I really don't know where to post, but at the end I have to admit this is a technical issue.
I'm currently running PD under OSX with an Edirol FA66, and I have two questions for you, wise men!
-- Does PD use all resources of my mac?
-- That's true that the maximum sample rate is, in PD, 48 kHz?

I've noticed that setting the audio interface on 96 kHz I hear tons of clicks coming out, even changing latency duration; do you know why?
Probably will help changing some flags at the startup, but in this my ignorance is abyssal.

Thanks wise men, have a good day

made out with my puredata suite "cuckoo 3.1"

hi, i'm a totally newby to gem and pixel#world, but i have to do this exhibit with a friend of mine in which i'll play with pd and he's drawing on his mac with a graphic tablet (actually this is only one of the ideas).

Since i'm the only one who uses PD in the duo, i ask you:

• if it's possible to draw in pd as (or quite as...) in photoshop or similar?
• or better if there is a way to connect any osX drawing program to pd?
• there's a way to draw on a live cam-capture?
• and if there is a way to communicate (like netsend/netreceive) among the laptops?

thank's a lot for any advices

I play, as the electronic guy, in "Les Tambours de Topolò", a percussion ensemble (they play only oil drums of 225 liters). Since the sound/noise is really dry and metallic, i've made this patch (which remain in the background) in order to obtain a more wet and long one. It is also created in order to play short sequences starting with the impulse coming from microphone. It is nothing more than a bonk~ (which is required), anyway i found it very useful playing with LTdT.

... some instructions are included...

have fun!

some LTdT links:

now it's a self-containing patch (sill needs bonk~)

I know you will think this is another installation junk, but is what i like, and it's totaly made in PD.

Here is my latest drum machine: it's poly-rhythmic and poly-metric. Hints and tips are welcome for debug (for example: did i properly used spigot? (it's a new entry in my knowledge)).
Anyway, i hope you'll enjoy this little patch!

i'm sorry to post another help request about this, anyway i really can't solve my problem. I've tried out everything i could read on this forum and obviously i debugged all my patch.
I want to save some presets on .txt file so i create a subpatch in witch parameters are receive-d and writed in a table. every number has his location on the table. then:

[bang (
|
[r array1]
|
[savepanel]
|
[symbol]
|
[write $1.txt (
|

and 'till here all works fine (i.e. the .txt is written well)

then i use openpanel:

[bang (
|
[r array1]
|
[savepanel]
|
[t b b s]
| | |
| [symbol]
| |
[write $1.txt (
| |
|
|
[subpatch in where all parameters are rerouted to their destination (in the same order of the previuos subpatch)]

This seems to work fine, but somewhere the parameters are correctly received somewhere only some, somewhere else not at all (i've noticed it behaves following a routine: what works will continue working and viceversa) and it's strange: i've used copy and paste.
please help me, i'm driving crazy!

great work
how do you used more wacoms? i'm so interested in...

if you move the mouse the cursor will change

probably in one of the two subpatches you use objects that are heavier than in the other (maybe like fft).
you can outlet two bangs (one per subpatch) and compare them with [timer]
