use of the
software fall.  If someone speaking another language is able to get help
with his or her technical issues in that language, then we all ultimately
benefit when that person decides to share his/her finished patch or the
output thereof.

Of course, I leave it to the German speakers to determine whether such a
forum will be worth their personal time and effort.  But I think presenting
the need and gauging interest is certainly appropriate.
