Remork

Remork because i'm overly fussy about details

I understand ! I spend to much time with that ! 🙂

Remork so i tend to treat them individually

I was exactly thinking to do the same.

About [rescale]: because the patch use the [brown] object, which send by default 0-127 values.
`Help' file say: "By default, [rescale] rescales MIDI input values from 0 to 127 (including floats) into another range of values (0-1 by default). You can also set an exponential factor (1 by default - linear). All these parameters can be changed by arguments."
So I don't know how to replace it easily by another object/calculation, but sure it can be done.

        just divide or multiply to your target value?
        i would think, divide (0 - 127) by 127 to get (0 - 1)..
        or multiply by 7.88 to get (0 - 1000), approx..

        and it's easy enough to add an offset: multiply (0-127) by 7.8 to get (0 - 990), then add 10 to get (10 - 1000).
        i don't think it's more complex than that?

          Sorry, perhaps i'm not focus enough, but yes, it's easy to convert a 0-127 range to another stable one, but in the ATTAC506, the destination range is a variable one, with variable and independant min and max values, and the [rescale] object make a good job for this.

            oh yeah absolutely
            i'm probably just trying to get everything into Pd Vanilla hahah
            force of habit, sorry!

              Remork
              Good point.
              I'll try to take the time to replace the [rescale] object by a working [expr min_value + ((max_value - min_value)/127) * incomming_random_value]. But there is still an Else object with [brown]...

                i know, those libraries are there for a reason.. sometimes you just can't avoid them.
                and sometimes there's no point in reinventing the wheel..

                it's not like i never use externals or libraries, vanilla just makes everything that little more portable or shareable.

                  Remork
                  I understand, and I'm agree.
                  As a beginner, it's not easy to make a straight and definitive choose between the difficult way of deep learning that keep simple tools adequate and easily shareable and the way, as a musician, that let you enough time to experiment with your tool.

                  By the way, i'm working (losting time) on an abstraction [Pot-Init](pot-initialisation mode) that allows to adapt the real voltage range of each potentiometer to the 0-1 range of pure data, and store it (where i'm quite stuck), with Pepper in the rack, not connected to the IDE.
                  Perhaps it's unuseful... (I'm I reinventing the wheel ? 🙂)

                      as far as reinventing the wheel goes:
                      https://patchstorage.com/vanillabrown/
                      here's what i hope is a working version of a vanilla brownian generator.

                      it's very much based on the ELSE version.
                      tested them side by side and found no difference whatsoever. YMMV.

                      i'll try to use it in your patch soon, but i'd have to do some revisions for pepper v1 before i can truly test it.

                        do you mean a function where it reads the 'real' values, adjusts them and saves them - without connecting to a computer?
                        while such a mapping is certainly necessary, i'm not sure if the values drift over time.. so i would think that once you have the values for all 8 pots in your Pepper, you can use these for every patch afterwards?

                            Yes, I have thought of the possible variation of voltages in time. [Pot-Init] need to be incorporate in the [ReadAnalog] as an abstraction. You could use the Pot-Initialisation mode only one time and keep use these values for the rest of your life or use the Pot-Initialisation mode every time you power the Pepper.
                            It works on my computer, but I need to find a solution only with Pepper to store the values to be readable after reboot. On computer, it's easy with the [savestate] object, by saving the parent patch.

                            Basic operating manual: power on the PEPPER with button 1 engaged, release it after you see the first blink of led bargraph, then fully turn each pot from a side to the other and let them here, in their max or min positions, press button 2 to quit pot-initialisation mode.

                                i'm sure it must be possible to save and recall a text file somewhere on Bela.

                                    by the way, the [else/rescale] object actually allows for inputs greater than its designated values - which actually happens in [else/brown], where you sometimes will get values over 1 after adding the step to [fold]’s output.

                                    my patch does this as well since it didn’t seem to matter, but it could easily be remedied with a [clip] object.

                                    Good idea. Oups, now I need to learn another language.

                                        FatJak not my idea 🙂 it's been done before..

                                        all the way at the bottom is a vanilla patch where settings of parameters are stored in a .txt file.
                                        i found the [text] object a bit weird to wrap my head around, but it's actually quite easy..
                                        best start by taking a closer look at its help file.

                                        you [define] a text in RAM, write to it w/[text set], ideally a single line of text per parameter.
                                        you can recall each line individually w/[text get], and you can store the full list to a .txt file on disk for later use.

                                        the actual text can just be lists of numbers for your calculations etc.

                                          Remork is there any reason why [savestate] wouldn't work on Bela?

                                          I hope that [savestate] object will work but I don't know how to save the parent patch ([ReadAnalog]) via Pepper.

                                              Not that I know of. Does it work?

                                                  FatJak because of the ctrl+s command from the keyboard missing, you mean?

                                                  i think you can just send [savestate] a list of the data you want to save.

                                                  do you know of the incoming adc~values drifting over time, or with different power supplies etc?
                                                  aka: is there truly a need for such a function?
                                                  i mean, i check and calibrate my pepper patches in the IDE, pulling adc~ values up to "true" 0 - 1 ranges. and then i consider them done and never think about them again. hasn't hurt so far, in practice, but it's an interesting question nonetheless?

                                                        The [savestate] works on my computer because I can do a ctrl+s with the keyboard but not when the Pepper is alone on the rack.
