Re: [PD] Bad sound quality when playing .wav file during a GEM sequence
It's still the same when they are on different drives, I'm afraid. It's only jumpy and glitchy when the GEM window is open but that's necessary so... Is there any way for PD to trigger an action in an external program? So, have the soundfile in Audacity, for example, and have PD trigger it to play on that? Thanks!

Run a second copy of Pd. On the Mac, option drag the Pd app to make a copy. Use netsend/netreceive to communicate between the two copies of Pd: one for GEM and one for audio.

Re: [PD] Bad sound quality when playing .wav file during a GEM sequence
Hi, Did you start a second instance of pd with the sound patch ? If you run different patch with the same instance of pd this won't make any difference than using a single patch Bests Etienne 2014-04-19 23:39 GMT+02:00 Dominic Melville dcamelvi...@gmail.com: Could it be as simple as disk access?

Could it be as simple as disk access? Reading the wav from the same drive as the image files causing the jumping and glitching? If there's any way to try playing the wav from ram in the same patch it'll show that up straight away.
