Re: [PD] pix_video webcam 1280x720
Ran into this same problem on osx two weeks ago using Microsoft HD webcams. The resolution was fine on Linux (which I built the patch in) but wouldn't do HD on osx. It will work in windows, so we switched out machines for the final project. The HD video does come through at full resolution on osx in other applications, but not in PD. I agree I think it's a Gem problem with osx. Running a virtual linux machine on osx I was able to use the full resolution, but alas the mac osx only allows one USB port per camera, so that solution wasn't going to work for my problem. Running a virtual machine for a professional application is probably too risky in terms of latency and complexity, but there's always boot camp for macs, and Linux is free. -Alex On Sep 6, 2013, at 9:52 AM, Dan Wilcox wrote: Eh no.

[PD] Computer Music Journal - Special Issue on Live Coding - Call for Submissions
We are excited to announce a call for papers for a special issue of Computer Music Journal, with a deadline of 21st January 2013, for publication in Spring of the following year. The issue will be guest edited by Alex McLean, Julian Rohrhuber and Nick Collins, and will address themes surrounding live coding practice. Live coding focuses on a computer musician’s relationship with their computer. It includes programming a computer as an explicit onstage act, as a musical prototyping tool with immediate feedback, and also as a method of collaborative programming. Live coding’s tension between immediacy and indirectness brings about a mediating role for computer language within musical interaction. At the same time, it implies the rewriting of algorithms, as descriptions which concern the future; live coding may well be the missing link between composition and improvisation. The proliferation of interpreted and just-in-time compiled languages for music and the increasing computer literacy of artists has made such programming interactions a new hotbed of musical practice and theory. Many musicians have begun to design their own particular representational extensions to existing general-purpose languages, or even to design their own live coding languages from scratch. They have also brought fresh energy to visual programming language design, and new insights to interactive computation, pushing at the boundaries through practice-based research. Live coding also extends out beyond pure music and sound to the general digital arts, including audiovisual systems, linked by shared abstractions. 2014 happens to be the ten-year anniversary of the live coding organisation TOPLAP (toplap.org). However, we do not wish to restrict the remit of the issue to this, and we encourage submissions across a sweep of emerging practices in computer music performance, creation, and theory. Live coding research is more broadly about grounding computation at the verge of human experience, so that work from computer system design to exposition of live coding concert work is equally eligible. Topic suggestions include, but are not limited by: - Programming as a new form of musical exploration - Embodiment and linguistic abstraction - Symbology in music interaction - Uniting liveness and abstraction in live music - Bricolage programming in music composition - Human-Computer Interaction study of live coding - The psychology of computer music programming - Measuring live coding and metrics for live performance - The live coding audience, or live coding without audience - Visual programming environments for music - Alternative models of computation in music - Representing time in interactive programming - Representing and manipulating history in live performance - Freedoms, constraints and affordances in live coding environments Authors should follow all CMJ author guidelines (http://www.mitpressjournals.org/page/sub/comj), paying particular attention to the maximum length of 25 double-spaced pages. Submissions should be received by 21st January 2013. All submissions and queries should be addressed to Alex McLean . ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Re: [PD] midiout / sysex on windows
I had sysex input and output working on my linux machine but I've had a harddrive failure since then and haven't tried with the latest pd build. I think I used [midiout] and I needed to use the ALSA midi instead of portmidi, or something.. It has been a little while. One thing to note is that the size of the sysex input buffer is limited to something like 23 bytes, I submitted a change to this but I got little response as far as I can remember. It was just another hard-coded higher limit though, the small limit makes PD pretty much useless for parsing most midi sysex dumps like patch dumps from synths [which is what I was trying to do, make a patch editor for the dave smith instrument's evolver]. -Alex On Wed, Feb 3, 2010 at 10:04 AM, wrote: > I don't think sysex works on linux either; at least I'm trying to send using > [midiout] using alsa midi and nothing is going through the interface, > whereas [noteout] works fine.

