[PD] my-noise

[David Sabine]

Hello,

I'm still having a problem:  Pure Data makes noise on my machine.

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.

1.  The patch is very quiet.  There's a volume control so you can turn it up to here it.

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.

3.  This is all related to a previous message I wrote about noise.

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.

5.  No other software on my computer generates this problem.

I open Pure Data, I hear this noise.  I close Pure Data, the noise goes away.



Any advice would be a life-saver.
Thanks
Dave S
