[PD] pd~ -nogui process with Gem [scopeXYZ]

[Martin Peach]

Hi Samuel,
I think you have it backwards -- you should run the audio in [pd~] as
it already has no GUI. And if you don't care about latency (it sounds
like you're using prerecorded or generated dmaterial), just increase
the audio block size until you don't get dropouts.
