Re: ubumenu

Are you talking about rightclick insert object kinda
thing? If so I have it implemented on my version of PD
but its an old version, I implemented a menu system
for all objects a while back but it was too much work
to keep making the changes to each new version of Pd,
if it would be included in the main distro I would do
it again? I find it useful but don't know how many
other people would. In fact perhaps it makes thing too
user friendly!

You don't need to use the command line at all in order to use Pd.  If its
running, then that's all you need. /Applications/Pure Data.app will work
just as well for starting Pd as /usr/local/bin/pd from the command line.

i recommend planetCCRMA on top of redhat 9 highly. they have good, 
detailed installation instructions on their site and are very responsive 
on their mailing list:

Re: i had a dream ...

Whats the best choice for linux PPC? Does redhat run on PPC?

Re: i had a dream ...

redhat runs on ppc. probably the easiest to start with. however, the 
wonderful PlanetCCRMA packages are made for i686 architecture, so you 
will be back to compiling your critical audio apps yourself if there 
isn't a standard Red Hat PPC package for it [such as Jack, Ardour, 
probably also no PD with Jack capabilties, etc etc].
yellowdog is specific for PPC, but i don't know much about it...
gentoo is supposed to be great for PPCs, if you have some time on your 
hands for configuration. but gentoo has a live, bootable OS cdrom for 
PPC you can download to try out first.

good luck!

You also could resize the array and remember that value somewhere.

Soundcards filter out all dc ("constant bias") on their inputs. You will
not get good measurements from unmodulated, slowly ( <10Hz) varying
signals. You could modulate the sensor signal in some way, but this
requires more analog electronics.

> am I mistaken? has anyone used this to good effect?

Yes, I've used a soundcard to sample ultrasound (sonar) receivers
directly. This is (in my case) a 40kHz modulated signal. This shifts the
demodulation from hardware to software... So 96kHz is usefull - not only
for audiophiles :)

Johannes
