Re: [PD] Raspberry Pi - Audio in and out, low latency

2013-01-23 Thread Pierre Massat
I don't know why it's working. I just hope the next update won't break that!

So -sounddev 2 should work for my card showing up as card 1 ?
Incidentally, there are only two pages that I know of on the web explaining
how to use start-up flags in the command line (
http://en.flossmanuals.net/pure-data/getting-started/starting/ and
http://puredata.info/docs/faq/commandline).  None of them mention
-soundev. Is this a new flag ?
Unless there's a better place on the web to learn about start-up flags, i
think it would be a good idea to provide more details on the community
website. I always find it frustrating when i have to spend a lot of time
figuring out how to use a command line program just because i don't know
the syntax of the arguments.

Cheers,

Pierre.

 That's great (and surprising) news... I wonder why you're getting a better
 ride from teh E-MU box than I am from the iMic but it sounds as if I should
 be digging up one like yours to try.

 I think you can just invoke 'pd -sounddev 2' to select the USB device.

yes, but only if you consider Pd-0.35 relatively new (which even i
don't :-))

i guess -sounddev is rather unknown, because the documentation only
mentions -audiodev.

the two flags are really the same, and i suggest to use -audiodev to
avoid more confusion.

on unix systems, about each and every cmdline tool has a manpage.

$ man pd

most programs i know, also accept a -h or --help argument, that
gives you another help.
Pd is a bit exclusive here, as it uses the -help syntax (but then Pd
is clever enough to give you the full help whenever it encounters an
argument it doesn't know about; so pd -h and pd --help work fine
as well).

$ pd -help


in the case of Pd, the manpage is a little neglected, but at least it
directs you to pd -help.

Hi,

thank you for your replies. Of course I know man, but honestly i didn't
bother to read it...

I did try '-audiodev 1' (my card shows up as card 1), but it didn't work.
I'll try again tonight.

Cheers,

audiodev and other device selecting options (MIDI for example) count the
devicesstarting at 1 (probably because the first OS I ran Pd on did it
that way but I don't even remember now).  invoke pd -listdev' to see what
devices Pd actually thinks it can access and how it numbers them.

[PD] Raspberry Pi - Audio in and out, low latency

2013-01-22 Thread Pierre Massat
Dear list, dear Miller,

I tried Pd on a fresh Raspbian install today. I removed pulseaudio as you
suggested. I installed Pd from the Raspbian repos (not your version).
I tried it with my USB E-MU 0404 soundcard. It worked right away. No need
to slow down the USB.
I tried with a latency in Pd of 10 ms, in X, connected to the internet, and
there was very little dropouts.
This is so promising it's scary.

Now i have one very frustrating problem : i don't know how to choose my
soundcard from the command line when starting Pd...
It shows up as Card 1, device 0 when i do aplay -l, but i don't know how
to use this information.

Cheers!
