I disagree. For some uses it can be very practical to use pd~ to separate audio and video. And it has advantages, like not having to care about ports being still blocked from a previous crash and other things. In order to make the pd~ process work without dsp you still need to do a loadbang [pd dsp 1(, but then you may switch dsp off again after a second or so. this technique works well. m. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
