[PD] Toxy Widget img and relative paths

2007-02-13 Thread guillaume rabusseau

Hi all,

I use widget to display an image. I use Pd 0.39.2 on Windoz Xp.

I have a little problem : i cannot specify a relative path to the image, i 
must use

   [widget img img__a #src c:/Projets/aks/abs/a.gif]
and i would like to use something like [widget img img__a #src ./a.gif]

I've joined the img.wid file i use. I've found it in the demo_img.pd file.

Another question : Does someone have or know where i could find a dll of the 
image external.


Thanks
Cheers

Guillaume Rabusseau

Re: [PD] cpu issues

2007-02-13 Thread Thomas Grill

Hi Marius,
from what i now 0.39.2 is not a UB, so it will run under emulation.
You have to use a Intel-native version to achieve adequate performance.

greetings, Thomas

hi,
I am running Pd 0.39.2-extended-test7 on a macbookpro.
starting pd and doing nothing gives me 18% of cpu load!
and another problem is, when I use oggcast~ and osx falls to sleep  
mode, then later I cannot quit pd anymore. the pd process stays  
alive and it happened twice to me that after some time, when I did  
not recognize it, that process was eating up to 150%.

anybody have ideas about shutting those leaking wholes?

Hi Jared,

Welcome to the PD list!

Frank Barknecht posted a PD slicer patch a while ago. It can be found by
searching the mailing list archives for 'slicer':

Chris McCormick posted one very recently:

[PD] triangle with modulation

2007-02-13 Thread guillaume rabusseau

Hi all,

I want to make an oscillator giving a triangle signal with shape modulation, 
i.e. i want to go from a signal like |\|\|\ to a signal like /|/|/| passing 
by a common triangle (/\/\/\). I've found a tricky solution (i've joined the 
patch) but i'm not really happy with that because it makes a strange shape 
with very hard harmonics (instead of a triangle (going up and down 
smoothy) i have a jump into...)


I'm not sure this is really clear, i hope the patch will be more precise...

Thanks for any idea

Cheers

First off++: You may want to take a look at the archive as well. It
provides more almost a decade of sometimes deep Pd knowledge.

Here's a simple slicer/slice player that uses the powerful Aubio
externals for beat/transient detection:

A slicer that just slices using [bonk~] was posted recently:

http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2007-02/046855.html 

This should give you some ideas where to start.

Thank you all for your very fast response to this survey, 21 responses 
in one evening, fantastic.


The results of this survey will indeed be published as an outcome of my 
PhD, I will post a link to the paper to this list when it is written. 
As part of this work I am developing new externals for PD/Max and 
jMax(well maybe jMax) to aid in the instrument design and specifically 
the mapping process. I will post to the list when these are available.


Regarding feedback, you have a very good point, I will add a feedback 
field to the survey, but if you have already filled it in and have some 
comments on the survey they are most welcome so feel free to send them 
to me off list to [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Thanks again.

[hid] and [hidio] get the data straight from the device, so you can  
get data from multiple devices separately with no problem.  But the  
OS also gets the data and uses it to move the mouse pointer.  I know  
of no way to stop Windows from using a mouse's data from moving the  
mouse.  In GNU/Linux/XWindows, it's pretty straightforward.

Re: [PD] [OT] gallery installation sound

2007-02-13 Thread Frank Barknecht
Hallo,
Hans-Christoph Steiner hat gesagt: // Hans-Christoph Steiner wrote:

 Usually acoustic measurements are done with impulses, AFAIK.  An  
 ideal impulse actually has all frequencies in it, so it's useful for  
 that kind of thing.  Plus it's easy to differentiate between the  
 initial signal and the room effects just based on time.

Actually I think, engineers prefer to use frequency sweeps instead of
pulses nowadays. The problem with pulses is, that they are hard to get
right: You need a clean pulse and a very silent environment: 

   The main problem with using Dirac pulses in
   an acoustical measurement is that as a result of
   their very short duration and finite amplitude,
   they contain very little energy, and measure-
   ment accuracy will be limited by the signal to
   noise ratio of the equipment used and of the
   system itself. While it is possible to use Dirac
   pulses reproduced by a loudspeaker in the con-
   trolled environment of an acoustics laboratory,
   this is all but infeasible in most real life situa-
   tions, e.g. for measuring a room or concert hall,
   where there will always be background noises of
   some sort.

This is from Fons Adriaensen's LAC paper:
http://lac.zkm.de/2006/papers/lac2006_fons_adriaensen_01.pdf

Fons then explains sine sweeps as an alternative method: 

   The advantage of using a sweep is that at any
   time we produce only a single frequency, and
   any distortion introduced will consist of the har-
   monics of that frequency only. If we use a rising
   frequency sweep, the harmonics will be gener-
   ated ahead of the same frequencies appearing
   in the signal. So after deconvolution, any dis-
   tortion will appear as spurious peaks in negative
   time in the impulse response, and most of it can
   then be edited out easily.

