<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been looking at building a real-time sampler
for a while and finally ended up (today) looking at Max/Pd. I was
originally going to use a DSP board since I had all software written for it but
the prices quoted were just ridiculous... So what can Pd do? I need a
multichannel sampler (capable of sampling any/all 16 channels of my soundcard
simultaneously without any clicktrack). Obviously I'd be looking at, at
least, editing or modifying existing code since what I describe does not exist
at the moment, but I need to make sure Pd can:-</FONT></DIV>
<DIV>(a) access the soundcard inputs/outputs (I have Midiman 10/10')</DIV>
<DIV>(b) have little or no latency (<5ms??)</DIV>
<DIV>(c) ideally have access to each sample as it arrives, so I can write a
routine in C that does the appropriate buffering/sorting</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>also, I'm not sure whether I need a Mac or whether
the Windows version would satisfy the low-latency criteria. is ASIO
compatibility available in Pd?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>any help GREATLY appreciated.</DIV>
<DIV>thanks!</DIV>
