Got stuck trying to use the input of a Digitech gnx4 midi foot controller. All midi messages it sends are sysex, and i'm on Win XP.

I can see the sysex data coming in via usb in midi-ox, but i can't get it into puredata, since sysex is not supported yet for xp.

The hid object doesn't work either, its not in the Pd version 0.40.3-extended i've got here. Are there any versions where i could find it or separate downloads of this, so i can read usb input on win xp? Maybe that way i can get the foot controller to work.

@hardoff said:

disadvantage: the phase will only be reset at the start of the next block (64 samples by default). so, for slicing, phasor~ will cut off between 1 and 64 samples from the start of the next slice. for percussion sounds with a sharp attack, this can really dull the sound.

Can you tell me where i can find more info about the restarting of the phase? I don't really understand why phase would only reset after the next block. I trust you it does, but why/howcome?
