<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm still having a problem: Pure Data makes
noise on my machine.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've attached a very simple canvas which I made to
'synthesize' the noise that I'm experiencing. PLEASE open the patch,
listen to the noise, and help me figure out what might be causing this
problem.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1. The patch is very quiet. There's a
volume control so you can turn it up to here it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. This is my own 'synthesized'
version. I wanted to recreate the sound so that you folks can actually
hear what I'm talking about. I tried to actually record the noise, but I
can't. The sound only exists in the line-out jack (i.e. my recording
software[s] can't hear the noise.) I could record it onto a
tape...but decided to make a patch instead. There are essentially two
different noises: a) a white-noise kind of sound (synthesized in the patch by
noise~ and a bp~); and b) a buzz around midi note 59 give or take an octave --
the sound is really elusive that way and I can't tell which octave I'm
hearing.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3. This is all related to a previous message
I wrote about noise.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4. Pure Data makes this noise
continuously. Regardless of the flags I use (i.e. -noadc -nodac -resync
-noresync -audiobuf ?? -- whatever!) and regardless of whether I'm 'computing
audio' or not.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>5. No other software on my computer generates
this problem.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I open Pure Data, I hear this noise. I close
Pure Data, the noise goes away.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any advice would be a life-saver.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks</FONT></DIV>
