@oid wow that is beautiful. And thanks for showing using sends. Got rid of some messy cabling.

It would be nice to see that tracker thing, if you find it please let me know.

My purpose is not build a tracker but just to have this little module that I can throw in wherever I want this type of modulation function. So its basically there already.

I plan to add a loop function with nn iterations as well. Thinking about it now, that may be a bit tricky because I would need a command with two values (target line, iteration).

Do you think it would make sense to use a format like this:

loop 10 = forever loop between this line and line 10
loop 10x4 = loop 4 times between this line and line 10.

(10x4 will be a symbol, needs to be split up, x is the decimator, and then 10 and 4 needs to be made floats again)

Or could there be a better solution?

@whale-av yes that is interesting. But atm I do not see the use case for this. It seems more simple to just edit the route object(s) and resave the abs. And make sure all connections are still going to the right place.

If you look at line 9/message 9 there are two commands. If I would to separate them by comma it would be regarded as two messages and would be output as message 9 (valAdd 1)and then 10 (goto 7).

I want to be able to add an arbitrary amount of commands per message.

Using line like this will only allow me to have one or two messages but it will at least send both commands in the same message (message index 9)

What is awkward is that each command must have the same format here (variable and value).

I imagine I can have an abstraction that I just update with new commands that I create and keep it separate from the texts ("fx1" here).

@oid I will not use Hex, for convenience, and my own sanity. Its just the mode of operation that I am after.

But [text get] actually treats comma and semicolon the same way, ie end of message. The right output gives a number that indicates if the message was ended with a comma or semicolon. Since I want to keep the messages and rows in the text "synced", use the line as an index for the messages, this behavior becomes a problem. So either invent some custom separator or use [line split]. I always felt using [line split] a bit awkward but this seem to be the proper solution.

Yes thanks, it seems like [text] is optimal for this purpose.

Once I understood that I can use [list split] to separate messages it became smooth. That both comma an semicolon made it a new message posed some problems.

Hi,

I want to be able to add commands to a list and step forward through it, similar to a "channel" in a tracker style sequencer.

I figure a good way to do it is to just use [text].

Or? Could there be a better solution? Or even abstraction. The ELSE library?

All good

How can I this?

@whale-av I just found this thread https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/14551/octophonic-to-binaural and the advice to use [hoa.xxx~] from ceammc lib. Seems doable.

If it is just a matter of connecting a circle of speakers then I think I am set.

https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/14728/ambinilla-1st-order-ambisonic-panner-for-pd-vanilla seems workable too.

I receive position data over osc from unity3d so that is already working fine.

Hi,

I am doing an interactive installation and I would like to use ambisonic sound. I may be using VR too.

I use Unity3d to control sound synthesis in Pd and I can send panorama degrees of objects to Pd as you move around in the 3d world.

What solutions for this are there? Any libs that I should check out?

Time is quite short so if I can not find a simple workable solution I may have to skip it, but I rather not.

Any input is greatly appreciated!

All the best,
N.

@oid can you not just open/close a patch by some command? I would like to explore that at least.

Hi,

I am planning to use multiple configurations for an installation. I think it will be smoother for my workflow if I can switch between patches rather than settings within a patch. What options are there for this? Pros/cons? Tips?

Cheers

@ben.wes i had not have the time to test yet, but ill do it as soon as possible. Thanks for trying to solve this.

It goes into edit mode but I can not interact.

I switch between edit and performance mode all the time when I code.

Hi,
I am on mac os Monterey and pd 0-54-1.

Randomly can not edit, have to close and reopen subpatch. Happens quite freqently.

Anyone else have this problem?

Edit:

It happens with pd-0.55-0 too.

I am using [pd-mypatch vis $1( on the parent sub patches.

Cheers

@jyg Ahh, that makes sense, thanks. Upgrading to the same pd version number seemed to fix it.
