hi Peter - i remember that post. having very recently come into game audio i got myself acquainted with middleware through FMOD, and immediately thought there should be a better way to do this. i've read the posts on the goal of separating the GUI from the code, and that's what i think should happen, but doing it in Unity Free is my focus. things like not being able to implement filtering in your audio unless you pay $1500 for Unity Pro is absurd.<div>
<br></div><div>what i'm envisioning is TCP or event-based communication to an app that is using libPD. the app would have a GUI talking directly to libPD and outputting audio. vitally important to this would be the ability to dynamically create or instantiate patches or objects. i'm fairly certain this can be done in PD. can such a thing also be done with libPD?</div>
<div><br></div><div>regarding using the separate app - ideally i want something that can be used for a variety of game engines, not just Unity. if we use libPD in a Unity project, then we'd either be forced to create the GUI in Unity or have separate communication with the GUI outside of Unity. i suppose that's possible but i'd have to consider whether it's more efficient or not.</div>

It would be great if somebody figured out how to integrate libpd into<br>
Unity and then posted the code to GitHub. I'm still hoping that Henk<br>
Boom will write the blog post that he hinted at a while ago.<br>
