    @oleathlobhair When you set the input and output in the Pd Media Audio settings tab there is no longer just an apply and OK button, but also a "save all settings" which should store the setup to the registry.
    If you click that button once you are set up and working properly.....do you still have the problem when you restart Pd?

    @oleathlobhair Are you using the computer soundcard, or an external one?
    And keep an eye on https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/14966/audio-i-o-error in case a solution is posted there....

    @dvd01osclfo Using an [array] is probably not the best way to do it, but it does give you a graphical representation of the notes.
    You will need to increase the height of the array window if you put notes over 1000.... it will still work but it will look strange with bars outside the window.
    Try this..... huh-mod.zip

    You get one extra index with a value of zero, but the message to [random] ensures that it is ignored.
    That can be fixed of course..... but no more time right now......

    @blindingSlow Hello! and welcome to the forum.
    The Pd GUI is built with a program called Wish.
    Wish is a graphical shell for the Tk/Tcl programming language.

    Inside your Pd installation folder there will be a folder "tcl" that contains all the tcl scripts that build the GUI and control its behaviour. They then tell the operating system how the windows should be drawn on the screen, so commands sent within the scripts will be different depending on which os you have.
    I think pdtk_canvas.tcl does most of the work.
    A reasonable explanation is included as a comment in the .tcl files.

    There is an external.... [sys_gui] that can send commands to the tcl proc's.
    You can change the background colour by sending the command... tk_setPalette background [tk_chooseColor] ..... as a message..... into [sys_gui]

    And myname-plugin.tcl files can be made and placed in Pd search paths to modify the tcl as Pd starts.
    E.G. cordarrows-plugin.tcl which will add arrows to cords when in edit mode.

    You can permanently change the tcl...... as in PdNext.......
    Here are some of my feeble attempts..... https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/9960/tcl-for-a-rainy-day
    https://forum.pdpatchrepo.info/topic/9991/woof-a-new-window-menu-for-vanilla-tcl
    New items can be added to the Pd menu drop down choices by modifying pd/tcl/pd_menus.tcl and pd/tcl/pd_menucommands.tcl

    I am not a programmer either, but other people on the forum will be able to help you.
    David.

    @SCFan32 For standard objects the Pd menu at the top of a window.......
    Click "Help" and then "List of Objects..."
    Then right-click an object for help on its use.
    The names are fairly obvious, and they are grouped by function.
    You can copy/paste them into your patch.

    For externals it is harder. I cannot find a complete list of everything available.
    Searching "Pure Data externals"...
    or "Pure data libraries"..
    ... finds them "piecemeal".

    @rph-r If your installation can be connected to the internet, and bela can push the data to Pd, then you can re-sync without errors. [zexy/time] would work but maybe not on the bela.
    If no internet then an old phone with a free sim card and a hotspot.
    The computer would need to be set to automatically update time from an internet time server.
    Otherwise the computer time will always drift..... and by a lot even over a month..
    David.
    P.S there might be a way to get the time into the bela from a GPS module..... then you don't need the sim card........ https://forum.arduino.cc/t/time-and-date-from-gps/686778

    @jamcultur Hard to tell exactly without listening, but the delays are a little longer for 3 and 4, so should create a wider (more spacious) image...... "spread" in hardware reverberators.

    @jamcultur Yes, the 2 audio inputs are left and right.
    [pd reference] at the top right of the help file gives a bit more info.
    But [rev3~] is not an object.
    It is an abstraction, so you can open it and see exactly how it works.
    There is also a little more information inside the abstraction.

    @ddw_music If they were externals I would guess that they installed an old 32-bit (<Pd 048) but as they are abstractions they are simply not being found..... so the path...
    I have a vague recollection that you declared the path in patches a few years ago. I wonder whether recent mac's baulk at the hyphen in the path name.
    There are quite a few google results for problems with hyphens in filenames from Catalina onwards.... so maybe?... try an underscore instead...?
