I don't know much about this, but i'm pretty sure you can't get as low a
latency as that of Linux and Mac OS in windows. The thing is that
"performance and studio" doesn't mean anything per se. If you only need a
drum machine or a sequencer for your performance, then you don't really care
about latency at all. Same for recording. Latency only becomes a problem
when you need to process your sound in real time (if you want to apply an
effect on a voice for instance), or when you need to do some overdubbing
(recording a track while listening to another). For this you need a real low
latency, which implies direct access to the processor for your audio data,
and i don't think Windows allows that.

FYI,  we have purchased some recent eeepc (I cannot tell exactly
which, I don't have the info at hand).  It was pre-loaded with windows
7.  I installed ubuntu loaded with the necessary libraries and pd.  I
have experimented with running our pd patches under windows but the
performance terrible compared to linux (even before tweaking any
settings to improve performance).  I could run the same setup on an
Acer Aspire One but the processing is not very intensive, in any case.
 On the other hand, I do not know how to make Windows efficient, it
must be possible since there are so many people relying on it for
performance and studio work.

Re: [PD] Gigs with Pd

[ailo]

If you're looking for low latency, than you're propably looking for the 
Linux rt-kernel. The generic kernel already does low latency very well, 
but the rt-kernel can be a level higher.


Don't know how much the hardware is relevant to the choice of a distro, 
other than that of my own experience with NVIDIA graphic cards, in which 
case I've come to believe that NVIDIA works easier on on "Ubuntu" 
RT-kernels than on much of the competition, unless you compile the 
kernel module yourself. Specifically in RT-kernels the difference may be 
striking.


I've tried Fedora withPlanet CCRMA, last autumn (on Pentium 3 and AMD 
Sempron), but had to give up after loosing two harddisks at once (on the 
same machine). I seemed to have problems with something to do with 
no=acpi, or something on that road (I'm not a wizard at these things, as 
you may have gathered). I made some extensive research on the subject, 
but the solutions given on different forums were not enough for my 
hardware, at least. Shutting down didn't work very well. Often I had to 
use the Power button to shut the whole thing down. This was on a clean 
Fedora + CCRMA system, with no other additions other than:
a pci usb 2.0 card (which may have caused the problem due to IRQ, if I 
understand correctly)

a pci m-audio sound-card
and a pci wireless network card.

Puredyne uses the "Ubuntu" RT-kernel, to my knowledge (it's been a while 
since I updated that machine),

That is the system I use as a "production machine".
The pre-installed Pure Data did not work for me. Neither on the 32 bit 
system or the 64 bit system. The input sound was not right (distorted, 
wrong samplerate, somtehing like that).
However, the daily build of pd-extended (at this date being the release 
candidate 5 (rc-5)), works perfectly. And the Ubuntu RT-kernel, together 
with the minimal Puredyne, XFCE desktop is a dream for the live musician.

It "just" works for me.
At home, when "rt" is not as important, but easy desktop-use is, I use 
the standard Ubuntu (though not crash-free).


Can't find a straight answer to which is the best system. I haven't had 
stainless experiences with any of them.

99% of the time, though, I prefer Ubuntu-based systems.

when it comes to formating your linux partition and accessing Windows

Also, when you have a linux distribution installed, first thing you 
should do is download and install the realtime kernel (when 
available), and then try JACK to see what the minimal latency is. If 
it's not way less than in windows then there's something wrong. Then 
download, install and run Pd, and make sure it works normally (it 
didn't in Ubuntu 9.04 on my laptop).

I use a Xybernaut wearable computer running a minimal, no gui Ubuntu and pd 
with realtime priority and a Roland UA-25 soundcard. It's a slow computer 
(500Mhz) but with the right settings I have 2 channels in (voice and guitar) 
and a mixed stereo out with around 12-16ms latency, which is acceptable. The 
only time I get dropouts are when switching between song patches, which is not 
a big deal.

Pd does realtime generation and processing from control and incoming audio. A 
master patch contains the audio in/out, osc in/out, and playlist. An 8 channel 
global mixer mixes down to stereo and each song is recorded to wav as I play. 
Each song is a separate patch noted in the [coll] playlist text file. Switching 
between songs closes the current song and then opens the new one. A compact 
flash card contains the songs and media and a small script which is called when 
the cf card is mounted which tells pd which playlist to load on the card. This 
way I have different sets per card. The same could be done using usb 
thumbsticks (should be faster then cf cards) but I used cf cards since the 
wearable has a slot for one.

