[PD] continuous dropouts in windows, probably memory issue
Hi, I have (as usual) an enormous patch... enormous in terms of quantity of abstractions, levels of nesting, and quantity of objects in each abstraction. Everything is carefully built in order not to waste CPU. All audio processing objects are swicthed on/off when needed, so that when everything is idle it is consuming 0% cpu; usually only few of the many existing objects are actually playing, so that I never get more than 20-30% cpu usage (on a 2.00GHz dual core, that is approx. 40-60% of a single 2GHz CPU), and only rarely that much. Also, I always avoid generating huge message trees that may cause audio dropouts. The patch occupies about 90Mb in RAM; when all the samples (audio files) are loaded, it occupies about 216Mb RAM. Now, all this used to work perfectly on machine A, and still works perfectly on machine B, where it has been tested under considerable stress and has been used on-stage a few times without a single issue. Machine A and B are almost identical (two laptops from the same vendor), Intel Core Duo 2GHz with windows XP, the only difference is machine A has 1Gb RAM while B has 2Gb RAM. They both have shitty integrated soundcards, and I have tested both with an external MOTU Ultralite Firewire with the same results. Now, since recently, on machine A the following happens: I open the patch and it initially works, but as soon as I minimize the patch window and maximize it again (or do a show desktop and then focus back on the window, or anything like that), it starts doing audio dropouts: a LOT of dropouts per second, and then it NEVER stops doing dropouts even if I don't move the window any more, and even when the patch is consuming less than 1% cpu (only playing the 500hz sinewave I use to hear audio dropouts). This happens even if I never load the samples (that is I don't resize any table and the patch doesn't occupy more than 90Mb. I have reproduced it even after reducing the patch to less than half its size and removing all tables; however, the quantity of dropouts seems to lower as the patch gets smaller, and when I leave only very few objects in the patch I get no dropouts. That's why I suspect it is somewhat related to memory usage. This laptop doesn't have a led indicating disk read/write activity (can you believe it? I'd like to see the face of the guy who designed a laptop and DECIDED that a disk activity led is unnecessary) so I cannot tell whether the system is swapping memory to/from disk when I hear dropouts; however I don't think it can be swapping indefinitely for several minutes while I'm doing nothing. I can see some memory information in window's Task Manager but it's not very illuminating... It may be reasonable to expect a few dropouts when you minimize and maximize a window full of GUI when the same patch is producing the sound, but the drop outs should stop after you stop playing around with windows and even touching the mouse and keyboard!! Also, it still happens after removing ALL gui things from the patch. Is it possible that 1Gb of RAM is just too small for running such a patch? Note that the patch only occupies around 90Mb in memory. Also, It did work without dropouts in this same machine up to little time ago, and I don't know what can have changed in my system. I had a few troyans, but I got rid of all them. Any ideas? I'm stuck.

Re: [PD] http, html and textfiles
Hallo, wolfgang schwarzenbrunner hat gesagt: // wolfgang schwarzenbrunner wrote: i am working on a little project in which websites are going to be parsed. well. i thought this might be a nice thing using the regex object from zexy... the only problem i am facing right now is that i have no idea how i could get a html file on my harddisk using pd (something like a http browsing object)... any suggestions? Yep: Don't use Pd for text processing. Pd is good at many things, but it's not good at parsing and modifying larger amounts of text. AFAIK there still is no garbage collection for unused symbols (Pd's strings), it's overcomplicated to deal with certain characters (backslashes, spaces, commas, ...) when they should not be interpreted by Pd etc. What I would recommend is to do your text processing in a different language. Many (scripting) languages that are great with text can be used inside of Pd: Lua, Python, Java, Scheme, etc. Most of these also include or can be extended easily with nice web browsing tools (CURL, Socket, system(wget) ...). In the end you can do both the browsing and all processing in one place and then only need to feed the results over to Pd in a format, Pd can handle with more elegance than it can handle large amounts of text. Of course it depends a bit on how complex your project is, so you may get away with pure Pd as well, but IMO it's a better use of Pd to externalize the text processing to a language better suited.

Re: [PD] Gem crash on Hardy
FYI on all my machines I've seen freezes when rending with NVIDIA proprietary drivers. To make em stable I've had to add the following kernel options: acpi=off noapm then its stable.

Re: [PD] continuous dropouts in windows, probably memory issue
In the Task Manager, under the Processes tab, you can get more detailed memory info by turning them on in Edit-Select Columns... You can get swap activity among other things. Oh thanks, I'll try that out and let you know what I find out. Oops, assuming you are on Windows. Yes I am. If there is a heavy GUI, then there could be a problem with a lot of communication between the pd and pd-gui processes. This is not the case. I eliminated all the GUI and the problem persists. There is really nothing going on in the patch except the oscillator playing a 500Hz sinusoid. Everything else is idle (I mean doing nothing) as far as it depends on me. Nothing is generating messages. Things are just there, and abstraction/subpatches containing dsp stuff are all switched off. If PD is doing something it is doing it on its own initiative. Also, this message is really long. It's best to include a short summary at the top, then the lengthy details later. More people will read the message then. Yes you're perfectly right. Thanks for the advice. ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] Trax - Sinusoidal Model Synthesis in Pure Data
I think a wiimote would work great, but you would have to make sure to interpolate the time-advancement (I do this for the wacom because it is usb, although it is not as crucial). The current frame being synthesized by Trax is given by a timetag, which are about 10ms apart at the original speed (although it can be faster or slower). For that matter, interpolating all the wii- parameters would probably make things sound better. As far as mappings, I have never used the wii, so I don't know. But you probably have to defined a fixed point for the beginning and end of file, as well as interpolation. that opens really some doors to new sounds. Thanks very much. Wait until I get libsms up and running in real-time... tons of doors, all leading to different places. There's lots of things I wanted to do with Trax, but it just isn't feasible using pd's control structure and the data structs alone, it seems much better to do the low-level stuff it in C and use pd as a controller. I don't like having to graph everything using Tk either, so that part will probably be moved to opengl somehow. All in due time. thanks for all the comments. I'd love to hear if people are getting it to work, having problems, making cool sounds, etc. cheers, rich ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

[PD] multiple sound cards
hi ! i just bought two cheap sound cards (Terratec Aureon 5.1 PCI) in addition to the default card on the mother board... i just want to get 6-mono input channels and 6 output channels into PD or jack... on the pure:dyne, when i set use multiple devices on OSS, i can hear the test tone on the cards' outputs... but i can capture the line-in signal only for the first one (the chipset card) but not for the new cards. i have no idea if it's just about setting PD or if it's a driver problem (i just use linux so i don't really know how to configure things...) if someone has ideas or knows tutorials... thanks a lot raphaël __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: [PD] multiple sound cards
configuring multiple sound cards in linux will depend somewhat on which version you're using. Here is some basic info for FC5 (as an example): ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/node5.html#SECTION00050800 My (meager) experience was that there might be issues with the order the cards are defined. My FC8 works fine as long as the USB card is the first (snd-card-0). -- ___ Oded Ben-Tal http://ccrma.stanford.edu/~oded [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

[PD] BBcut for pd?
Hi List! Hope everyone is well, I am interested in incorporating something similar to BBCut, by Nick Collins into my pd audio suite and use it quite a bit in Supercollider.

I don't think most of us are SuperCollider users, so I think you'll have better luck if you describe what BBCut does. .hc On Apr 28, 2008, at 8:06 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi List!
