Re: [PD] Pd internal font size inconsistency on Raspbian

Hi Jonathan, Considering the fact that IEM guis display with correct font size on Raspbian, there must be a way to do it right. The difference between IEM guis and object/message/comment is that in the first case you specify font type and size explicitly, and a choice of available types is

Maybe we should design a Pd gridfont (see http://cogsci.indiana.edu/gridfonts.html ). Every letter is just line segments connecting dots on the same standard grid, so you wouldn't need to worry about metric translation at all -- just specify the dimensions of the grid in pixels. Of course then Pd

I picked Qjackctl and defined a standard patchbay, though there's a need for an xserver now. I will switch to udev if there's a need for better performance. I'm still wondering why autoconnecting worked before if a MIDI device was already connected, but I leave it at that for the time being.

I thought the issue with dac was just about changing the block size to anything other than 64 - when it shuts down and gives the "bad vector size" warning. But yeah, it makes sense that there's a conflict issue like that. Sampling frequency needs to be at least twice the maximum frequency you >

​You're basically limited by RAM, but if you have a big dynamic patching & sinesum routine on loadbang you might have to wait a few seconds for your patch to open. Or, if you want you can do the dynamic patching once to get the patch, and the sinesum routine once as well, and save the contents of
