  Hello Funs,

   Hello Meino,
  
   2010/7/31 meino.cra...@gmx.de
  
Hi,
   
 while fighting for a successful compilation of Pd-0.41.4-extended
 the build process falls over a certain package which I have now
 decided to exclude.
   
 Where can I disable the build and install of packages from
 Pd-extended?
   
What do you mean with packages? Building pd depends on some packages
  (as
   I recently learned for example tk8.*-dev). You can't exclude them, but
  you
   just need to install them:
  
   $ sudo apt-get install the_package_i_need
  
   If you mean libraries or objects editing Makefile might be helpful.
  
   $ nano Makefile
  
   But then I would rather build pd-0.42-5 and install the external
  libraries
   you need or listen to Hans and build his latest release candidate (I
  don't
   know where he hid the source code). 0.42-5 makes editing a little easier.
 
   I checked out pd-extended-0.42 (release code) and tried several
   times to compile/installed it but it failed due to errors, which
   are not based on missing dependencies. And finally I gave up.
 
   Now I tried the stable pd-extended release and again fall over
   packages not compiling.
 
   I am frustrated about that.
 
  I can understand.
 
 
   I think I gave it up finally.
 
  If you think you gave up and you're not sure 100% about that here are
 some possible solutions:
 
 - Quit working on it for now and wait at least until tomorrow;
 
 - Tell us what system you are running (maybe others have had the same
 problem before or have an already-built-package for your platform) 
 - write down the output of the errors;
 
 - Download pd-0.42-5 http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/software.html, install
 tk8.5-dev (if using linux) and build it (see README.txt) 
 - install the libraries you need afterwards.


 I am on Gentoo-Linux, which I freshly installed a month ago. With
 the Gentoo system I had previously I experimented with pd-overlay
 and ebuilds, which are not supported by the Gentoo crew, which tends
 to make things more complicated than easier.
 The current system has to last longer than the previous one, so I
 willl no longer unmask packages or install overlays and ebuilds
 from other sources than from the Gentoo-crew itsself.

 In case of the need to install things not supported by the
 Gentoo-crew those have to compile out-of-the-box (classical way
 of installing which only system dependency is of being on
 a linux box instead of makeing diffderences what distribution
 is used.)

 By the way: pd-extended searches for dpkg-* executables and than
 thinks of being on Debian and installs everything into /usr/bin
 instead of /usr/local/bin.
 My opinion is, that this logic is not working in every case. Gentoo
 offers dpkg-* utils also. The result is that pd-extended gets
 installed into places, which are only for ebuilds.
 (Takes me some time to figure out, whether everything wants
 to go to /usr...)
 As long as there are no official ebuilds for Gentoo, pd-extended
 should keep its fingers off /usr.
 If the distribution cannot figured out 100% surely, break the installation
 process or ask the user for help.
 The existence or not-existence of certain tools is not strong logic.

 Only my two cents, your currency may vary... ;)

 ---

 I compiled pd-0.42-5 from the link you gave me, and it
 compiles/installes well.
 Unfortunately I have no clue, how install the rest, which makes the
 now installed pd-vanilla into pd-extended...

  mcc

[PD] CPU saving strategies

2010-08-01 Thread David Schaffer
Hi there, 

   I recently built a midi CC sequencer abs. It helps me add some 
timeline-based control to my patches. But I came across a problem I never had 
to deal with before: CPU consumption. I realized I could'nt use more than four 
instances of my sequencer before the patch would become unmanageable (interface 
freezes, audio drops, and, finally... a crash) I think this is related to the 
use of large size arrays. I would be grateful if someone out there could point 
me to a better data storing/ CPU saving strategy for my sequencer, maybe data 
structures? Thanks in advance.

Re: [PD] CPU saving strategies

2010-08-01 Thread Cody Loyd
You can save some power by putting your arrays into tables so you
can't see them.  On my system, drawing graphical elements like that
takes alot of power.

comprehensive info in english.

Aim

The seminary seeks to give the participants who don't have previous
experience in programming and Live Media practice the needed theoretical and
practical knowledge and skills to feel comfortable
within the FLOSS creation environment. The classes' aim is to make the
participants able to understand and assimilate the diverse passages of the
creation process of software ad-hoc in order to be independent during the
planning and development of a FLOSS project (musical, audiovisual,
multi-media or theatre pieces) using the audiovisual language.

