On Thursday April 2nd, 18:00 there will be a pure-data workshop with Mike Moreno @TimothySchoen and I, hosted at HKU IBB-Laan, Utrecht!

The topics will be livecoding, the heavy compiler, plugdata and more.
We know it's a bit last minute, but we hope to see some of y'all there! 🇳🇱 🙂

Max has a more polished interface

We have https://plugdata.org for that

@Balwyn Nice! DSP settings don't do anything in Heavy btw, it's always running (and it's not needed for metro).

Changing to a boolean value for the toggle probably fixed it

@Balwyn Oh you need to setup special receive objects to create plugin parameters:

@Balwyn Eh?

Probably because we don't sign binaries on Windows.

Also: who still uses McAfee? o.O

I could also export it with the heavy compiler, but the effect is really silly

@Orangery You have to install plugdata and open the pd patch from there.

@Orangery oh so it only supports VST2?

Yeah plugdata only comes as VST3, LV2 and CLAP versions.

If you use compiled mode in plugdata (which uses the Heavy Compiler, as I said earlier) you can export VST2 plugins as well, but you have to make sure you use compatible objects.

@Orangery plugdata already runs as a VST3 plugin. So you can just open the script/patch inside of that.

What is heavy?

Then what do you mean with "compile"?
