Hi All!

I now got PureData running nicely on my fuel, but unfortunate I do not have a soundcard.

But my Pc running Linux, also that one with PureData, there I got a nice E-mu 1820 soundcard.


My question is if it is possible to trick Pd that I have a soundcard and send it over Ethernet to my Pc and use my soundcard there?

The network interface objects that I found within Pd can only send controldata no sound

Best would have been a object in Pd that can sen sound, but I have not seen that.

Any ideas?

All the best!

The Fuel has an EMU-based audio driver <with IRIX 6.5.25 or higher>. AFAIK it's only been tried with some of the Creative Audigy boards, but if you've got an adventurous streak you could always test the E-mu 1820 in the Fuel.

If you'd like an inexpensive audio board for the Fuel, the Fuel (IP35) Hardware Aggregator lists a few members have reported as compatible. There's several pages of Soundblaster Audigy boards on eBay for less than a decent six-pack.

Yes, to get a Soundblaster Audigy board, would give me sound but that is not the main problem.

If I did that I would need to physicaly connect that one to my E-mu 1820 and occupy inputs on that one that I need to plug in my synthesizers on. Further it would be a a D to A and a A to D conversion extra.

So it would be excellent to just stream the audio directly over ethernet into PureData.

At: I found some interesting objects that could solve the issue, but I never managed to compile them.
