Hello.

Being a longtime krautrock and drone fan, i fancy the idea of developing a realtime cosmic-meditation-music-machine based on Pd. I don't really know much about Pd, i'm just a beginner and have no problem about starting by using patches other people made. Right now i must confess this is just a fetishist idea based on the image above.

Now seriously:
I owe a mac and no midi interface at all. What hardware do i need to start with?
I suppose i would need loads of knobs and faders. I welcome ideas or pointers, so i can find the right place in the cosmos to begin with.

hello

i'm on a macbook and i'm having trouble with midi (noteout doesn't work. testtone.pd doesn't either). and yes, "compute audio" is on. noteout used to work, both on puredata and also max/msp (which i don't have right now).
which steps should i follow to figure where the problem is? additionally, is there a reset for os x midi settings or something?

Thanks in advance

ok i retried a solution i already tried (simplesynth) and made it in preferences > midi settings, output device as simplesynth

Perfect. Thank you

Hey people,

Could someone upload the percolate file for a Macbook intel? The one that bystrano uploaded is out of date already. Thanks in advance.
