  1. #PlugData folk? I am going through an iterative process of running at a wall and not managing to get passed it. I dust myself off and try again every month or three, but nothing has come of this after more than 8 months frustration.

    I *really* want to try and work out how to make a State Variable Filter from #Vanilla components so that I can make an abstraction from it and so #HeavyCompiler can work with it.

    It looks like no one has made one before that has shared it into any of the places which can be searched.

    Slop answers are not helpful and confuse things. I am aware enough to see the immediate flaws when these are presented, but this is only helping in identifying what does not work.

    Is there a #DSP person that uses either #PureData or PlugData out there who might be willing to offer some guidance?

    This is for educational purposes and any result would want to be firmly grounded in CC and preferably an open #MITlicense.

  3. reworking my random-file-sampler with new resampling function

    i think i'll make a standalone plugin with it so you can also try it

    more soon

  5. At grownup art camp, doing a little UX testing/teaching practice/hardware shakedown with #plugdata and an #ObliquePalette with some folks here!

    I’ve decided to teach future first-time tutorials with systems that make muppet sounds.

  7. @Morten Mosgaard Making a kick from scratch. I understand. For any synthesis i haven't understood i usually use an empty #Plugdata patch, then watch sthg like this and just reprogram it. #^https://www.youtube.com/shorts/t2U5hQn2z_E
    Adding noise, filters, ring modulation later can turn this into all kindsa things.
    But that's just one example.
    There's very good examples on basics of various methods of synthesis with Simon Hutchinson

  9. @trancefish cool. I use yabridge for a handful of plugins - some sound toys stuff etc.   but mostly use stock reaper plugins or FOSS stuff

    have you tried #plugdata ? it's awesome. you might find it quicker to create audio effects and synths, and maybe you wouldn't have to use "AI"

  11. God damn, this is fun.

    This is the case of an #ObliquePalette, a hardware interface to #plugdata, with the intention of building a cyberdeck for making computer art in the broadest sense of the word.

    It has eight outputs along the top that can output a control voltage of 0 to 5 volts as well as pulse width modulated signal to control servos.

    The bottom row of inputs can be manual control or voltage control meaning you can improvise all sorts of input devices.

  13. #westernmasselectronics is back after being slushed out last month!

    Third Entity is great. Groovebox jam full of samples and insightful parody.

    I'll be playing, too, probably workshopping my current instrument, a #plugdata patch controlled by an #ObliquePalette to control overlapping samples, building extremely complex timbres that encourage auditory hallucination.

    You should come! March 29 at The Quarters in Hadley, MA!

  15. @GabeMoralesVR
    We got a C64 in 1985? And then Mac Plus in 1987, which introduced me to HyperCard. My dad could see there was something good through that little window but couldn’t figure out how to get at it. But he admired that I could.

    Got to college and my computer science/AI prof loved it as much as I. Taught a course in it.

    These days I grudgingly use C but scratch my HC itch with #plugdata and write C for microcontrollers that it talks with. Dad remains boggled but supportive.

  17. Knocked an item off the #ObliquePalette to do list: auto polling to figure out where it is on the USB bus!

    Now, weirdly, it finds it, then SOMETIMES connects, and SOMETIMES drops from its usual sample rate of ~700Hz down to ~3Hz.

    I'm pretty confident that I put some sort of "check to see if I'm already connected" logic into the #plugdata patch in the wrong place, but there's nothing as frustrating as an intermittent error, so right now it's working great because I'm trying to find the bug.

  19. I’m so happy about the enthusiasm people have for #plugdata . Version 0.9.3 was just released, and it is getting TIGHT.

  21. @amedee_de_murcia @tokinogake such a shame. I knew something like this would happen sooner or later and that Discord wouldn't stay the friendly free-to-use platform forever. Still a shame about all these cool communities there that I used for discovering music, production techniques etc.: glitch.cool, dismissyourself, luxcache (though this one wasn't very active anymore), the library, #puredata / #plugdata,...
    Hope they gonna move on to something else.

  23. Just made a recording I’m really proud of. I’m really enjoying being able to explore the analog inputs that the #ObliquePalette gives me in #plugdata .

    I haven’t hooked them up to external modular gear yet. That’s next.

    Still gotta optimize for sample rate, but it’s already fun to play with!

    Shown: me playing it with #westernmasselectronics last week! Recording is coming, but the track I just did is basically the same as my set that night, but 3x the length and with a few refinements.

  25. Working on this again. A diy wireless, small sensor for dance/movement. To trigger interactive compositions with movements. So much fun (even though for now it's only triggering one chord 😂) #plugdata #puredata #arduino

  27. Today, I got past the mysterious technical problem I’ve been having with the #ObliquePalette and I’m back to building a creative technology out of and for the propagation of hope.

    The Oblique Palette asserts that computers are for you to explore new regions of human creativity.

    Livepatch in #plugdata. Control with weird controllers or
    #eurorack modules.

    Send out sound or CV from your patch to other modules and your mad science electronics.

    Make it dance with the servo outputs.

  29. Takumi Ogata just published this #daisysynth patch for #plugdata and its Heavy compiler to build a hardware granular
    synthesizer.

    I’ve been wanting to build a live looping instrument that does this.

    But I’ve also been thinking of granularizing a wavetable in case that project was going to be simple enough that I’d just finish it.

    Gonna try to do the easy, simple thing first, like I tell my students.

  31. I went to take a picture of the back of the #ObliquePalette prototype 0.5.5 and it came out like this. So I gotta share.

    The front, in the second image shows the inputs & outputs. Analog knobs, 3.5mm jacks for Eurorack, pin headers for Arduino (or other electronics) & servos.

    (It's for turning computers into machines for making art, fucking around, and falling in love. You talk with it using the extremely powerful graphical language, #plugdata.)

  32. Do you wish computers were for you to make art with, and not just to make money for your boss's boss?

    Then you probably want in on the Oblique Palette project. Make a computer that's part of a #modularsynth that has #robot parts and is programmed with #plugdata

    Let's make the future we wanted.
