Hi everybody I am new in this forum. Anybody using PD in Athens Greece?

It seems very lonely here.........

Hi nickj!!

I'm in Athens too, and also very glad that I found someone interested in electroacoustic music...!!!
Can you send some details about that concert?

About me, lately I'm stuck with gridflow which is G R E A T!!
I don't know anything about video and such stuff, but with a library like that, it's worth experimenting!
Try it!

Hi!
I live in Rethymno & i am student in TEI music technology & acoustics.
I use pd for electroacoustic composition & for programming. I like to create a collection of some patches. Something like GRMtools. Simple but with musical depth.
Can we talk in Greek??
Thanx

hey nick its ceri - Can may concert on Tuesday but the recon in the office its going to be great.

What exactally are you planning to do then!

I think we can talk in greek, but why?
It's supposed that anyone can understand isn't it?

Some useful patches for music composition

Hi Geonnik,

interesting project, please keep it growing!

pdlab-simpleGrain-0.2.pd: I'd provide a "loadbang" value also to the
metro time...

about pdlab:

> ~no externals, only the basic pd objects

a bit stringent (to me at least...).. :-~

> ~no sends, no receives, only local connections with cables
> ~no abstractions, only subpatches

very stringent!!! :-0 Are you sure that you'll be able to manage
complex projects with subpatches only or without sends/receive?
May I ask you why you selected this rules?

>We are a team of composers and programmers located in beatuiful city of Rethymno >(Greece:Crete island).

Lucky you...

All the best,

Alberto

Hi Alberto.
About the restrictions for abstractions, externals and sends/receive, it's matter of time to excess all this.

About the externals, i have a problem loading them (i use linux debian and there is no pd-extended// same problem in suse10.2.) I think that many users have the same problem so just for now i'll post these patches with no external.

About abstractions, i don't have any problem for now. I was thinking about a better consummation. You know, Just a single file to download! If a patch gonna be big then i will post abstractions, but for now i think it's ok.

And for the sends/receives i don't know, maybe i must do something with that in the future.
Where are you from?

Thanx!
Giorgos

Hey giorgos.

Nice patches, especially the sineSource generates nice basses.

About the externals, i think it's a good idea, since there seem to be so many distributions, and each distribution contains some externals and rules out others. So this way things work for everyone.

However, i also have doubts about the sends/receives rule. Stricktly speaking for myself, not a single patch i've written would function without them, because they all depend on a master clock which dispatches timing bangs. All my patches tap into these bang to produce their sound. But then again, i have not a single stand-alone patch anymore, which makes them harder to share.

Cheers,

Domien

Yes, i think when one instrument gonna be big enough i wil split it in abstractions, but for now i think it's ok.
I post a new upgrade of simpleGrain patch.
