Re: [PD] [helmholtz~]

2013-02-14 Thread Simon Iten
hi phil,

what are you trying to do? do you need midi from your electric bass? or just a 
way to make a synth in pd? 
i ask because i built a gr-300 emulation for bass that works very well and with 
almost no latency. you can drive any oscillator within pd from that. it's all 
signalpath though.
ideally you would use such a thing with a hexaphonic (or quadraphonic) pickup, 
because it's monophonic. but the same is true for helmholtz i guess.

cheers,

simon

Hi,

Just send an email to the support team so that they globally blacklist
the pd mailing list (and others lists you might have) in their system.
That will prevent this problem for all LinkedIn users.

They are aware this is a PITA and react quickly to that.

Cheers,

That will tell you what libraries it expects to see and if libmp3lame 
isn't in a typical system location or in the library search path, it 
says not found

it is embedded in Pd-extended in Contents/lib


Do the libraries have different names/versions or the is it the same?


pd-extended's is : libmp3lame.0.dylib
fink's is : libmp3lame.0.0.0.dylib with a symbolic link
they look the same with otool -L but they have different sizes...

Hi, Pandora is ARM Cortex-A8, that's little endian right? What does

Re: [PD] [helmholtz~]

Hi Simon,

I've been using [sigmund~] with pretty good results, tracking the bass 
and using it to drive various things in a complex Pd setup. I'm always 
interested in alternative pitch trackers, though. I play a Steinberger 
XL, so I won't likely be carving it up to put in a hex pickup; that's 
kept me a way from Roland's approach (that plus the cost!).


I'm still quite intrigued by what you've done; do you have any 
documentation about it?


Thanks for writing,

[helmholtz~] is probably more accurate and will show you all of the pitch
fluctuations live. [sigmund~] with the argument notes is probably
preferable, if you only want one simple value per note.

 Hi list,
 
 I could make use of gpio (as output) within pd with just [textfile] :
 
 on the command-line:
 
 echo gpio17  /sys/class/gpio/export
 echo out  /sys/class/gpio/gpio17/direction
 chown charles /sys/class/gpio/gpio17/value

 [ set 1 (  [ write /sys/class/gpio/gpio17/value cr (

 works.

could I do the reverse here? I mean, use it as an input rather than an output?
would it be something like:

echo gpio17  /sys/class/gpio/import

Re: [PD] GPIO - Python (pyata) - PD ?

2013-02-14 Thread Miller Puckette
Alternatively, and perhaps a bit easier, you could grab my gpio object
from http://crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/syllabi/206.13w/index.htm - it's very 
unfinished, but basically you can use the gpio command to set the pins
up, then crank up Pd and use a |gpio| object to read or write them - it
works through the /sys/class/gpio/ mechanism and is fine for rates up to
about 1000 per second (so it's limited by Pd's scheduling resolution).

2013-02-14 Thread Andy Farnell

Fluxbox and Blackbox are what I would call recognisable as window managers
They do the basic things you expect, mouse menus, workspaces, themes, 
backgrounds
and so forth... and occupy a couple hundred kilobytes.

Actually usable as proper serious desktop WM with a bit of customisation.
Definitely appropriate for RPi or minimal systems where the standard bloatware
is just too heavy.

Re: [PD] GPIO - Python (pyata) - PD ?

2013-02-14 Thread Miller Puckette
... and oops, I see that the thread got split - on the other thread, the
solution from jack at rybn.org  (using built-in Pd objects, notably
|textfile|) also works, and is certainly the easiest way to get started.

 Alternatively, and perhaps a bit easier, you could grab my gpio object

 up, then crank up Pd and use a |gpio| object to read or write them - it
 works through the /sys/class/gpio/ mechanism and is fine for rates up to
 about 1000 per second (so it's limited by Pd's scheduling resolution).

Re: [PD] Gem and font support

What is the actual version of the pd-extended that you are using?  latest
means different things to different people.  You can find it in Help -- About 
Pd.

AFter you get the error, can you save the Pd window log and email it to this

 Definitely you don't have libftgl-dev installed.
 Install it and then ./configure + make.
 After ./configure, you can check if FTGL will be OK or not.

 All of the Debian, Ubuntu and Mac OS X build machines have libftgl-dev

[PD] [gem] Looking for an abstraction for converting textfiles in text3d string

2013-02-14 Thread Charles Goyard
Hi,

I want to display the content of a textfile on Gem. I know text3d does
linebreaks when it encounters 10 in a string message.

However, before patching this textfile-to-stringfortext3d, I wanted to
know if anyone already did that and could share ?

Thanks,

[PD] 9th ACM Creativity and Cognition Conference: 2nd Call for Creativity (Art/Music)

2013-02-14 Thread Sam Ferguson


9th ACM Creativity and Cognition Conference: 2nd Call for Creativity 
(Art/Music)

17th-20th June, 2013, Sydney, Australia.
University of Technology, Sydney

http://cc13.creativityandcognition.com

CALL FOR ARTWORKS, MUSIC, PERFORMANCES and INSTALLATIONS

Deadline for submission: 1st March, 2013
Notification: Mid April 2013

We are calling for proposals for artworks, music, performances and 
installations to be presented in conjunction with the conference.


We are seeking a wide variety of artworks related to (but not limited 
to) the conference theme of `intersections and interactions’. The 
exhibition of these works will be juried and presentation of works will 
be integrated into the conference program, in either a concert format, 
art exhibition or co-located installation, depending on available 
resources and locations.


