Re: [PD] [helmholtz~]
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 On Feb 14, 2013, at 1:24 AM, Phil Stone pkst...@ucdavis.edu wrote: Hi Katja, I'm looking with great interest at your [helmholtz~] pitch tracking object.

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.

[PD] 9th ACM Creativity and Cognition Conference: 2nd Call for Creativity (Art/Music)
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 For the proceedings the extra pages will not be published, only the formal 2-page submission will be published.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: http://cc13.creativityandcognition.com/?page_id=43 Submission Method: Easychair Online Submission – see Submission page on the website: http://cc13.creativityandcognition.com/?page_id=179 Conference Organisation Contact: c...@easychair.org ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

It makes things worse in pd-l2ork.

Since then, I fixed netsend/receive in the core part of Pd as well but kept those for backwards compatibility purposes unaltered. ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
[PD] Changing the defaul language in 0.43
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. ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
