What is pd-moonlib
pd-moonlib is:
Moonlib includes three sub-sections: nilib, which is a kind of wrapper between Pd and Gtk, sublib, which is a collection of gui control objects, and other, which are miscellaneous objects:
- tabenv: like env~, an enveloppe follower, but computing on a table, so possibly much speeder than real-time env~’s computation
- tabsort, tabsort2: returns the indices of the sorted table, tabsort2 is bidimentionnal
- gamme: one octave of a piano keyboard used to filter/choose notes in a selected scale
- absolutepath/relativepath: to use files (sounds, texts, presets, images, programs…) nested in the patch’s directory (and in subdirs)
- sarray and slist: to creates shared dynamic arrays or lists with symbols
- sfread2~ and readsfv~: to pitch the direct-from-disk reading of sound files
- dinlet~: an inlet~ with a default value (when nothing is connected to it)
- mknob: a round knob ala iemgui vslider (with its “properties” window)
- dispatch: creates one bus name for many buttons’ buses: from the N pairs (slider1-snd/slider1-rcv) … (sliderN-snd/sliderN-rcv), creates only one pair of buses named (slider-snd/slider-rcv), in which datas are prepended by the number of the “sub-bus”
- joystik: an improvement of Joseph A. Sarlo’s joystick
- image: an improvement of Guenter Geiger’s one. Same name, but it’s compatible. Here you can share images through different objects, preload a list of images, and animate this list.
