Wow, that's quite a tour, too bad I missed you in NYC, I was in Cologne. Looks like the people were having fun in the videos. I like the extensive notes on your performance rig. I'll be teaching a class, New Interfaces for Musical Expression next semester, mind if I use those notes in

[PD] Best PD+OS/Hardware combinations for low audio latency?

2008-03-30 Thread Joe Newlin
I want desperately to be able to process guitar in real time with PD. I have a Sony VAIO laptop and Edirol FA-66 Firewire soundcard. It seems that using Windows is not an option, since I get outrageously high audio latency with PD, and a search through the mail list archives suggests that the

That's because currently the background image is a file with a hard- coded path. So it'll only work if the app is called Pd-extended.app, which the release candidates will be. .hc On Mar 29, 2008, at 12:18 PM, marius schebella wrote: hi (yves), I tried to look at pdp_colorgrid, but I only

[PD] Hidden folders in PD open/save dialog

Ok, Here's another todo for Linux I am willing to solve, along with drag and drop and better desktop integration: hidden folders in the file browser. PD defaults to the home folder of the current user, which is full of hidden folders (.foldername) which are naturally listed fist. This means

Hello, did you try to reduce buffer size of your soundcard and then reduce buffer size in pd, and set pd to realtime in windows task manager? Also, did you try freebob+jackd+low-latency kernel combination in ubuntu? Joe Newlin a écrit : I want desperately to be able to process guitar in

Thanks for the reply. I'm hoping you'll help me clarify a few things. 1. this is how i start pd - does this mean selecting Startup from the File menu and typing -nosleep -rt -audiobuf 64 -jack in the Startup Flags field? Do I do this after the flags that are already there? yes, using the

Thanks for all the replies. So far, in Windows: I tried setting the priority to Realtime in the Task Manager and setting the buffer size to smaller in the Control Panel settings for the Edirol soundcard, but could only get the delay in PD's audio settings down to 40 ms. Anything below that

Joe, I also use an FA-66 on Ubuntu Ubuntu Studio 7.10. There are many others using this combination. Although the firewire interfaces don't work straight out of the box, the required procedures are available in the Ubuntu forums. From what I've seen, techniques in reducing latency under

This would be a Good Thing ... I wasn't of the impression it would be easy to do though. I've been assuming that would necessitate writing, and then having to maintain, a whole new open dialog widget. If there's a smarter way to do it I'd love to know about it. cheers Miller On Sun, Mar 30,
