Is there something like a list of MaxMSP objects and their PD nephews and nieces or viceversa?

is there a pd patch around that converts joystick signals (i.e. flight simulator joysticks) to midi?
and if not, woud it be easy to make such a patch?

i'm expiriencing audio sutters when i trigger audisamples at a constant rate. its like sometimes my computer is thinking to slow, but its a really easy to handle patch i'm talking about so that couldn't be the problem.
i think i'm triggering the sample the wrong way letting pd searche for it ever time it has to be triggered. but i don't know how to manage the sample triggering process otherwise(i'm just new). or maybe i should somehow make some buffers in my patch. maybe its something totally else.
i attahed the patch so you can see:

(you'll have to load your own samples to hear anything).

i'm all new to pure data(allready in love and hooked), read some manuals en tutorials for about a week now and this is probably my fourth patch, so maybe i'm doing something really stupid and obvious(hope so).

i'm expiriencing these pops&clicks with everything that changes in the patch. it's hard to discribe for me in english but in this case(but happens with everything) a phasor~ melody is gong into a bpf~ wich centre frequency is randomly changed every 100ms/200 ms(it doesn't matter) now every time the center frequency is changed there is a click or pop coming thru my speakers. some louder than other.
try'd lowering the output volume wit *~ 0.5 for instance but this didn't work.

my delay time is set to 50 ms but even changing it to 500 ms doesn't change a thing.
this happens as well when using my internal soundcard as using my fasttrack pro.
im using pd40.3 extended on a 2.4ghz 2gb ram macbook pro.

i'm quite a noob when it comes to pd. could you tell me what to do? should i install the driver off the joystick to use? what goes into the input of [hid]? i don't get the object very well.

even this won't stay steady after a while and stutters:

(sorry for the upload sites uploading on the forum doesn't work)

thanks alot. changing the [bpf~] to[ vcf~] did the job!
but now i have a total different question (i'm a newbie): the [line~] object is to make smooth linear lines from one to another value right? but what does the message {$1 20( mean? (or [$1 5( or whatever)?
