Hey.
Is it possible to tell PD to compute Audio when it starts as a default. And one step further, is it possible to start PD with a certain Patch when booting my system. Depending on the solution i would use mac or PC to achieve this......

Sth. Like BOOT SYSTEM - RUN PD - COMPUTE AUDIO - CREATE GEMWIN - RENDER .....
THX

using [dsp] inside your patch, or starting pd with this argument:
$ pd -send "; pd dsp 1" yourpatch.pd

bye

you can do it with startup flags.

i think it's

-dsp 1
-open /path/filename.pd

i may be wrong, but i have seen it done like that a few months ago by a programmer friend.

[edit] i just checked and i was wrong, of course.

mhh, -dsp 1 does not work on my machine. by the way, i posted an answer to this thread some hours ago - where is it gone? strange things happen....

easy way to load a patch.

in startup. just add the patch path and filename. eg, mine was /home/mpi/Desktop/testme.pd
click 'apply' and 'ok'

next time you load pd, that patch will be loaded.

toxonic, there was a double-post of this same thread. your answer will still be there in the other one.

ok, i didn't notice that!

hey.
thx for the help....
after trying every combination.... finally -open ./mypatch.pd worked fine on my mac......sorry for the confusion with the 2nd thread.....
