    The second edition of "Digital Electronics for Musicians" is out! This book is on Pd combined with the Arduino and occasionally with the Raspberry Pi for the creation of interactive musical projects. This second edition focuses on updated software, introduces the Bela, and adds a chapter on AI with the [neuralnet] object.
    It includes an introduction to Pd, an introduction to the Arduino, Linux command line for remotly controlling the Pi, wireless communication between the Arduino and the computer with the XBee modules and WiFi, and examples on embedding computers to create stand alone projects.

    Check the book here.

    As a side-note, the publisher is looking for readers to write a review on Amazon. If you're interested, DM me your email and I will forward it to the publisher. You'll get a free PDF version of the book so you can read it and then write a review. This is on a first-come first-serve basis, for a limited number of people.

    Admins, sorry for this shameless slef-plug, if you think it doesn't fit this forum, please remove.

    • New activation functions added
    • Access to the internal structure of a trained network (e.g. the latent space)
    • Storing weights and biases during training for visualization
    • Save models during training
    • Signal-rate version of the object!
    • Audio autoencoder example added!

    Binaries for Linux, Raspberry Pi 3,4,5, macOS, and Windows (thanks @ben.wes for macOS and Windows) are available through deken.

    If [scale] maps a range of values to another range, then this is possible with vanilla objects too. Check the [map] vanilla abstraction from https://github.com/alexdrymonitis/miscellaneous_abstractions that does this.

    @yannseznec you have posted the same question on Pd's mailing list. I guess you did both the list and forum simultaneously. I know that not everybody is both on the list and the forum, so I guess you were trying to reach more people this way. This though adds to the noise that already exists in these archives. I did reply to the list, so I'm not going to reply here. Please, in the future, prefer one of the two archives and only if you get no working reply in some time, move to another archive.

    Check the aoo library (audio over OSC), it's more up to date.

    I don't know how to do that, but if you want to use FFMPEG, there's an external for it, check here https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/12980/ffplay-an-implementation-of-ffmpeg-for-audio-playback-of-almost-any-media-format

    Thanks for sharing this! Note, the switchramp.pd abstraction is saved as switchRamp.pd (upper case R) but in Pd it is invoked as switchramp.pd (lower case r), so Pd can't find it. Renaming it to switchramp.pd with lower case r works.

    Not sure, but I guess you should have openFrameworks installed, which has a script to install dependencies. Do you have those? These scripts should also be available in Ofelia, in scripts/ubuntu.

    @ben-wes is right here. the delay time to execute a ramp is the last argument, first is target and second is ramp time, just like with [line~].

    No idea of the development/maintenance state of Purr Data, but PlugData, another monolith Pd variant is seriously actively developed. You might want to try that instead, unless you revert to Pd vanilla and install any externals you want through deken (Help->Find externals). IMO, that's the best option if you don't intend to use Pd as a VST plugin or want to compile your patches with heavy.
