Xth sense / PureData extended / Max/MSP 6
  • Hey guys, I'm doing a project for uni using the Xth sense, PD extended and Max/MSP. I'm using a laptop with OS X 10.7.5. At a first time I had a couple of problems with the Xth sense software and PD: I was following Marco guide "get started" (Unzip the file "xth-sense-lib.zip" | Move the whole folder "xth-sense-lib" into /home/username/Library/Pd/ . Unzip the "Xth-Sense_additional-libs_MacOSX.zip" | Move the folders "iemguts" e "soundhack" in /home/username/Library/Pd/ .) but I was not able to find the /home/username/Library/Pd/ folder, so I moved all the libraries files into the Xth sense lib folder. Now the Xth software seems ok. Still I have some problem with my sound card and PD but I hope to solve it out soon. Next step is to connect PD to Max/MSP 6 to create sounds.. I'm gonna update this discussion as soon as I get results/troubles

    :P

  • I forgot to say I had to move the iemguts and soundtrack folders from the Xth sense additional libs_MacOS X to the main Xth sense folder (it seems that PD extended can read just one level folder so some files were missing..)

  • have anyone already used the max external object for PD?

  • The Library folder on Lion is hidden, blame Apple! :) see this link to make it visible: http://gothick.org.uk/2011/07/19/revealing-lions-hidden-library-folder/

    it's handier to have the libraries there.

    Thanks for mentioning the parent folder issue, unfortunately Mac OS recreate a parent folder, even if there is none in the original zip file.

    As for Pd object for Max, I didn't test it, but somebody said it's not working properly in the latest max version. The max forum could be more helpful on this.

    cheers!
