[PD] why not Purr Data?

[hans w. koch]

i have one (relatively trivial) thing to report, where purr data saved me over pd vanilla 47-1 (64bit):
for an installation project i use an echo audiofire 12 audiointerface, which stopped working reliably in vanilla under mac osX 10.12.6 (lots of crackling, not all 12 channels sounding etc)
in purr data however it works smooth.

the patch only uses vanilla objects and some heavy fft lifting.

despite fiddling with the settings in pd vanilla, i never could figure out, what caused this behaviour.
(the machine was a quad core mini mac server from 2012)

because i enjoy mobmuplat/pd party quite a lot, i try to keep everything vanilla. 
and had zero problems running the patch in purr data.

best hans