Formal proposals should be 2 pages in SIGCHI format (see ‘Submission 
Page’), and should include the elements listed below. The 2-page text of 
these submissions will be published in the conference proceedings, but 
appendices (eg. staging diagrams, scores, large photos) should be 
included as extra pages in the same pdf, and these extra pages need not 
follow SIGCHI format. For the proceedings the extra pages will not be 
published, only the formal 2-page submission will be published. Accepted 
submissions will need to be revised based on reviews and according to 
guidelines for camera-ready publication to be sent upon notification of 
acceptance.



Please see specific requirements and full 'Call for Creativity' at:

Re: [PD] GUI overload

2013-02-14 Thread Ivica Ico Bukvic
OK, so I had several L2Ork rehearsals on new machines with this patch
applied and I can confirm that this is actually a regression. GUI in heavy
traffic situations gets visibly sluggish and falls behind, so to say. This
still leaves the only notable difference between pd-l2ork and pd that has so
far proven pd-l2ork resistant to the problems encountered below and those
have to do with the way how pd-l2ork has altered both netsend/netreceive and
also provided its own disis_netsend/receive externals that have been
reported before on this list to have fixed similar gui freeze issues...

It makes things worse in pd-l2ork. Pd-l2ork did not need it (AFAICT) in the

to make sure and my conclusion is it makes things more sluggish gui-wise.

  My worry is, I'm not sure if there's still a problem out there that the
  || -. + change fixes.  Maybe I should try to cook up a formal
definition
  of what working correctly should consist of :)

  Miller,
 
  Pd-l2ork has this fix since your original post on the PD list and I've
  yet
  to see any regressions. Many thanks for the suggestion. That said,
I've
  yet
  to understand the logic behind it ;-).
 
  P.S. I also discovered quite a while ago that netreceive had a
tendency
  to
  freeze GUI permanently, likely due to asynchronous message
 processing. I
  fixed this by enqueuing its messages and syncing them with the main PD
  loop. This has been a part of pd-l2ork for over a year without a
single
  GUI
  freeze. That said, I did encounter situations where high traffic would
  freeze GUI temporarily and then resume (albeit running now behind the
  actual timeline as the GUI would simply resume as if nothing happened,
  rather than processing all calls that have piled up since the
temporary
  freeze happened and for which time has already passed, e.g. having a
  timer
  in a score that freezes and then resumes from the moment it was stuck
  rather than adding seconds lost since such calls should've been
 enqueued
  while the freeze was in effect). This may have been in part due to
atom
  cpus being taxed to their very limits. I've yet to see whether your
  proposed fix resolves the lingering issue.
 
  HTH

  OK... I've pushed a change that seems to have fixed the
  arrays-atop-updating
  problem (at lest in the Brane example).  Not sure if I should also
  commit
  the
return (sys_domicrosleep(0, 1) || sys_poll_togui())  --- + change
  as well (somehow I think it should never be necessary to do that but
  I'm
  realizing how little I understand Pd's scheduler.)

  It seems that there are a number of issues here:
 
  * GUI objects sending every update, regardless of change (fixed)
 
  * arrays stop updating on Mac OS X (pinpointed) I just tested this

  Windows, and it looks like only Mac OS X is affected
 
  * all GUI activity stopping related to:
return (sys_domicrosleep(0, 1) || sys_poll_togui())
 
 
  * GUI objects sending updates to GUI as fast as they receive them
  even
  tho the screen will never update faster than every ~10ms.
 
  * some GUI updates send lots of raw Tcl code to be parsed, compiled,
  and
  run in realtime

  Changing sys_pollgui() did fix this, so perhaps what we are
  actually
  dealing with is two separate issues, one concerning arrays and
another
  concerning the rest of the GUI.

  I tracked down the commit that seems to be causing the problem
  that
  Porres
  reported.  I think its a totally different problem related to
  Pd-0.43's new
  portaudio implementation.  It does not affect GNU/Linux, which
  doesn't use
  protaudio.  I haven't tested it on Windows.

  OK, so I had several L2Ork rehearsals on new machines with this patch
  applied and I can confirm that this is actually a regression. GUI in
heavy
  traffic situations gets visibly sluggish and falls behind, so to say.
This
  still leaves the only notable difference between pd-l2ork and pd that
has so
  far proven pd-l2ork resistant to the problems encountered below and
 those
  have to do with the way how pd-l2ork has altered both
 netsend/netreceive and
  also provided its own disis_netsend/receive externals that have been
  reported before on this list to have fixed similar gui freeze issues...
 
 Why is it disis_netsend/receive and not simply a fixed netsend/receive?
Did
 you change the interface in some way?
 
 -Jonathan

Those have additional features (e.g. UDP broadcast, obviously operation
without gui hiccups, as well as enqueing messages and dumping them all at
once) that I implemented as separate externals before forking pd-l2ork so I
did it in a way that did not mess with the core pd. Since then, I fixed
netsend/receive in the core part of Pd as well but kept those for backwards
compatibility purposes unaltered.

[PD] Changing the defaul language in 0.43

2013-02-14 Thread rene beekman
How do I set / change the default language on both Windoze and Mac for 0.43
?
I don't have a Windoze machine myself, so can't test there, but the readme
for the Mac version does not say anything about it. There also seems to be
no setting in the preference file for this (or at least none that I could
find).

I searched the list-archives and the best instruction I found was to
delete all .msg files inside /po, which seems a bit crude to me.
Is there a more elegant way to do this?

I understand from an older discussion that the assumption was that
non-technical people were assumed to want to use Pd in their native
language. I did installs this week on about a dozen machines
and apparently they all belonged to non-technical people, even though
every single one of them runs all software on their machine in English
only... Wouldn't it be wiser to assume that whatever the language is that
the OS is running in, is also the language that people really want to use
their software in?
Just my two cents.
