[PD] "OuterSpace" - an ambient sound generator for PD

[alberto.zin at poste.it]

Hi ~Kyle, Andy, List,

First of all, thanks for giving a look to OuterSpace.
By a very famous law (Murphy) I uploaded the "CPU hungry"
version of OuterSpace, which still had graphical bangs etc.
The zip file which is now in 

https://puredata.info/Members/AlbertoZ/

shall be lighter. Just to give a reference,
using the first preset with the plain PD gui eats 20-25%
of my AMD 2400+ processor, both on Win or Linux.
Gripd gui is a bit more heavy, like 40%.
To answer to Andy: yes, switch~ is implemented in each voice
as long as you reduce the polyphony parameter. You should
note the CPU load going down as you decrease it. Don't know
if it still enough for cooling you CPU :-)

give OS another look !
