[PD] groove machine how to: keep metro and a loop in sync
Dear list, happy new year first of all :) I wanted to ask you about something that should be simple, but might not be that much. Inspired by a talk on groove by Victor Wooten, I'm working on a patch that plays a wav loop repeatedly (drums) and then cuts the volume on the track for a certain number of beats. The interval gets larger and larger, forcing you to work on your timing and general groove feel. The patch is already working quite OK, but one thing I cannot seem to get completely right is a perfect sync between the beats which cut off the volume of the wav. I'm using a metro object set to the bpm of the loop and start both concurrently. Maybe this is just much too imprecise for what I'm trying to do.. thank you all!

[PD] Creating a drum machine with save slots
Hello list! I'm working on a drum machine to be used in a mobile game- it's a trading card game. Right now, I have a 64 step grid with 5 instruments ready (although a tad messy :D) and I can manually write patterns in by hand using toggle boxes. In every turn, the game features many different game states, like deck building, defense, attack and so on. It would be great to have a drum machine that can change beat patterns based on those states, and maybe generate fresh patterns in a controlled way. Two different problems, I know, but I was wondering first of all how you would solve the saving of patterns inside the instrument. I would basically create arrays with patterns in them, name them appropriately and then tell PD when to change to specific patterns via message. Is there a better way I'm missing? The idea is to create a very dynamic drumsound, which is closely related to what's happening on screen. We can already change the tempo and mix sounds in and out, but the real fun starts when patterns will become more flexible! Thanks for reading, any advice is greatly appreciated!

He gave a talk on the use of Pd at Electronic Arts last year. He's also interested in libpd. I'm not familiar with PS3 development, but the basic setup of libpd in a new environment is always the same. Since libpd doesn't have any dependencies, you can just drop it into your project (as long as you have a C compiler, that is). Then you wire the process callback of libpd into the audio components of your environment (if your audio environment offers a callback-driven API like JACK or PortAudio, that just takes a few lines of code). The only part that requires thought is concurrency. Chances are that the process method will be invoked on a separate thread, while control messages will come from another thread. That requires some sort of synchronization. The easiest way to do that is with mutex locks, but there are other ways if you'd rather avoid locks. Feel free to refer your developers to me if they have questions.

Re: [PD] Open midi files in PD Vanilla?
Hi all, wow, thank you so much for your answers and sorry for my late reply- been off the internet for a couple of days. I'm very happy I've found this mailing list, as I'm excited like a little kid to be able to use PD's power for a game score, but also have lots of questions marks still flying around in my head :) The Rjdj lib is indeed a treasure chest... I'm now collecting ideas as to what abstractions would be indispensable for the game composer: It would be great to create a sort of package with prebuilt mixers, synths, midi players etc. to help musicians get into writing game scores with PD more easily. Many colleagues I talk about the potential of using PD for games are sort of scared about the programming part. However, I'm sure there are many things already built in PD, which with some modifications could lend themselves well for inclusion into a Game Music 101 Bundle. Any thoughts on this? As to connecting Unity- Puredata: We'll be releasing the early version of the Unity-PD-libpd bridge on github soon- I'll let you know as soon as it's out. We've achieved sending messages from Unity to PD, but as I've heard not yet the other way around.

Did you document your experiences anywhere? I get lots of questions about Gem and libpd, and it would be great to have a resource to point people to. sadly no. but it was very easy (on linux that is). i just used the pulseaudio example: http://www.workinprogress.ca/libpd and loaded a patch that use Gem window. that's it a standalone 3d / dsp application. ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] libPD and Unity status?
Hey everyone, as some of you already know, I've started development of an Android trading card game made in Unity, using libpd and thus PD as the audio engine. I'm not a programmer, but so far, our own coder managed to integrate PD in a way to easily prototype the audio keeping pd and unity open, using the [netreceive] object to pass numbers and messages from Unity to PD. Indeed, building requires that libpd gets compiled via Xcode, instead of directly in Unity, but so far, things are running smoothly here. We're going to release this bridge we made soon as open source, and I'd be very happy to hear if someone is interested and has any advice/suggestions! As a game composer, the thought of being able to utilize PD is like jumping from cave drawings to the latest graphic tablet :) I'm very excited about the opportunity. Talk to you soon, Filippo p.s. Hi Scott, good to see you're on the list, too! :) Filippo Beck Peccoz Game Audio www.fbpsound.com Twitter: @fbpsound Skype: fbpsound Mobile: +49-(0)1520-4004143 On Aug 12, 2012, at 1:56 AM, Peter Brinkmann wrote: I hope that it won't be necessary to do this in two steps, prototyping with Pd and deployment with libpd; that would mean discarding one of the strengths of libpd (here's an old blog post on the matter: http://nettoyeur.noisepages.com/2011/02/libpd-workflow-prototyping-and-production/). It would be great if somebody figured out how to integrate libpd into Unity and then posted the code to GitHub. I'm still hoping that Henk Boom will write the blog post that he hinted at a while ago.

Looney scottrloo...@gmail.com wrote: i think the answer at the moment is not to use libPD when running Unity live in a prototyping designing fashion, but rather instead communicate messages via TCP to PD itself, and let PD do the work directly. then when building the iOS project, you adjust the code in Xcode to use libPD for the audio output. that's the tricky part. i think that could work for now. it becomes a lot more complex to set simple audio sources, but perhaps there could be a mixture going on. i'll probably take further discussion off list as it would not relate as much to PD but more to Unity. scott On Sat, Aug 11, 2012 at 8:50 AM, patrick pured...@11h11.com wrote: hi Scott, it's somewhat working for me on Windows, but only when using the audio.clip.GetData / SetData. right now i am trying to use the OnAudioFilterRead() but it's glitchy (i can hear pd running but it's mostly noise). you can see an attempt here: http://goo.gl/BWdo4 here's my github: https://github.com/patricksebastien/libpd4unity OnAudioFilterRead(): http://goo.gl/WE2Xx keep us updated! ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
[PD] Open midi files in PD Vanilla?
Hi list, copying here a puredata forum post which remained unanswered- hope someone can help :) after searching around the forums and the net I decided to post this question here.. I'm using PD as the audio engine for a mobile game (using libpd, and therefore only Vanilla objects). This is very exciting, and I'm exploring all the possibilities for composition and realtime sound generation. One big thing I wanted to include is the possibility of reading midi files inside the patch, and pipe the data to envelopes and oscillators accordingly. Extended apparently has the seq object, but how about Vanilla? Is there a way to import a .mid file into a patch? Thank you all for helping a greenhorn out :=) Filippo___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
