    Hi all,

    This feels like it must be a really simple issue, but I just can't seem to fix it by myself... I've been using PD on Windows for a long time and have never had any issues with it before. Recently, however, I loaded a patch I'd used a bunch of times before, a simple synth patch made up of oscillator objects, and instead of tones, all I got was a weird clippy electronic bug sound. I checked on the audio configuration, but all I could get from the test audio patch was the same sound. I've even tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but still get the same result. I haven't changed the audio settings at all and can't figure out why the audio, which used to work perfectly, just broke down like this. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    @whale-av It works like a charm, thanks so much! I'd tried using netsend before, but for some reason the patch made PdParty crash... I've got it all worked out now, thanks a bunch!

    Hi all,

    I know this question has been asked on the forum a lot and I've been reading through the documentation, but I just can't seem to get things working and would greatly appreciate any help.

    I'm using Pd to facilitate performance of polyrhythmic music, by having the players follow a visual metronome on their phones as they play. I've got the following patch Violoncelle.pd up and running on PdParty on my iPhone and would simply want to be able to control the number box "grille" and the toggle remotely from a patch on my computer.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Solved! The app simply didn't like "special" characters. Thanks, it works wonderfully!

    Hi,

    I've been experimenting with PdParty and can't seem to get this patch to work. Do you have any experience with the app? I've read through the documentation and can't figure out what's wrong. When I try to open up the patch in PdParty, the app just shuts down...

    Thanks for your help,

    Hi everyone,

    I'm currently writing a piece for string quartet that simultaneously uses different metronome speeds to facilitate the execution of complex polyrhythms. In order to avoid using clicktracks, which, as a performer, I find very distracting, I've written a PD patch that acts like a visual metronome, with a slider and bang indicating the speed and number boxes counting the beats of the measure and the measure numbers, so the players don't get lost. All the speed changes are automated, so I only have to give it the initial bang, and the patch takes care of the rest.

    I'm looking for a way to have the patch work on iPhone or Android, so that the players could use their phones as metronomes during the performance. There is no sound component to the patch, it's only meant as a performance aid. I could then have the players connect to a network and launch the patch with a netbang.

    I've never used PD on smartphone before, and have found the documentation available on the internet a little confusing. I'm hoping that what I want to do might actually be pretty simple, so if anybody has any idea how to just display a patch on smartphone, I would be so grateful for your help.

    Thanks in advance!
    Olivier
