Hey All,

I got a few questions, mods please let me know if i should split them into diff posts?

1. Does anyone have a wavetable synth that i can lookup external wavetables? (in .wav format)

2. I'd like to really test the latency/synthesis capabilities of PD, therefore, can someone point me to the BIGGEST (i.e. most intensive) pd synth around?

3. How does the Pd engine handle itself on 64bit?

Thanks so much for any answers!

Thought i had it in startup for some TouchOsc stuff a while back but obviously not.

As for the OSC message issue - here is the feedback from the dev incase anyone cares:

"the parsing and routing is already done for you. Send symbols for all the other pieces of data that this abstraction provides are listed in the ADDRESS-SPACE-SIMPLE.txt file"

i.e.:

[r oscel-1-l_elbow-x]

  [ctlout 43]

Hey All,

Im trying to setup the above (osceleton+DIlib) on a Win7 machine with pd extended.

Having a few issues;

when i load the patch i get the following errors -

pipelist
... couldn't create
unpackOSC
... couldn't create
routeOSC /lost_user /new_user /new_skel /joint
... couldn't create
udpreceive $1
... couldn't create

And another q (provided i can get the above to work);

Where in the patch can i route the OSC values of each limb (or relative movement) to a midi cc value? i cant quite figure out where to put the ctlout values!

tx so much for any input!

Hey Ponzo,

>>Are you hoping to use Pd for live performance that is synthesis heavy?<<

Thats correct - more precisely, i have a friend that wants to write some externals for us to use in a live setting, and before he begins (rather than writing/compiling as VST) he wanted to make sure the Pd engine could handle itself in that situation! Therefore i wanted some patches to test - i did use the vst~ object to test some CPU intensive plugs and they handled totally fine which is good news. Id still like to test with a huge native Pd synth however.

>>Is the WAV file in question exactly one period?<<

Thats correct, im using one of those large single cycle libraries with 1k of waveforms. Instead of using the normal shapes as oscillators, id like to load those waveforms (like Alchemy VST).

Thanks for all ur help thus far!

Thanks PonZo,

I managed to get to 20 instances without crashing and then my fingers hurt so i stopped...

Do you, or anyone else, know of any externals that would be extremely CPU intensive?

Anyone else got little help for the other questions?

Tx again!