This method's origin according to Fons is a paper by A. Farina:

  Angelo Farina. 2000. Simultanuous measurement of impulse response
  and distortion with a swept-sine technique. Audio Engineering
  Society Preprint 5093.

It is implementes in Fons' ALIKI software, that he presented at LAC2006.

  frequency sweep, the harmonics will be gener-
  ated ahead of the same frequencies appearing
  in the signal. So after deconvolution, any dis-
  tortion will appear as spurious peaks in negative
  time in the impulse response, and most of it can
  then be edited out easily.


What a great way to use an artifact of the FFT to one's advantage. Awesome!

Re: [PD] [OT] gallery installation sound

2007-02-13 Thread Georg Holzmann

Hallo!

Usually acoustic measurements are done with impulses, AFAIK.  An  
ideal impulse actually has all frequencies in it, so it's useful for  
that kind of thing.  Plus it's easy to differentiate between the  
initial signal and the room effects just based on time.


Actually I think, engineers prefer to use frequency sweeps instead of
pulses nowadays. The problem with pulses is, that they are hard to get
right: You need a clean pulse and a very silent environment: 


Well, there are also problems with swept sines of course ... ;)

Other methods are e.g.
- with MLS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_length_sequence) - I 
think there is also an mls example in the iem_tab library.
-Least Square Error methods (see system identification example in the 
adaptive library)

- with noise (more energy than in a dirac impulse)
- auto-, crosscorrelation methods
- ...

LG
Georg

Sorry...

Here is the link: http://www.mrsokkido.be/~gr/g_save.html



Hi all,

I've just finished to make a clean release of the saving system i mostly 
use. It's two abstractions (a console and an object you have to create 
for each variable (floats or symbols) to store), you can store 16 presets 
(with as many variable as you want) and save them into a file.


You will need pool, iemlib (dollarg) and zexy..

I tried to make a clear help file, i hope it will not be to hard to 
understand...


[TODO : * Allow multiple instance

As Pd-files technically are just text files, some mailers and the
mailing list archive put them into the body of the mail instead of
creating a proper attachement. Here you need to copy the code to a new
file and save it as a file with a .pd suffix like somename.pd.

Re: [PD] hid compatibility

2007-02-13 Thread Thomas Grill


The object is already working for MacOS but i haven't had time for  
Windows yet. It will be part of vibrez_pure.


Great stuff. Can one just snap stuff/objects out of the vibrez_pure  
build and add it else where?


In general, this is not possible for the objects that are special for  
vibrez_pure, because they use (at least) pd_devel features. It  
possible though for the objects from other authors that are just  
packaged with vibrez_pure.
The other way around should be perfectly possible... adding object to  
the vibrez_pure application is described in the accompanying docs.  
Please note that vibrez_pure is still under evolvement, as is the  
full vibrez. (as is pd...)


Also, apart from the wee intro text on the website, can you share  
more info on the vibrez_pure project - especially how it differs  
from the other distributions?




The intention is to provide a really optimized core distro that is  
well documented and well-tested, with usable midi and audio  
interfaces and a few other bonus externals. It's only the core of the  
larger vibrez project, but we would be happy if people find it useful  
on its own.


greetings,
Thomas

Nice work, but it seems to do not much more than the sssad-saving
system in CVS. Additionally sssad already can store lists, allows
multiple instances, is less intrusive regarding the send/receive
namespace compared to g_save and doesn't require any externals.

[PD] Gem again - combining different-sized images?

2007-02-13 Thread Chuckk Hubbard

Hi.  I'm using pix_crop to create small slivers of an image to process
with pix_pix2sig~ to play bitmaps.  I'm interested in changing the
range, however, of the visible image, so that I can change the
frequency range represented by the original image without an external
editor.
I thought to simply overlay the existing sliver on a rectangle with
the same width but different height and translation, and run
pix_pix2sig~ on the result.  Is there a way to combine two images of
different sizes, without resizing the image?

Re: Re: [PD] hid compatibility

2007-02-13 Thread martin.peach
 [hid] and [hidio] get the data straight from the device, so you can  
 get data from multiple devices separately with no problem.  But the  
 OS also gets the data and uses it to move the mouse pointer.  I know  
 of no way to stop Windows from using a mouse's data from moving the  
 mouse.  In GNU/Linux/XWindows, it's pretty straightforward.

One way is to use a serial mouse and plug it in after Windows boots. Then the 
data can be captured by pd.

