[PD] Re: metro vs. samm~

2007-02-18 Thread Eric Lyon
If you're worried by metro's irregularity then you should use Eric Lyons' samm~ (sample accurate multiple metronomes). This is described in http://www.sarc.qub.ac.uk/~elyon/LyonPapers/SampleAccurate-Lyon-ICMC2006.pdf Note that samm~ is almost exactly as sample-accurate as Pd's metro. I tried

Cool patch, Frank. Note though that by converting the click signal from samm~ into a bang, you are rounding it to the nearest vector. Hm, I actually only used click2bang~ to be able to do measurements with [timer]. In attached patch I removed that part, so the impulses are directly recorded to

Hi Thomas, In addition to convenience, The benefits of samm~ come from its integration into a system of signal-level triggering, what exactly is the difference of samm~ compared to the long time existing iem t3 objects? t3 uses time tagged triggers, samm~ sends clicks that are not time

t3 uses time tagged triggers, samm~ sends clicks that are not time tagged. I see, are there other advantages (cpu-wise maybe)? Since these periodic clicks could also be generated with t3-based abstractions. If anything I would expect t3 to be more cpu-efficient, but the CPU usage of samm~

With all this talk, it would be interesting to actually get a copy of these externals to try them out. Are these posted somewhere? Thanks, http://www.sarc.qub.ac.uk/~elyon/LyonSoftware/Pd/ I haven't officially announced them yet since I've only compiled and tested on Macintosh (i86 and ppc)

I sympathize - what about the fftease package? I don't know anything about it but it may have something like you described if I remember correctly. I was really screwed on understanding FFT until I looked at the VASP examples and then it made a little sense. The wonderful thing about Pd