The workshop will be preparatory to the implementation of Live Media
performances realized by participants and presented in November 2010 at the
80 seconds International Contest.

 The problem is... the arrays HAVE to be visible AND accessible to the
 mouse, it's part of the abs. concept: you have to be able to draw your own
 graphics using the mouse.


the arrays being visible alone should't cause excessive cpu consumption, but
if you built a mechanism that refreshes the content of those (visible)
arrays, then it could happen..

i haven't seen your patch, so i can not tell you more, but, generally, using
many GUI objects at a high refreshing rate, may cause tremendous cpu
consumption, since pd lacks the option for hardware acceleration for
graphics, as i recently learned from this list.

 This is true on Ubuntu Lucid 64 bit and Debian stable 32 bit. I think

Sounds like you are missing a dependency probably a video lib, so pidip didn't 
build.  Check the debian and fedora pages for a listing.  Or scroll up and see 
which header pidip is complaining about.

 Hi,

 ok, here is something:

 From svn I downloaded the complete pd-extended sources as described.

 After starting the compilation process as described, it fails with the

 the root dir isnt correct).

Re: [PD] abstraction setting its own arguments

On Sat, 31 Jul 2010, Jonathan Wilkes wrote:


* the magical [inlet] message on loadbang is weird and will cause a
crash in winxp if you happen to remove the abstraction's inlet.


You mean you don't get the following error message ?

« error: [args hello (world a 42) *] inlet 0 method loadbang:
  can't send init-messages, because object has no [inlet] »


* sending output from [args] on loadbang is redundant when
[loadbang]-[args] is so trivial.


lots of shortcuts are trivial individually, then pile up to make a 
difference.


The problem with auto-[loadbang] in args is that [loadbang] order is a 
dangerous thing (which I forgot to think about when designing that part of 
[args]... not sure what to do with it now... a bit hard to undo).


Is there anything [args] can currently do that wouldn't be possible by 
taking an anything at its inlet?


What would be the meaning of that anything ?

you mean plugging [loadbang]-[list append $...@] into it ?... maybe it would 
work, but it would be two more objects per abstraction, too. (and it 
wouldn't be a anything. why anything ?)


Additionally, your method of using commas to separate named init values 
assumes that the pd programmer doesn't want to send commas as arguments 
(which I did want to do in my [expr] example).


I expect to add this feature whenever someone needs it :

  [args *, nocommas]

would consider commas as non-special. Also :

  [args *, nocommas, noparens]

would completely disable special parsing. But it's also possible that the 
syntax would be :


  [args *, commas 0, parens 0]

a 0/1 attribute specified without a value defaults to 1. I haven't really 
thought about a rule for what is better, negative bools (names with no 
in them) when they sound good (mainly for exceptional cases), or positive 
bools all over.


So what I'm saying is that your [args] doesn't fit my needs, and $@ 
wouldn't fit everyone's needs, but $@ + [args] + 
[other_parsers_as_needed] would fit the maximum number of needs


You know, passing [loadbang]-[list append $...@]-[args] isn't making [args]'s 
code any shorter than with an autonomous [args] as it is now.


And then, for the handling of abstractions' properties dialogues, I'm 
going to do something rather close to a list-method for [args], without 
doing it : I'm going to use [setargs] just before re-banging the [args]. 
It's the only way I can think of using [args] with an input that is not 
just the original arguments of the abstraction-instance...


without burdening the users with learning a completely different way of 
getting args every time they want to do something different with them.


I'm all for adding $@ to pd-extended, but by itself, its inclusion in 
pd-extended doesn't seem like a reason to change anything in [args] at 
all. In any case, if you feel like $@ has to be included in pd-extended, 
that's something you have to talk to Hans about.

Hello Meino,
   
2010/7/31 meino.cra...@gmx.de
   
 Hi,

  while fighting for a successful compilation of Pd-0.41.4-extended
  the build process falls over a certain package which I have now
  decided to exclude.

  Where can I disable the build and install of packages from
  Pd-extended?

 What do you mean with packages? Building pd depends on some
 packages
   (as
I recently learned for example tk8.*-dev). You can't exclude them,
 but
   you
just need to install them:
   
$ sudo apt-get install the_package_i_need
   
If you mean libraries or objects editing Makefile might be
 helpful.
   
