    @ionicle I agree with oid....... windows wish is not great.
    To make up for my bad post above....... here is your patch using abstractions...... seqo.zip
    It automatically saves your patterns, and you can easily add more drum sounds without the screen becoming cluttered.
    You might find it hard to understand how the abstractions work. There is some help for that here...... https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/9774/pure-data-noob and then especially further down that thread... here....https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/9774/pure-data-noob/4
    Once you understand the use of abstractions you will be able to build patches faster and more easily..!

    @oid My mistake....... opened in extended by double-clicking..... so no tempo message for [metro].
    I thought it was trying to run rather fast........

    @ionicle Welcome to the forum...!
    Stopping the [metro 10] that is banging [snapshot~] seems to relax Pd.
    I was having trouble even editing your patch on my I7 laptop, even with DSP turned off.
    I modified this part so that it does not run unless you start the metro...

    Here is your patch with the change made.......
    sequ.zip

    I also changed the counter...... as at some point the number going into [%16] would become very large.
    You need to keep the [count] object in the same folder as your sequencer. It is what we call an abstraction.... you can use it many times..... like a sub-routine.
    I hope that helps get you going again with your patch.
    David..

    @brendanmac You need (in vanilla) to use [oscformat] to send a properly formatted osc message through [netsend], and [oscparse] to "decode" a received osc message from [netreceive].
    A float as part of the message address can cause problems though, as it should contain only symbols
    Here is a little help...... vanilla osc.zip
    Or you can use the MrPeach library, which is a little easier.

    @ddw_music [pix_colormatrix] will pass just one colour or a combination set by a 4x4 matrix, and then [pix_grey] will convert the output to greyscale, but you will need to use it 4 times (one for each colour + alpha).

    @Aliam.Sigsaly That's good news.
    And you have prompted me to read about Plugdata and VST's.....!

    @Aliam.Sigsaly So Pd crashes instantly with no messages to its console if Plugdata is running..
    But if you start Pd first and then Plugdata they both run until you start the clock, and then Pd crashes.

    Pd can freeze due to audio problems even when dsp is off.
    Is Pd set to use the same audio pins as plugdata? It might be freezing because it cannot access them.

    Or Pd tries to use the same port as Plugdata to connect to its Gui, but it should move automatically to another.

    You might be able to use Microsoft Sysinternals to see what is happening.
    Plugdata is pure data with a different Gui program, and so if you have common paths set for the 2 programs they could try to load incorrect files. I don't know to what extent they use the same resources, but windows should keep their access separate.

    Out of interest, what is your reason for running 2 instances of Pd?

    @Aliam.Sigsaly I cannot read the patch in the video but it looks as though a message is posted on the right side of the screen (console?) at the moment you start the clock....
    "expr divide by zero"
    which might explain the freeze.

    @atux Try this....... audio_set.pd
    Click the [audio-properties( message at the bottom of the patch when you have already set the 8 channels in the Pd menu media settings.
    Then use the message you receive in the patch to set the audio for your patch (sent to pd).

    The part on the right is just an example.

    @atux No problem...... https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/8699/artificial-intelligence-part-1-pdana

    But seriously...
    Not yet. IMHO maybe never. It needs training and has had (nearly) none (see below). ChatGPT is probably still the best engine as it has had a massive amount of language training. But 9 months ago, asked to code for Pd, It didn't even "know" what "stereo`" meant regarding a [dac~]....... https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/14373/chatgpt-to-generate-pd-patch

    It would probably conclude that there are better methods than Pd for the re-synthesis, or that you should go and throw a stone into water and record that as it will be better and easier.

    AI can be found in Pd as far back as 2013......... AI wizard.zip

    I get my fun solving problems myself, so AI doesn't interest me at all. If it ever gets to the point where it is actually intelligent (doubtful) it is likely to logically conclude that I, you, and indeed all humans, are not actually useful. I am not intelligent enough to know what that will mean for us when we have given it decision making powers, but I could guess.......