Re: [PD] midiout / sysex on windows
I just tried this myself on a friend's windows machine running a relatively recent version of pd extended, though I'm not exactly sure which one.. it gave me an error MidiOut Error 1 whenever I tried to send a sysex message out. And there was an error about [sysexin] not being implemented on windows and [midiout] being dangerous.. I'm not sure if midiin worked with sysex or not because i couldn't get the sysex out.. Anyone know if this has changed or if there are plans to make sysex i/o work for windows?

[PD] live coding festival in newcastle, uk?
Hi all and happy new year, I'm looking into the possibility of running a live coding festival in Newcastle later this year. To be supported it would need to be a bit bigger than previous events dedicated to live coding - 100+ . It would include performances, talks and beginners workshops. So I'm gauging interest - if you would be interested in coming to such a thing, please add yourself on this wiki page: http://toplap.org/index.php/Newcastle2010 You don't have to sign up to anything - just click 'edit' and add your name to the list. You won't be committing to anything, but your interest would be helping make it happen! For those unfamiliar with live coding, there's a bit of info here: http://toplap.org/uk/about/ Thanks very much, alex -- http://yaxu.org/ ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] jack_transport~ little patch:rewind
Hey Lorenzo, I submitted a patch in May [check the archives if you're interested] which lets you the "locate" functionality of jack_transport from pd, this lets you seek anywhere, |locate 0( seems to do what your rewind does. I didn't have any response from the author about it. Anyways, no reason the two cannot co-exist, just figured I'd let you know in case you want to seek to other locations within your score/song. -Alex On Thu, Nov 12, 2009 at 10:03 AM, Lorenzo wrote: > I have added a rewind functionality to the jack_transport~ object by Jacob > Lee to ease use with Ardour.

Re: [PD] Sysex out problems (linux only)
You could try making it so that you don't send sysex messages on every change.. just poll for changes at a certain rate.. and only sent the most recent change at that rate? -Alex 2009/7/17 András Murányi : >> 2009/7/8 Alex >>> >>> I think that pd's midi out doesn't take whole sysex messages though, >>> you simply send a stream of bytes.

Re: [PD] Sysex out problems (linux only)
I think that pd's midi out doesn't take whole sysex messages though, you simply send a stream of bytes. This is how it has been working for me. I created an abstraction which takes a list of bytes and makes it into a sysex message (stream of bytes) [adds the sysex start and start and then outputs bytes one by one] and it works quite well for me. I've attached it just as an example. Btw, the sysex loopback code [using the software through] that you sent initially does work for me.. I get the whole message. -Alex 2009/7/8 Martin Peach : > András Murányi wrote: >> >> 2009/7/8 Martin Peach > <mailto:martin.pe...@sympatico.ca>> >> >> András Murányi wrote: >> >> Dear Sirs, >> >> I just have never been successful with sysex in Pd and I'm >> asking for your kind advice. >> Attached is an example for a long sysex message which goes out >> on [midiout] (linux only, afaik). >> The problems I have: >> - sysex gets fragmented (also when nothing is sent out meanwhile >> by other objects).

Re: [PD] Sysex out problems (linux only)
It looks like you may experiencing another thing that i've complained about... pd's alsa midi connects to all MIDI inputs and outputs that it can.. this includes alsa's MIDI through.. so everything that you send out gets echoed back into the input.. SUPER annoying. run aconnect [or easier, though not great, aconnectgui] and see if that is the case for you.. disconnect pd from the alsa through port. -Alex 2009/7/7 András Murányi : > > 2009/7/8 Alex >> >> > - sysex gets fragmented (also when nothing is sent out meanwhile by >> > other >> > objects).

