you will need to specify paths to subdirectories inside your extra folder too. ie, you will need to add C:\music\pd-ext40.3\extra\bassemu ___ PD-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

i just did a simple load test on [sqrt~], which the documentation states is a 'fast, approximate algorithm'... i made: [sig~ 5] | [sqrt~] and copied that dozens of times with only a small jump in cpu usage. is it the cpu usage that's the problem? or something else?

Well, why couldn't Pd be as clean, processors are fast enough these days, and one could always crank up the sample rates of their DSP blocks. Isn't the internal resolution at least 32bit anyway (is it 64bit under any circumstances?) cheers, ~brandon On Mar 8, 2008, at 4:25 PM, Andy

You can already do that by setting the sample rate as high or low as your hardware will support and using the [block~] object to set the control rate to the resolution you want. It would be interesting to try to build pd using doubles instead of floats, but it would necessitate changing the

Most Pd objects (externals) use t_sample to define what gets passed to input and output. At compilation time, the externals code includes m_pd.h, which defines t_sample as a float. Which makes sense on 32-bit processors--Pd for 64-bit processors could potentially redefine t_sample as a double,
