Of course I won't deny that Linux IS better than Windows, but I am quite skeptic about the statement that it SOUNDS better. Does it, really?? In which sense? And again (as in the case of Max vs PD), is the comparison between things people do on windows vs things people do on linux, or between the same thing played on the two platforms (e.g. the same patch in PD on windows vs on linux - and OBVIOUSLY on the same machine)? Or was the discussion about which one sounds better when PRONOUNCED?

[PD] [PD-announce] SIMULTAN04 Festival - Screening - Call for entry
--- SIMULTAN04 Festival - Screening - Call for entry | www.simultan.org --- SIMULTAN04 - Video and Media Arts Festival will take place in Timisoara, Romania between May 22nd -24th 2008. Under the theme Temporary Tactics, Simultan04 explores a conflict situation, a difficult cohabitation between the independent audio-visual works and the cultural, social and political context in which they are born. Temporary Tactics wishes to highlight time and space connected speculative situations, the practice of acting and reacting, of making and creating, in the moment and in response to the stimulus of one's immediate environment. --- SIMULTAN04 is open for submissions of innovative works which that make use of technology in a creative, ingenious way or are based on a peculiar, unusual story. The video section is open to all video artists and not only, who can apply with narratives, experimental videos, animations, vj-ing movies and motion graphics. Those interested may apply with a maximum number of 2 video works, each having a duration that must not exceed 3 minutes. Terms and conditions, technical details, application form here: http://www.simultan.org/en/2008/callforentry.htm The deadline for the submission of works and applications is April 10th, 2008 (postmark) After the event, a DVD/catalogue will be published, each of the admitted participants will receive a DVD/catalogue by the end of 2008. no application fee required! For additional information please contact: Levente Kozma email: simultan[at]simultan.org, tel: +40-740.300.806 for more details please visit www.simultan.org --- a video review of SIMULTAN03 www.youtube.com/simultanfestival www.myspace.com/simultanfestival ___ PD-announce mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-announce ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] Pd sounds better than Max?
I looked for some sounds that demonstrate the difference of oscillator accuracy. All I could find are these two snips from tracks, but it's a fair comparison because; 1) Functions of Time (1996) An all Csound composition. http://www.obiwannabe.co.uk/sounds/FunctionsOfTime-track3.mp3 2) Look Ma, No hands! (2005) An all Pd composition. http://www.obiwannabe.co.uk/sounds/Nohands-short.mp3 Both use the same patch (the undulating diffraction effect). It's comparable because I translated the Csound version directly to Pd, both are 64 oscillator banks and it's clear that the Csound one sparkles while the Pd one sounds a bit muddy. It would be good to do a Max vs Pd comparison of the same someday. a.

[PD] also some pd-music
Hi.
I have put a recording from yesterday's performance online. Music for
QT, the quartertone organ from the logos foundation. It's a live
recording (and video) from the first performance. Just for those
people who are interested in the things pd is used for.
About the use of pd:
Parts of the music are controled by 2 Wii's, using my own wiimote
external. The music itself is completely programmed in pd, with some
extra externals i'll put online when I've dome some more work on them.
For example all rhythms come out of a database with things I played on
piano. PD selects the rhythms during performance according to several
rules.
The first minute of the performance is not audible on this movie. The
wii's adjust the speed of the organ's windblower, but that's a bit too
silent for my video-camera. (The audience could hear it though.)
Last remark: it's quartertone music, it's not out of tune. :-)
Find it at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwrcH8U2dR8
Regards,
yvan