Re: [PD] Sysex out problems (linux only)
I haven't actually tested sysex out limits, but sysex in is limited to something like 24 byte messages.. here is a thread where i talk about it: http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2009-01/067372.html It is hard coded into the source. You can modify the source to change the hard coded limit.. i have a diff on that thread which shows how i did it. It would be nice if this limit was either totally removed or dynamically growable.. as it would be really nice to be able to write real sysex editors in PD. I have been creating my own physical devices with sysex and I use pd to edit the sysex data but i have to make my sysex packets short because of PD's limitations. -Alex 2009/7/7 András Murányi : > Dear Sirs, > > I just have never been successful with sysex in Pd and I'm asking for your > kind advice. > Attached is an example for a long sysex message which goes out on [midiout] > (linux only, afaik). > The problems I have: > - sysex gets fragmented (also when nothing is sent out meanwhile by other > objects).

Re: [PD] jack_transport improvements
This is pretty nice... thanks! I changed 1 thing and added another
method to the external which might be useful for others [updated the
help with that].
First, I figured the external shouldn't try to start the jack server
if it isn't already started.. so i changed the options used for
creating the client to reflect that.
Second, I created a 'locate' method, which lets you set a new location
for the transport [giving it a frame number].. Most usefully, |locate
0( to put the transport back to the beginning.
I've attached the diff and the updated help file.

[PD] [list-value]
I'm sure someone has already done this but I didn't find it in list-abstractions or anywhere else so I figured I'd post my own solution. In messing with list I've found that sometimes in a patch I'll have to keep several instances of the same list. I figure this called for a [value] for lists, so I created [list-value] which works just like [value] but stores and outputs lists instead of floats.

Re: [PD] problem with plugin~ and dssi~
Hmm, I'm using the most recent version of pd [built from source] and the most recent version of dssi~ [built from the svn of pd-externals]. I have: DSSI_PATH=/usr/lib/dssi/:/usr/local/lib/dssi/ and have a few dssi plugins in /usr/lib/dssi/ : hexter hexter.so less_trivial_synth.so ll-scope.so nekobee.la trivial_sampler trivial_synth.so xsynth-dssi.la hexter.la less_trivial_synth ll-scope nekobee nekobee.so trivial_sampler.so xsynth-dssi xsynth-dssi.so When I do [dssi~ less_trivial_synth] nothing is loaded. when I do [dssi~ /usr/lib/dssi/less_trivial_synth.so:less_trivial_synth] pd pauses and then crashes with a segfault... This happens when loading ANY of these dssi plugins (I've tried hexter, nekobee, ll-scope, trivial_synth, less_trivial_synth, trivial_sampler) I am able to do [dssi~ gverb].. so it seems that ladspa is fine. It seems that, at least with my version, dssi~ doesn't like dssi plugins.. Any ideas what I should try next?

I am trying to get a sysex dump into pd, this dump is 226 bytes long. I use alsa for midi. I'm using pd 0.41.4. I am able to send the sysex data from pd to my device, and the device sends the data back [I can verify the dump with amidi] but once I connect my device's output to pd..

Re: [PD] max for live
As Live is proprietary software, and they have already embedded Max, I don't see how PD could get into it... though PD can be used in parallel to Live, sending midi [and I assume audio?.. using Jack or soundflower or something?] PD can also be used as a vst [though I've never done it, being a Linux only user, and preferring to work directly in PD]: http://crca.ucsd.edu/~jsarlo/pdvst/ Besides the inline editing [inside Live], I haven't thought of a real example that cannot be done with PD along-side of Live.. though, it is not as slick.. -Alex On 1/16/09, harris_pil...@gmx.de wrote: > hi guys, > > i was just wondering why you guys dont do this max for live thing that > was announced? i guess there will be no way that pd will be > implemented in live like that? but maybe someone in the list has ideas > to work around that? > > for the ones who dont know what i'm talking about; it's pretty much > this: ableton.com/extend > > ___ > 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
Re: [PD] Fwd: midi_sync_out
So it turns out that with the newer stable pd (0.41-4) [midiout] works. So I've changed my external into a very simple abstraction. I'm providing it here as an attachment with a help file that shows a simple syncing solution. Note: it does not work with pd 0.40-2 and alsa, I'm figuring it wouldn't work with pd-extended and alsa... but maybe Hans has rolled back the [midiout] fixes into the current extended? I haven't tested with any of the other midi apis. Basically this patch allows you to sync an external midi device with a metro so you can have pd do things in sync with an external drum machine, synthesizer, whatever.. that accepts sync in.

