Hi guys
I'm pretty new to using Pure Data but I am absolutely loving it! It is a very intuitive system for code novices like myself to learn!
I recently endeavored to create a video mixer using Pure Data and GEM with an Arduino interface (please have a look at the project page located here; https://www.behance.net/gallery/16942195/VideoCaos-Visualiser-Interface) but encountered a few problems that are out of my technical knowledge to be able to debug.
The key issue that I encountered was that the current patch is too CPU intensive and tends to crash. This tends to hapen when the render chain is initiated in the wrong order or the Arduino hardware is activated.
I have attached the patch I used to run the program so if anyone would like to have a look and suggest where I could improve that would be amazing! It would be great to get this design to a point where it is stable enough to run the Arduino and Pure Data setup for live performances, so some advice would be greatly appreciated!!
FYI: the graphics computer being used is a MacBook w/ 2.26GHz processor, 4GB RAM and 155GB available HD space.
Thank you very much in advance!
