which version of linux would be best for running pd? I find it runs like shite on os x and am thinking of switcing.

al3esx

is there a way is there a way to send system realtime messages out to a midi device? I want to send binary to specify the pulse is to be recieved by the midi clock. any ideas?

how do I open up 24/96 audio files with the soundfiler object and a read message? I keep on getting "bad header information". I tried using -byte 2 but I don't think im doing it properly.

how can i sync up tabread4~ objects to start at the same time. I have managed to convert bpm to hz so that i can deal with loops in terms of tempo but I cannot get multiple tabreads to start reading from the start of the sample simultaniously. I do not have any externals appart from what came with the origingal bundle.

can someone help a guy out?

how do i compile pd for macos10.2?

is it just me or is pd not a very happy program on osx. I experience frequent crashes mostly when my motu fastlane midi interface is connected. what is the best way to get a stable copy of pd running on mac 10.2.8?

im trying to use the metro object as such that i imput a bpm value instead of a ms value to determine tempo. I know that 60bpm=1000ms and 120bpm=500ms and so on but I just can't seem to figure out what the formula. could some one help me out with the math?

i have built a simple synth in pd with a very simple envelope (using the line command) my problem is that notes are being triggered twice, once when the note is pressed down and once when let go, causing the envelope to be triggered twice. what am i doing wrong?

I have been going at it till 6 in the morning for a few days now on pd here are my first patches. simple stuff based on the tutorials. Any one have any suggestions on how to beef this stuff up?

my first patch

Ok so i have just installed pd on panther, everything is up and running.

I have been wanting to learn to program for audio for a while now but I must admit I know nothing. I think I understand the concept but I want to get started on building simple patches.

can anybody suggest a good tutorial to get me started?

basically something that can guide me step by step to create some sort of noise making device.

is there a desktop gui that installs from the cd or do I have to set up a internet connection to download it? I will deffinetly get into using the terminal but I want to ease into it.

Interesting.
I visited http://www.agnula.org/ for more info and I see that there are a few applications that come bundled, but pd is not one of them. What is the learning curve like for this OS. I have never used linux before so I'm expecting to be a little bit lost until I adapt to it. Apart from pure data I have absolutely no experience programing.

is this straight up pd or did you use a sequencer?

all fat, keep em comming!!!

control click on the .app and select show package contents and try putting it in the extra folder. it worked for me for gem but it was a bit buggy.

thanks, i'll give that a try

sick!

thanks for the link. but i was just curious about compiling it myself. I have been searching around the web but I have come up empty.

you the man. although i do not quite get the logic behind the trigger objects yet the patch works. thanks

i experience this problem rarely on panther, instead my computer just crashes completly. i suspect it is due to my dual processor and perhaps pd gets confused on where to send information to be processed, but i can't know for sure. the version of tck tl i use is the latest version that is linked from this site http://www.crca.ucsd.edu/~msp/software.html

thanks, I'll try it out right now