$ nano Makefile
   
But then I would rather build pd-0.42-5 and install the external
   libraries
you need or listen to Hans and build his latest release candidate (I
   don't
know where he hid the source code). 0.42-5 makes editing a little
 easier.
  
I checked out pd-extended-0.42 (release code) and tried several
times to compile/installed it but it failed due to errors, which
are not based on missing dependencies. And finally I gave up.
  
Now I tried the stable pd-extended release and again fall over
packages not compiling.
  
I am frustrated about that.
  
   I can understand.
 
 
I think I gave it up finally.
  
   If you think you gave up and you're not sure 100% about that here are
  some possible solutions:
 
  - Quit working on it for now and wait at least until tomorrow;
 
  - Tell us what system you are running (maybe others have had the same
  problem before or have an already-built-package for your platform) 
  - write down the output of the errors;
 
  - Download pd-0.42-5 
  http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/software.htmlhttp://crca.ucsd.edu/%7Emsp/software.html,
 install
  tk8.5-dev (if using linux) and build it (see README.txt) 
  - install the libraries you need afterwards.
 

  I am on Gentoo-Linux, which I freshly installed a month ago. With
  the Gentoo system I had previously I experimented with pd-overlay
  and ebuilds, which are not supported by the Gentoo crew, which tends
  to make things more complicated than easier.
  The current system has to last longer than the previous one, so I
  willl no longer unmask packages or install overlays and ebuilds
  from other sources than from the Gentoo-crew itsself.

  In case of the need to install things not supported by the
  Gentoo-crew those have to compile out-of-the-box (classical way
  of installing which only system dependency is of being on
  a linux box instead of makeing diffderences what distribution
  is used.)

  By the way: pd-extended searches for dpkg-* executables and than
  thinks of being on Debian and installs everything into /usr/bin
  instead of /usr/local/bin.
  My opinion is, that this logic is not working in every case. Gentoo
  offers dpkg-* utils also. The result is that pd-extended gets
  installed into places, which are only for ebuilds.
  (Takes me some time to figure out, whether everything wants
  to go to /usr...)
  As long as there are no official ebuilds for Gentoo, pd-extended
  should keep its fingers off /usr.
  If the distribution cannot figured out 100% surely, break the installation
  process or ask the user for help.
  The existence or not-existence of certain tools is not strong logic.

  Only my two cents, your currency may vary... ;)

  ---

  I compiled pd-0.42-5 from the link you gave me, and it
  compiles/installes well.
  Unfortunately I have no clue, how install the rest, which makes the
  now installed pd-vanilla into pd-extended...


http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/trunk/
Here you can download several external libraries. Some may install easy,
some may not. That's why the community came up with the 'template' (also in
the externals-folder) to create a standard for libraries. Maybe in somewhere
future all libraries will install the same way.
It's a hell of a job to install all libraries pd-extended contains, but I
guess there's no need for that. Pd-extended loads a bunch of externals every
time you'll probably never use. It's easy though to have them all installed
but personally I seemed to use almost only vanilla-objects. Since I use the
same version you just installed I even know better what's available for pd.
The only disadvantage of not having pd-extended I can think of is when you
download someone else's patch and the only information you get is that all
objects are included in pd-extended.

So whether you can use it the way as described above or you

Hello,

Has anyone ever found a trick or built an object to use the value closest to
zero like [min~] does for lowest and [max~] for highest? Something like (for
two signalvalues (f and g)):

if (f  0, g  0)
  use [min~]
if (f  0, g  0)
  use [max~]
else
  set signal to 0, or value = (f + g) / 2, or some better idea one could
think of..

I was trying to shape waves out of combined functions (in this case tangent
en cotangent (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Trigonometric_functions.svg)).
Infinity doesn't sound so nice ;-).

Re: [PD] Fwd: Disabling of packages to build...

2010-08-01 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

The existing build system is definitly ugly but it does work on many systems as 
long as you have all the deps installed.  If you want to work with libs 
direcly, then use those build systems directly.

If you want to improve gentoo support, the best way right now would be to 
package the template library, then it'll be really easy to package/build all 
the libs that are based on that template.  Its a clean, well-tested standalone 
approach, and that's where pd-extended is headed.

Search puredata.info for makefile template.

