I have also successfully downloaded and installed ml-lib via Deken on pd-0.49.1 64bit macOS 10.13.6.

Great work for getting this on Deken, @jamiebullock. I haven't had chance to try it out, but I'm very much looking forward to doing so.

This looks fantastic! I can't wait to experiment with XOD.

Here's a patch that I used to parse incoming data from ROLI's Lightpad Block. It's simply reassigning the MIDI channel number to a voice number by prepending the values in a list with it. It handles note, cc, bend and aftertouch messages.

The patch is rudimentary, but it might be of some help.

@mod This is very nice! I can see a lot of applications beyond the saturation patch, so will definitely be playing around with this. Thanks!

Wow! This is beautiful @schafferdavid. Are you using glsl to manipulate the images? Do you know of any good resources for learning how to write shaders etc for GEM? I'm finding it quite impenetrable, but really want to explore it.

@lead @anibalzorrilla Thanks! Glad you've found the patch useful! I'll be posting more when I get round to it!

So, I've updated the patch. I've approached it a little more theoretically and implemented some upsampling, butterworth filters, and changed the transfer function in the table to retain wave phase information fidelity (better) and generally produce a "smoother" sounding saturation effect.

As with before, play with it, hack it, enjoy!

Hi Folks!
I've created a saturation/overdrive effect. It's based on Miller's E05.Chebychev example in Pd, and I've "tuned" it by ear through experimenting with different transfer functions. It's cheap and dirty, but does the job!

Play with it, hack it, enjoy! All feedback welcome!

Ben Saylor's "bsaylor" library is what you need (search for it with deken). The particular object you'll need is the "partconv~" object.

Hi Sistaroo!

You should also take a look at Cheetomoskeeto's YouTube tutorials. They're excellent - I point my own students towards them. There's also some stuff on using GEM - might be of interest if you're a visual artist

@formuls And if anyone's interested, you can stream/download for free the EPs from: https://formuls.bandcamp.com

Enjoy!

Hi All!

To celebrate the digital release of my two EPs entryiseasierthantheexit_entry and entryiseasierthantheexit_exit, I have released a video of a live improvisation using the formuls algo-synth: a collection of subtractive and additive synthesis patches, slicers and sequences, all controlled wirelessly with touchscreen interfaces. A sneak peek at what to expect from the EPs, this live performance sees the algo-synth produce ambient and glitchy sounds that emerge and evolve through time.

Enjoy!