 But afterall, no matter, it was a good exercise.

Yes, writing a state saving system is a really good exercise, as it
touches a lot of the deep, important parts of Pd, like execution
order, local and global scoping, abstractions, list processing etc.

I guess you will find several of your ideas realised in sssad as well,
as I saw several of the sssad idioms in your state saver. Another good
one is included in netpd.

I remember one of my very early patches, which did slicing, but it's
from May 2002. It's still available here:

in a very embarrassing way and full of execution order bugs. Don't

You could always use the linux box to interpret the WACOM tablet  data
and send it via OSC to the windows PC to use with other software if
you'd like.

 Hi all,
 it's perfectly possible to separate mouse and wacom tablet inputs,by

 The major problem is that this is can only be done by using a
 non-disclosed API. I was able to make an arrangement with wacom so that
 they gave me the relevant specs, but i'm not allowed to publish an
 object with open-source. It's possible to publish a binary one, though.
 The object is already working for MacOS but i haven't had time for
 Windows yet. It will be part of vibrez_pure.

  The extraction is easy with GridFlow (for example, [#export_list]), and

 Thank you for the answer, i'll try each of the solution to see which one
 fits best my needs. By experience will one of them be faster and more
 stable?
 By the way I compiled gridflow from cvs , but I can't load it:

 ./gridflow.pd_linux: ./gridflow.pd_linux: undefined symbol:
 _ZN9CPPExtern10m_holdnameE
 gridflow: can't load library

 I've tried with gcc4.1 and 3.4, on an ubuntu32 system. Sould I use the
 8.4 release instead of the CVS one or am I missing something ( config is
 fine and find everything it needs) ...

I'm running the latest cvs on such a system and everything look ok.  Maybe we 
can troubleshoot your installation on #dataflow (irc.freenode.net)?

[PD] hotkey scrolling within patches?

2007-02-13 Thread Rich E

Hi list,

Does anyone know of a good linux window manager that would allow me to
scroll left/right or up/down within a pd patch with the use of hotkeys?  In
Gnome and Blackbox, I can scroll up and down with the trackpad, but I really
need to be able to do left and right.

Another side question for the programmers out there; how hard do you think
it would be to add automated scrolling (such as the time cursor in daw's and
whatnot)? Maybe it is possible to write an external that controls scrolling
within a patch?

Regards,
Rich

scrolling inside PD is handled by Tk, not your window-manager. have you tried 
holding down shift while scrolling? that might do vertical

can replace the grab parametter. (as for now there is a quick hack  
in order to make this instrument work).


then , i think the tilt could be use in diferent way : by exemple
-changing the feedback of the karplus-strong loop
-having a more complex sound input (maybe remove the pmcloud object)
-changing some physical mapping parametter

This made me think of the next step.  Right now I have a synth that  
is producing interesting sounds, and I know I want to play with a  
tablet.  So now I have to build a good mapping.  Since I have been  
working on the synth, I am thinking very much in terms of the synth's  
parameters, which does not generally lead to a good mapping, IMHO.


Any ideas about how to go about separating oneself from the synth  
parameters and start shaping things in terms of an instrument?  I am  
trying to think of ways in which software would help this process.   
We have a nice collection of useful objects for when you know what  
you want to do, I guess I am thinking of what objects would be useful  
in assisting the processing of exploring.

Re: [PD] puredatabase

2007-02-13 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner


Since we are talking about trying to get as many people involved in  
the documentation process as possible, it should be as  
straightforward as possible for Pd people to do it.  If each chunk of  
meta data is a Pd selector series, where the selector defines the  
type of meta data, and the rest is the data, then we have an easy to  
understand and parse format.


For example: [keywords sound oscillator( would be a useful chunk of  
meta data for [osc~].  This format could easily be parsed in Pd  
itself using no externals (unlike XML), and it is also easy to parse  
it with perl, python, etc. to generate XML, or whatever.

One interesting and challenging enough problem that already exists

make sure that help/tutorial/exmaple patches that depend on certain
abstractions and externals will always load.

This is a dependency issue not dissimilar to the pakage management  
needed

in something like the Debian apt repository system. It may be possible
to tag each resource with its minimum version and libraries needed,  
or it
might be better to hold multiple verions of the same resource and  
be able

to browse by platform and current Pd version.

The way I see it, Puredatabase is not just there to organise and  
structure
documentation, it is there to make maintainance as easy as  
possible. We have
an ongoing struggle to keep helpfiles up to date. One of the views,  
for
maintainers, should reflect those needs. It should be easy enough  
to use
so that anyone who spots an error or omission can quickly log in  
and make

changes Wiki style.

Hope I'm not just prattling on about issues you've already considered.