Software wise I have scripting that automatically starts everything and 
autoconnects alsa midi to pd. A custom daemon grabs hid gamepad events and 
sends them to pd over osc. The hids are automatically opened when udev detects 
a new hid device which is super important on a headless machine with no mouse 
or keyboard. I have a simple visual engine that accepts commands over osc from 
pd. The overhead with everything running is around 180-230 MB of RAM on a 
machine with only 256 but it works. I had to fiddle with getting the nice 
settings just right so the applications work well together.

I am currently in the process of cleaning up my setup. Once it's ready you can 
download and try it out on Ubuntu.

Here's my (a bit empty for now) trac project page : 
http://trac.robotcowboy.com/ and source repository: 
http://trac.robotcowboy.com/browser/robotcowboy/trunk

In the future I plan to try out a beagle board or gumstix. If I could get 
funding/sponsorship, I'd drop the 7 grand for one of these: 
http://www.bdatech.com/switchback/ a military grade UMPC. The Xybernaut I have 
is industrial grade (cost $1 new, but I got for $350 on ebay) and it will 
outlast any netbook or consumer laptop on the road. Do not underestimate the 
quality and durability of the hardware you consider while building a 
performance machine. One option is to buy a mini-itx board and mount it and a 
soundcard etc into a pelican case ala AudioPint.

Also: the computer will fuck you no matter how much time you put into making it 
work. Make sure to have a *back up* plan for when it crashes. If you have 
everything setup correctly, you can just reboot and do a little song and dance 
... :D My experience is that 1 reboot is enjoyed by the audience, a second is 
tolerated, and 3 or more means the promoter will chew you out and wonder why 
you don't use a Mac and Albeton etc ...

Re: [PD] Gigs with Pd

[Pierre Massat]

hi Jeffrey,

I ll try and post some pics next week. My setup is nothing special:
- a Dell laptop (core 2 duo, 1,6 Ghz, and 0,9 GB of RAM)
- an EMU 0404 usb soundcard
- Fedora 12 with a rt kernel, JACK and Pd-extended
- an electric guitar, and some custom foot controllers based on a cheap usb
gamepad.

I get about 5ms of latency, maybe 4.5. I don't do anything too fancy in Pd,
because it needs to be playable (i play in a rock band), but i can process
both my guitar and my voice in real time without dropouts (and i use some
rather cpu-intensive patches, based on fft analysis and stuff).
The only tricky thing i was faced with when trying to put this setup
together was the output impedence of my soundcard, which had to match that
of my amp's input (i bought a shure impedence matching transformer and it
solved the problem).

Hope it helps.

Pierre

 and they are already small.  Then you'd even have a battery powered setup

hi,

why not using a small, but full-feature computer with an usb soundcard. 
cheap, fast, solid:

http://www.workinprogress.ca/biscuit-box-computer/

the main advantage: intel cpu - no need to recompile everything / anything.

I would like to exclude my laptop from live performance, so to be able to
upload my pd patch (or patches) to a device like the beagleboard seems
perfect for my needs.

@Dan Wilcox - Where you able to build your setup? which one did you go
for? how would you be using it (live processing, generation, or

@Pierre Massat - Can you post pics or a video (with some performance maybe

Latency is an important issue of course so your thoughts on how to improve

 There was a discussion not too long ago about suitability of Pd in a
 live context (off the "smoother audio" thread i think). I just wanted to 
 say
 that i use Pd everytime i play a gig with my band as a super multi effects.
 I have never experienced any crash in Pd, and the sound is just excellent,
 and everybody keeps asking me what the hell are these pedals and this
 software and how the eff do i make all these sounds, and well, i just think
 this is the future. I m just hoping that sometime soon we'll have a piece

 hardware that's small and powerful enough to run Pd in realtime and I'll
 have the perfect gear (perfect for me).
 Just wanted to share this.

This performance is awesome! I haven't seen experimental bassoon before. It
makes me wish I'd kept up with it after junior high school.

 I have never experienced any crash in Pd, and the sound is just excellent,

Re: [PD] Gigs with Pd

[Dan Wilcox]

I will be working on a gumstix or beagleboard setup on the fall for robotcowboy 
and should have my embedded pd scripting/software environment and software 
available for download.  I've found a number of guides on running Ubuntu on 
both of these platforms and would appreciate any info you have on compiling pd, 
etc.

