Thanks to you all for making this workshop possible. For me, it was a lot of fun and I learned a lot from figuring out answers to all the questions. Also, thanks for all the nice feedback! It’s much appreciated.
As suggested today, I will send out an email next week, asking whether you want to continue to receive relevant information and also whether you’d like to be signed up to this blog to share some of your experience working with Pd.
Best,
Florian
Here are the patches that were used for demonstration during the fourth day of the workshop:
This was a great day, and I am amazed that we actually managed to go through all these objects. Looking at everybody’s screens, it was quite cool to see all the different individual approaches. Here are some impressions:

Here are the objects for the last day of our workshop. These are going to be a lot of fun, actually (not that the others weren’t, of course)!

With reference to a question Harald asked yesterday: There is a way to automatically scale value ranges without having to manually convert them. It’s not a dedicated external, but an abstraction by Hans-Christoph Steiner, one of the gurus in the Pd scene.
All it needs is the desired range of numbers as two arguments (lower and upper range limits). Manually converting might still save you some CPU cycles, though 
Also, Hans-Christoph did a lot of work on the HID-object. If you are interested in using controllers with Pd, be sure to check out his HID&mapping objects.

As we will only have the morning of day 3 for our workshop, the list of objects I would like to demonstrate is a little shorter:
We will be seeing more of STEIM’s own software in the afternoon, so head over to their website to check it out online:

Here are the patches I created during the first day of the workshop:
Integrating variables in messageboxes used for [line]-objects worked the way it should now. I exemplified all the options in the lineworks.pd patch, which you can get in the download above. Also, you will find conversion options to exponential and logarithmic scales in there. This is what it looks like:
To get everybody started from the same base, here’s the link to the most recent autobuild version of Pd:
On Windows, please stick to the official release version at puredata.info.
