Hi Guys & Gals,
I got me a Lots of Pots, soldered the Pins and Pots, strapped some other Buttons and Encoder and a Friend set me an Environment, i could work with.
He used Arch Linux, installed a GUI, phyton2 and PureData with all the stuff you need to work with (including ALSA and Jack).
Then he wrote down the Pyhton code and showed me how it works. Fine.
But thats all i know 'bout that stuff
could someone tell me how i could "tunnel" the Parameters of that codesample to PureData, so i could use them as classic midi-data?
i don't even know if this Forum is the right place, but i thought that it should be a good start
yours
Roy

Re: Use LoP-Parameters with PureData
Has anyone been able to get LoP working with Raspberry Pi 3 with Raspbian 9 (Stretch)? When I run the test script I don't get any errors but 0's for all the 8 potentiometer readings. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks.
thanks.
Re: Use LoP-Parameters with PureData
I was able to get the code working on more modern hardware with a bit of massaging also be sure to actually solder the pots in.
Code: Select all
import time
import spidev
spi_ch = 0
# Enable SPI
spi = spidev.SpiDev(0, spi_ch)
spi.max_speed_hz = 1200000
def read_adc(channel, vref = 3.3):
if channel > 7 or channel < 0:
return -1
# spi.xfer2 sends three bytes and returns three bytes:
# byte 1: the start bit (always 0x01)
# byte 2: configure bits, see MCP3008 datasheet table 5-2
# byte 3: don't care
r = spi.xfer2([1, 8 + channel << 4, 0])
# Three bytes are returned; the data (0-1023) is in the
# lower 3 bits of byte 2, and byte 3 (datasheet figure 6-1)
v = ((r[1] & 3) << 8) + r[2]
return v;
while True:
for i in range(8):
value = read_adc(i)
print "%4d" % value,
time.sleep(0.2)
print;

Jeff Avery,
Thank you for your code snippet. I'm glad you got it working.
