    Thanks for all the ideas.
    I do keep wi-fi on, so I will turn that off and as many items as I can, like bluetooth?

    The CPU load is getting up to 60%.

    As for the Activity monitor it is getting Pd is taking up more than 80% at times. I am also trying to implement a process where I turn on and off using switch~ the osc~'s. I am worried that that may not be a good idea.

    I will continue to work on it.

    As I am playing live with the additive synthesis portions of the piece am not sure I can go to 80ms delay, but I can see if that helps.

    Good morning all,
    I am working on employing additive synthesis in my new work. I am building the infrastructure of the piece and running into a problem.

    I right now have probably over 200 osc~ objects (And I would like more), freeverb~ objects, distortion objects, and other objects I have created in developing this piece.

    I am using a Pd 0.54.1 on a macOS, sample rate 48000, Delay (msec) 30, block size 64,

    The mac has a 2.6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7, Memory 16GB 2400 MH DDR4, macOS 13.6.6.

    I am getting clicking noises in the output. I am assuming I am overloading the system.

    Any thoughts and help would be appreciated.

    Hey all,
    So, what is the functional use of snake~?

    I can get the object to work if there is a direct connection to a snake~ out.

    However, I tried to use a send~ to a receive~ object with a name like test_snake, and the receive outlet only recognizes the first variable.

    Am I doing something wrong? I could see the use of this object if I could send the data to another object, but cannot think of the right object to use to send all of the channels of data.

    Oh boy. I did not do a search appropriately. Disregard. :( Sorry for wasting space.

    I am attempting to use sigmund~ to detect low frequencies.

    I am putting an osc~ to detect lowest frequencies.

    It seems sigmund~ cannot detect frequencies below 45 hertz.

    Here is the object I am using:

    sigmund~ -hop 65536

    Thank you! 1 sample. seems pretty amazing. Thanks though

    Hey all,
    Just asked a question about latency in audio processing and trying to get cpitchshift to work as best I can and have it be most effective.

    I am trying to use cpitchshift to pitch shift down an octave right now mostly and trying to do it by an octave.

    For this operation I am trying to downshift an octave using 2048 window size. In the right inlet I am sending -10.5. , , , but read on. . .

    So my questions:

    1: So, using cpitchshift I believe the variable that you put in the right inlet is the pitchshift using integers as half-steps. But it seems to be off. I tried -12 but the pitch was not an octave. Not even close. I adjusted the float to -10.5 to get approximately an octave. Any ideas? These are low notes I am trying to get. Think 98 hertz to 49 hertz, for instance.

    2: What is the latency if I am using 2048 window size? Is there a way to determine the latency?

    3: The NB quote at the end: Upwards pitch shifting is limited by the buffer size (1000ms = ca. 3 1/2 octaves at window size 4096.) What does this mean?

    4: If I am trying to get very low pitches what between 20 - 75 hertz, what buffer size should I use?

    I think that is the gist of my questions. Help. :)

    Hey all,
    Two questions:

    1: What is the latency of gain~? (It is from the else library.)

    2: How can I figure out the latency on my own?

    Any help would be very appreciated. :)

    So, an update: Yeah, the mknob was the culprit. I am now having to go through and fix other problems. Gosh it can be annoying to do updates.

    I do not update often enough to remember exactly how to do it without messing up the system. What is the best process to update externals?

    Ah. Yeah, I think I am using iemgui and moonlib objects. Thanks for the advice. Going to update them.

    53-2 is also crashing.

    Thanks. Yeah, I am looking into the problem. It seems rather odd to say the least, but I am trying to find the culprit. Does a stack trace/crash log get produced?

    I am running MacOS 10.14.6. . . Is that the problem? I have not upgraded my MacOS system lately. . . .

    Just thought of that.

    So, I updated pd to 54-1 but a patch I have crashes when opening. . . It does not in 51-4.

    Help?

    Hey all,
    Looked for an answer to this. I am starting use arrays to store lists. I would like to be able to put the array into a list. I am currently stepping through each value in the array to input into the list. Is there a faster way?

    I would think there is, but I cannot find any.

    Hey,
    This is helpful. Can you help explain how the variables work? I am trying to understand it.

    Hey all,
    My composition now for electric cello and pd is being released on Parma Recordings, Mind and Machine, Vol. V on September 23, 2023.

    In preparation for the release I am doing a couple of concerts in Chicago. I will be doing a concert at Constellation on Sunday, August 27, 2023 at 8:30pm Central. The concert will be livestreamed as well. I will be using Pd as well to accompany Cage's Lecture on Nothing. Would love to see some of you there.

    Hmmm.... iemguts is not working for me. It has been awhile since I have uploaded a library of objects.

    iemguts-0.1 was what I was trying to upload. Any ideas on why it is not working? I am on a mac. and using pd 51.4.

    Trying to use canvasselect but it cannot be found.