Re: [PD] Gigs with Pd

[Ricardo Lameiro]

Hello list,

Well i do have in mind some ideas i want to implement with pd/hardware, one
of them is using a single board computer to run pd
without GUI, just using some little lcd screen. Maybe using a beagle board,
that features a ARM Cortex A8 that has some floating point support, with the
NEON instruction SET(I will need to recompile Pd for that).

Other than that i can also post the Hardware/Setup i used on some
performances.

The hardware list is :
Computer - Dell Studio 1737
Audio Interface - Edirol FA-101
MIDI Foot controller - Behringer FCB1010
Bassoon bocal pickup
a wireless send/receive from Sennheiser
and sometimes I use external sensors, like the wiimote, or some others
connected to an Arduino board.

Software side is:

OS: UbuntuStudio,
Driver/sound server: Jack/FFADO
and of course, Pd

I have a video of one of the performances, it was my first public
performance using RT effects and using Pd,
It is not very good, but I am looking forward to improve it.

Re: [PD] Gigs with Pd

[Pierre Massat]

What kind of documentation would you like?
I can tell you about the hardware:
- Dell D520 Laptop with Intel Core2 Duo, with Fedora 12 and the Planet CCRMA
rt kernel.
- EMU 0404 USB soundcard (2 ins 2 outs)
- A small Shure transformer to turn the balanced output of the soundcard
into an unbalanced input for the amp.
- Foot controller made off the cheapest USB analog gamepad one can find (I'd
recommend going for a higher quality, though...)

I could send you some pictures of the controller, too. As i said before i
doubt that my patch is written well enough for it to be worth sharing. Yet
i'll always be there to help if someone wants to make his own.

It would be great to see some documentation of this setup so that  
others can learn from it.  You might be interested in Pd on Android,  
iPhone, Maemo, etc. and other mobile devices.  Mobile devices are  
getting quite powerful, and they are already small.  Then you'd even

Re: [PD] Gigs with Pd

[Pierre Massat]

I like the biscuit box. The thing is that we need enough USB and/or firewire
ports for the device to be usable. I need at least two USB ports plus a
mouse to control my patches. that's why i can't use a smartphone, for
instance. Assuming that the device would be powerful enough, it'd be
pointless to use it if i can't plug in my soundcard and my controller.

@ Alexandre: I don't think there is anything very interesting to share in my
patch, as i stole most of it from the work of people here and there. I have
a simple synthesizer (using sigmund to get the pitch), a pitchshifter (thank
you, Miller Puckette!), an auto arpeggiator (using sigmund again, i capture
the different notes i want to have in the chord one by one, and they are
played back randomly by a set of tabread~), and a digital reverb (based on
freeverb).
So there is nothing very interesting at all, i m afraid.
Maybe this: i have recently found out that a frequency shifter could make a
surprisingly good phaser effect for a guitar. It's the closest i've come so
far to the old Univibe pedal that Hendrix used on songs like Machine Gun or
Hey Baby. It's quite different from the sound of an Electro Harmonix Small
Stone and its clones. It's very wet and shiny. Simply beautiful. It also
works very well on analog synth sounds (the univibe was originally created
to simulate a Leslie cabinet).
But then again, i also stole the frequency shifter from the DIY2 package
(was it made by Hardoff?).
So i'm not doing anything really amazing for the viewpoint of a resonably
proficient Pd user. The point of this post was just to say (if needed) that
Pd "sounds good" and that it is definitely stable enough to use it live
during an entire gig (provided that your patches are written well
enough...).

I quite obviously use the hid object to command my patch with my home-made
foot controller.

[PD] Gigs with Pd

[Pierre Massat]

Hello everyone!

There was a discussion not too long ago about suitability of Pd in a live
context (off the "smoother audio" thread i think). I just wanted to say that
i use Pd everytime i play a gig with my band as a super multi effects. I
have never experienced any crash in Pd, and the sound is just excellent, and
everybody keeps asking me what the hell are these pedals and this software
and how the eff do i make all these sounds, and well, i just think this is
the future. I m just hoping that sometime soon we'll have a piece of
hardware that's small and powerful enough to run Pd in realtime and I'll
have the perfect gear (perfect for me).
Just wanted to share this.

Cheers!

Pierre
