I’m working on an installation which will make use of 4 pisound raspi with 4 puredata made sequencers sending midi notes and midi cc via the midi out of the pisound.
My problem is that I wanted to have them synchronized by using the abl_link~ external, but I couldn’t manage to install them.
Is there a specific method to install them so the patches will work right away and be in sync when starting them with the button ?
Is there a tutorial anywhere ?
I use the basic raspi system, an up to date pure data and pisound…
Hey! I just tried installing abl_link~ external for armv7 via deken, and it seems to work on my Raspberry Pi 3. I had to untick the ‘Hide foreign architectures?’ box for the plugin to be shown, see the attached screenshot. If you are using Raspberry Pi 2 or older, then armv7 might not work.
it shows that my problem might be worst than I thought: I don’t have that preferences button on my dekken window… and I can’t update dekken to your version.
my understanding of all the linux stuff is too limited, so I’ll come back later on this post after doing a bit of linux homework.
Sorry, I am using PD 0.49 version, we’ll share a build of it for Raspberry Pi with you soon
Anyway, I tried the same with 0.47 - I was able to get the armv7 version through the external finder as well, and it installed successfully.
Try installing the plugin while running as root - it will then install it to /usr/lib/pd/extra which is shared with all system users. Close all PD windows and start it by executing sudo puredata command, then go through with the install.
