Last weekend I made a very basic NAM loader external: https://github.com/Wasted-Audio/PDNAM

This is still very beta, but it seems to work alright on my machine! So please test and let me know if it works

Latest builds are here: https://github.com/Wasted-Audio/PDNAM/actions/runs/24035689961

What I'd also like is some help with proper packaging for deken. I'm using pdlibbuilder right now, but I'm not sure how to get multiple architectures into a single package. Or if there are any other requirements that I'm overlooking.

Are people publishing to deken directly from CI, or is this done by hand? Right now there are separate CI builds, but I assume for deken everything has to be combined?

On Thursday April 2nd, 18:00 there will be a pure-data workshop with Mike Moreno @TimothySchoen and I, hosted at HKU IBB-Laan, Utrecht!

The topics will be livecoding, the heavy compiler, plugdata and more.
We know it's a bit last minute, but we hope to see some of y'all there! 🇳🇱 🙂

Max has a more polished interface

We have https://plugdata.org for that

@Balwyn Nice! DSP settings don't do anything in Heavy btw, it's always running (and it's not needed for metro).

Changing to a boolean value for the toggle probably fixed it

@Balwyn Oh you need to setup special receive objects to create plugin parameters:

@Balwyn Eh?

Probably because we don't sign binaries on Windows.

Also: who still uses McAfee? o.O

I could also export it with the heavy compiler, but the effect is really silly

@Orangery You have to install plugdata and open the pd patch from there.

@Orangery oh so it only supports VST2?

Yeah plugdata only comes as VST3, LV2 and CLAP versions.

If you use compiled mode in plugdata (which uses the Heavy Compiler, as I said earlier) you can export VST2 plugins as well, but you have to make sure you use compatible objects.

@Orangery plugdata already runs as a VST3 plugin. So you can just open the script/patch inside of that.
