[PD] PD i education

[Tom Erbe]

We are nearing the end of our Music 172 (Computer Music II) class at  
UCSD. I developed a few new PD patches to cover the main topics in  
this course (sampling/looping, filters, granular techniques, spectral  
techniques). The class blog is at

http://music.ucsd.edu/~tre/

As far as pros, it is really nice to show DSP algorithms in a graphic  
programming language, and most common techniques can be explored.  
Much better than when I used Csound to teach these things.

As for the cons, some things are difficult to show the class without  
resorting to externals (time domain convolution for example) - and  
more things (or everything) should be sample accurate (like metro,  
vline and delay).
