Tried using the streamstretch~ abstraction by William Brent (http://williambrent.conflations.com/pages/research.html) recently.

However, when I loading the patch from the associated help file in pd-extended, it won't work. I get the following error messages:

 clone ./lib/streamstretch-buf-writer-abs 100 2415
... couldn't create
 text define $0-streamstretch-chord-text
... couldn't create
 text get $0-streamstretch-chord-text
... couldn't create
 text tolist $0-streamstretch-chord-text
... couldn't create
 text fromlist $0-streamstretch-chord-text
... couldn't create
 clone ./lib/streamstretch-buf-writer-abs 100 1536
... couldn't create

Tried loading the patch in Pd Vanilla and I still get error messages:

 clone ./lib/streamstretch-buf-writer-abs 100 2415
... couldn't create
 clone ./lib/streamstretch-buf-writer-abs 100 1004
... couldn't create

I'm just wondering if anyone else gets the same kinds of error messages when they try to load this abstraction.

@me-andmymonkey What version of Pd are you using? The [text] and [clone] objects are new to Pd 0.48, which I'm using and I get none of those errors.

ah, this could very well be the problem. for Pd Vanilla I was using 0.45. I'm stubbornly still using Pd-extended mainly. I really should just make the jump to the latest vanilla version though....

I've downloaded the latest version. No errors. The abstraction still isn't doing anything (i.e. making sound) but I presume it will if I tinker enough

@weightless yeap, it's working now!

@me-andmymonkey That's great. The new version of vanilla is really the same as the old one but with some added, extremely useful new objects like those ones, so I suggest you upgrade to that.

As for Pd extended, I know some people still use it but it has been discontinued, so if you enjoy the plusses it has over vanilla, I suggest you look into Purr Data https://puredata.info/downloads/purr-data, which picks up where extended left off but is much better in many ways in my opinion.

@weightless I have been looking at Purr Data but there's a few things for patches that I've made that weren't currently supported (at least last time I checked). Namely, the [pd~] object wasn't available yet and GEM wasn't supported on OSX. That might have changed recently.

@me-andmymonkey On the latest version (2.4.3) the [pd~] object works, not sure about gem though. (I'm on macOS too)