Re: [PD] CPU saving strategies

On Sun, 1 Aug 2010, ypatios wrote:

the arrays being visible alone should't cause excessive cpu consumption, 
but if you built a mechanism that refreshes the content of those 
(visible) arrays, then it could happen..


Also, much of that refresh may not be visible in the Load Meter patch 
and [cputime] in general, because much of the job is NOT done in the main 
thread (nor any other threads that may be associated with [cputime]).


i haven't seen your patch, so i can not tell you more, but, generally, 
using many GUI objects at a high refreshing rate, may cause tremendous 
cpu consumption, since pd lacks the option for hardware acceleration for 
graphics, as i recently learned from this list.


Using Linux as an example, Pd uses Tk, Tk uses X11, and X11 uses hardware 
acceleration. It may just not be the same kind of hardware acceleration 
that you have in mind. OpenGL is not the only interface to what can be 
considered to be hardware acceleration. (one can make a similar argument 
about other OSes as well).


I know that Tk redraws way too many things that it shouldn't have to 
redraw, but then GL usually makes even more useless redraws than that. The 
problem is probably about HOW MANY things are being covered by the 
hardware acceleration that is in use, vs how many are still computed by 
the CPU.

Re: [PD] software license for pd general patch?

If the rythm is played like every step with no accent, no one would make 
a difference between 11:8 , 4:4, 7:16 ...


I always thought of the metric as something that happens not only with 
rythmic patterns, but also with melodic patterns. I mean that the melody 
is making another kind of rhythm. Usually, the bars are aligned with 
changes of chords and scales : the frequency and phase of the bars is 
chosen to most closely match the greatest number of chords and scales. 
That's a lot of the reason why plain 4/4 rock music is written with strong 
2nd and 4th beats, instead of shifting the whole bar system by one beat 
just so that the strong beats be numbered 1st and 3rd.


In fact even in a simple 4:4 bar, the need for a variable metronome is 
quite necessary for orchestras. Different sections don't play their 
parts at the same tempo, if you pay attention to it, technicaly a 
section would play better if the tempo is slower or higher for different 
parts, that's why there is conductor.


I don't believe that... I mean, for pieces that don't make explicit use of 
battements.


I always thought that a large part of the reason why the conductor is 
there, is because on a large stage, if musicians only listen to each 
other, they will be out of phase due to sound propagation delays, and if 
we are to be picky about it, then we need a guy in the middle to sync the 
whole thing in a non-auditive manner. (Of course, a conductor does a lot 
more than that, but that's not what I say).


(If the stage is 15 metres across, the latency between one musician at one 
end and one musician at the other end is about 44 ms...)

Re: [PD] Stabel release?

2010-08-01 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner

Pd-extended does use the pidip autoconf stuff, but it gives an error if it 
can't find a lib.  That's by design.  Pd-extended aims to rpovide the same 
pidip on all platforms, so if it cant find a lib, that's an error for 
pd-extended.

If you want to build a custom pidip build, then use its build system directly.

 ola,

 pidip still has a autoconf system which can tell you what is missing..
 unfornately not used with pd-extended, if i understood it right

Re: [PD] Gigs with Pd

2010-08-01 Thread Pierre Massat
I don't know much about this, but i'm pretty sure you can't get as low a
latency as that of Linux and Mac OS in windows. The thing is that
performance and studio doesn't mean anything per se. If you only need a
drum machine or a sequencer for your performance, then you don't really care
about latency at all. Same for recording. Latency only becomes a problem
when you need to process your sound in real time (if you want to apply an
effect on a voice for instance), or when you need to do some overdubbing
(recording a track while listening to another). For this you need a real low
latency, which implies direct access to the processor for your audio data,
and i don't think Windows allows that.

 FYI,  we have purchased some recent eeepc (I cannot tell exactly
 which, I don't have the info at hand).  It was pre-loaded with windows
 7.  I installed ubuntu loaded with the necessary libraries and pd.  I
 have experimented with running our pd patches under windows but the
 performance terrible compared to linux (even before tweaking any
 settings to improve performance).  I could run the same setup on an
 Acer Aspire One but the processing is not very intensive, in any case.
  On the other hand, I do not know how to make Windows efficient, it
 must be possible since there are so many people relying on it for
 performance and studio work.