[PD] midi_sync_out
I bet someone has already done this but I haven't seen it yet so I figured I'd do it myself. I made an external which lets me send midi clock, start, stop and continue messages out of pd. This way I can sync an external drum-machine, sequencer, etc., to pd. I've placed the code here: http://x37v.info/projects/puredata/midi_sync_out/code/midi_sync_out.tar.gz I just wrote it in the last hour or so, and have tested it only with 1 drum machine.. I'm using ALSA for midi, if you're not you'll have to modify the Makefile (I couldn't figure out how to send midi bytes in a generic way as the sys_queuemidimess function is static). It is a super simple external. I tried for a while to simply use the [midiout] object but I couldn't figure out how to get it to actually output anything. I looked at the pd source code, it looks like there is a little bit of code to send clock out messages but I don't think it is exposed to the user in any object... and I didn't see anything about start/stop/continue messages. There is a help file which explains the functionality of the object and gives a really basic sync out solution. Please tell me if this works for you, if this is redundant [encompassed by another project (which you could point me to)], etc. Thanks, Alex ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

[PD] Building Externals
Can someone tell me how to build the new svn externals? I downloaded from the svn: https://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pure-data/trunk/externals I run make mrpeach [I'm only worried about this external at this time] and I get: 09:20:13 $ make mrpeach Makefile:27: /packages/Makefile.buildlayout: No such file or directory grep: /sigpack/source/sIgpAck.c: No such file or directory grep: /zexy/src/zexy.h: No such file or directory make: *** No rule to make target `/packages/Makefile.buildlayout'. Stop. The README says to go here: http://puredata.org/docs/developer/ And there I see some information about "Directory Layout for Developers" (but about the old cvs repo) and some other stuff, but no info about how to simply build the externals using make. Is there no step-by-step list of instructions? It seems to me that in an effort to make things 'easy' and 'centralized' this has actually become more complicated and less easy. It would be easier for me if I could just dl the externals I want, and run 'make' in their respective directories [maybe editing the destination path before I do that]. A larger build script could simply export some environment variable(s) to set global defaults for these paths [if a sane, standard makefile is given to all developers to work from]. Maybe I'm missing some vital information though? -Alex ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

[PD] text based pd patching
Hi pders Here's a way of PD patching in plaintext: ** | ..\ .-x. | osc~ 5 | * | osc~ 500 | `-x--' | `-x'|| | .-x--. | | | *~ 300 | | | `-x--' | *---* || | ** .-x--. | *~ 0.2 | `-x--' | * |\ | * | | .-x-x--. | dac~ | `--' http://doc.gold.ac.uk/~ma503am/alex/textual-patching/ You can define pd objects and connect them together with ASCII syntax. Layout is preserved as well. Much like in ghostbusters, you can't cross the lines, and there isn't syntax for different box types (messages and numbers). Fixing this would be short work, but I ran out of train journey :) There is a particular syntax for drawing the lines. You use - for going left and right, | for going up and down and \ and / for going diagonally. To change direction or fork a wire you have to place a * .

Re: [PD] texturing a circular image onto a hemisphere in GEM
so to make this easy think of a square texture that has a picture the globe centered inside it. i want to take that picture and map the flat image of the globe onto a hemisphere so that you see [in this virtual world] 1/2 of a globe, warped so that, in the virtual world, it looks correct. -Alex On 10/15/07, marius schebella <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi alex, > I am not sure what you're trying to do, but I am eager to help you... > do you want to project the video onto a wall/ceiling hemisphere inside a > real room? or are you talking about virtual projections? > I guess what you have to do first is distort the circled video back into > a square and then use that to texture the sphere. > marius. > > > sphere with a ? is it just the mapping on the spherefor any distortion you > > Alex wrote: > > Maybe a different subject will inspire some help? > > > > basically, I have video that was shot on a mirrored spherical ball.. > > this gives a circular image inside a rectangular video, I've figured > > out how to crop it so that I just get the square that surrounds the > > circle, but I cannot figure out how to correctly map this texture onto > > a sphere so that it is only on one hemisphere and so that the circle's > > circumference is on a "great circle" of the sphere?

