Why do you need [env] [-100] please? Why can't I just put the signal straight into [vu]?

Ah, never mind, I see there's [cyclone/overdrive~] which does the same thing and it works fine 88 times. Thanks.

@LarsXI, I don't understand how this works. The help file for line says it takes a pair of numbers and ramps from one to the other.

But you're passing it a pair of numbers, and it changes from the current value (which the help file alleges it discards when done) to the first parameter, while using the second parameter as a duration, not a target value. How can this be?

Thanks. That's unfortunate. I tried to make my own logger object that encapsulates print but I don't really understand how creation arguments work properly

Sometimes I want to debug and see all my print statements, but most times not

Hey, I tried adding your saturator to my patch and it worked well. Then I tried adding it 88 times to my piano keys and it takes 5 seconds to play anything, which is just a bleep. This is happening even though I'm playing only one note out of 88 so it shouldn't even take up CPU.

Any ideas how to make it scale properly?

Why is it an error though? It seems very useful to me to route your final sound from various subpatches to your [dac~] using sends, rather than patch cables.

Like:

[s~ output] [s~ output] [s~ output] [s~ output]

[r output]
|
[dac~]

If you use patch cables it looks really messy

Thank you, yes, I got it to work eventually. The keyboard widget wasn't working, but fluid~ worked correctly when I sent it messages manually.

Hi, I'm on Windows, using PD vanilla or Purr Data or PD l2ork. I just want to use a soundfont in some way. Can someone explain to me how to make the fluid~ object available please? I tried typing [fluid~] in Purr Data, which according to svanya's comment should be available. But I don't know how to make it recognised. Any help appreciated

Hi, I want to create an instrument where each MIDI keyboard note is routed through a piano soundfont, then through some distortion, and finally all that gets played in reverse when the note is released.

I understand enough PD to be able to route all my notes as a whole and play them in reverse for a section of time, but can anyone explain how you route different events through different objects depending on context (like note duration, or number of notes played at the time a note was first pressed), if it's even possible?

The one on the right is also attached to the counter. I disconnected purely so the screenshot makes sense - I was trying both methods.

The counter starts at 0 (I tried reloading the patch) so I don't think resetting it will help.

Maybe metronomes just can't play that fast

I load in a .wav file, which plays the whole song correctly if I use "tabplay~ 1".

But if I connect a metronome at 44100 times a second to either
a tabread4 object to get a single sample (on the left)
or a tabplay object playing one sample at a time (on the right)
I hear nothing, and pops, respectively:

What am I doing wrong please?

Thanks! legacy_mouseclick is what I need.

I wish there were documentation for these somewhere.

I'm sending 'nopoll' or 'unpoll' then 'poll' to the MouseState object so I can change things when the user clicks but I get this error in Purr Data's console:

legacy tcl command at 473 of ../shared/hammer/gui.c: global hammergui_ispolling
legacy tcl command at 474 of ../shared/hammer/gui.c: set hammergui_ispolling 1
legacy tcl command at 475 of ../shared/hammer/gui.c: hammergui_poll

How do I fix this?

Where do we log Purr Data bugs?
The project page on github doesn't have issue tracking enabled for some reason: https://github.com/jonwwilkes/purr-data

I tried copying the help file example for soundfiler, but my soundfiler keeps outputting the sample rate of the file, not the total number of samples read, unlike the example does and the documentation says it should.

(I know the output is not the total number of samples because I've used different files and it keeps outputting 44104.)

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