[PD] texturing a circular image onto a hemisphere in GEM
Maybe a different subject will inspire some help? basically, I have video that was shot on a mirrored spherical ball.. this gives a circular image inside a rectangular video, I've figured out how to crop it so that I just get the square that surrounds the circle, but I cannot figure out how to correctly map this texture onto a sphere so that it is only on one hemisphere and so that the circle's circumference is on a "great circle" of the sphere? [ie it the circle is warped out so that it becomes a hemisphere]. I figure maybe I have to do some GEMgl stuff for this? if anyone has done this, would you please share? If not, any advice?

[PD] Gem texturing panoramic video to a hemisphere
I have some panoramic video that I want to use to texture a hemisphere [or rather, the bottom half of a sphere]. I cannot simply texture the sphere with the video because the warping is not correct.. it seems that I need some sort of non-rectangular warping of the image before I texture the object, or a non-rectangular mapping of the texture onto the sphere. Any ideas or advice? Does anyone else have experience working with panoramic video in Gem? -Alex ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

[PD] Newbie having problems with Pduino
Hi All, I've uploaded the Pd_Firmware 1.32 to a new Arduino Diecimila board. I've been trying to get the board to communicate with Pd 0.39.3-extended-rc5 on Ubuntu Studio but unfortunately haven't had any joy. Pd will recognise the ttyUSB0 device file and the RX light on the board will flash when "pulse all outputs" is selected within arduino-test.pd, although the mounted LED on pin 13 doesn't respond. It seems that the analogue inputs aren't working either. It's probably something I've overlooked but If anyone has any suggestions it would be great to hear from you.

I want to trigger an event when an incoming audio signal (which i know is a ramp between 0 and 1), crosses some threshold. basically i want something like [adc~] | [last sample <= x && cur sample >x] | [a drum or something is triggered] any ideas how i can do that?

[PD] Active stereo Gem (Crystal Eyes)
Hi, (I originally sent this to the GEM-dev list but i figure others on
here might be interested in this information)
I've added the ability to do active [crystal glasses] stereo in gem [using the
X version] and am attaching the diff. If you have a stereo enabled video card
and a display that can support it this modification will open a stereo window by
default and then you will be able to use this additional stereo mode [3]. If
you don't use this stereo mode there should be no change in what you see, if
your videocard doesn't support [or isn't set up for] active stereo then you
won't be able to use this stereo mode as you won't have a stereo window that
you're drawing to.
I've only added stereo windows for the X version of Gem but it really shouldn't
be hard to get it working for Windows or Mac, all that needs to be done is to
open a stereo window by default if it is supported by the graphics card.
I've attached a diff to the most recent CVS, hopefully this will be useful for
other folks.

I didn't see a compile option that allowed me to disable these frame buffer commands, so I added this: #undef GL_EXT_framebuffer_object to src/Controls/gemframebuffer.cpp after the includes. and now gem works via chromium. Maybe the Gem developers could add [or suggest one that already exists] a compile time option to disable these commands, so that others might be able to use chromium with gem as well. -Alex btw, I've sent this info to the GEM list as well but figured it might be useful for some people on here as well.

[PD] GEM 64-bit Linux
Has anyone here built GEM for a 64-bit Linux box? The configure script isn't finding opengl for some reason [though I have built other opengl apps] i do get this line when i run configure: checking host system type... Invalid configuration `x86_64-pc-linux-gnu': machine `x86_64-pc' not recognized any suggestions? btw, I'm on an AMD64 running ubuntu edgy.
