Just got a daisy patch. Put it in my rack and I see 4 bars following 4knobs movements. great.
Now I want to understand how to pug it start experiment with pure data.
I see this page called " Daisy (Get Started Here)" and I get to the step 2 boot led blinking…
from there I have no idea what I need to do and all seems very confusing.
Sure thing is now the 4 bars are gone and if I turn off/on dasy I only get the reset LED fix.
Could you please link me to the steps so I go forward ? again I “just” want to upload pure data patch nothing else.
oh something else the daisy patch does not come with a micro SD ? I have some… it’s just that I hoped the unit would be ready to go with some exemples and things on an SD maybe ?
thx
Yes thanks just watched it !
Went into pure data because of your videos already and now daisy
I had the USB issue, reinstaled it and now this one
Compiling…
Error: unkown error
If your problem persists,
check the log file at “F:\PRESETS\MODULAR\EURORACK\DAISY\pd2dsyGUI\data\pd2dsy_build.txt”
to check for errors and consider posting
it to the Daisy Forum.
saying
make: *** F:\PRESETS\MODULAR\EURORACK\DAISY\BLINK: No such file or directory. Stop.
-edit-
so I randomly tried to creat that FOLDER and Flash Program again but now get:
"make: Entering directory ‘F:/PRESETS/MODULAR/EURORACK/DAISY/BLINK’
make: *** No rule to make target ‘DAISY’. Stop.
make: Leaving directory ‘F:/PRESETS/MODULAR/EURORACK/DAISY/BLINK’
"
Ok, let’s simplify the directory.
It seems like moving the pd2dsyGUI folder to Users worked for people. Give that a try and see if that issue still pops up.
Thanks,
So I moved pd2dsyGUI folder to Users.
but I get this.
Pd translation error:
path is on mount ‘C:’, start on mount ‘F:’
I tried to do the zadig again or change the pd2dsy_blink to Users but then I get
[WinError 5] Refused access: ‘C:\Users\pd2dsyGUI\pd2dsy_blink\blink\hv’
Alright, let’s take a step back.
Were you able to get the Daisy blinking using the Daisy Web Programmer?
I wanted to confirm that with you.
And I don’t think I have seen [WinError 5] before.
Could you share screenshots of how your directory looks like, what’s displayed on zadig, and also what your pd2dsyGUI looks before flashing? Thanks
Nice!! Glad to hear that you were able to flash successfully.
Yes, it’ll be a great idea to have a look at the patch_test.pd to understand how to use the Daisy Patch with Pure Data.
You can find that patch in: pd2dsyGUI → data → examples → Pd → patch_test.pd
When you flash something new, the firmware that’s already embedded is replaced. So in this case, the blink program was deleted and the patch_test program was flashed afterwards. It’s not accumulative.
Another key thing to note as you go on your pd2dsy journey is that not all objects are supported by hvcc.
Here’s a list here: Unsupported objects | hvcc
plugdata makes this easy to tell with its Compiled Mode. It lets you know if a certain object is supported or not. It’s super neat
And you can flash your patch to the Daisy directly in plugdata as well. I recommend checking it out!
Have fun and let me know if you have any questions during your journey!!
So I looked at the patch and I would expect this to happen (?);
a 440Hz tone on outs1-4
turning encorder changes pitch up / down.
knobs control levels ouf outs1-4
and trigs would send a 1/2sec AD to out 1 or 2.
but what I get is a constant pitch (not 440hz) on out 3-4
and nothing on 1-2 no matter gate1-2
encoder does not change pitch
I tried plugdata. I like the interface but the compile comes back wirh errors (?)
I select ;
Currentrly opened patch
target = patch
export type = Flash
ROM optimisation for speed
RAM optimisation for speed
And the export report says :
Download done.
File downloaded successfully
Warning: Invalid DFU suffix signature
A valid DFU suffix will be required in a future dfu-util release!!!
Error during download get_status
make: *** […/…/libdaisy/core/Makefile:330: program-dfu] Error 74
So i used pure with just [osc~ 440] to [dac~ 1 2 3 4]
patch in pure data works fin
flashing using pd2dsyGUI gives
Compiling…
Flashing Daisy…
Daisy successfully flashed!
but the module gives the same result as before.
sound goes only to 3&4 with nasty 1kish sawtooth.
So there’s no sound from output 1 & 2? And did you make sure to put patch as the target?
Ok, let’s see if the hardware itself is working.
Could you flash the example firmware on Daisy Web Programmer ? Something like the Patch VCO should work fine. Let me know if it works.
If there’s audio, then there might be something up with pd2dsyGUI with Patch.
yes
Sorry i’m a bit confused about the second part.
So I take this [osc~ 440] to [dac~ 1 2 3 4] that works fine in pure data
and use this page :Daisy Web Programmer
rather the plugdata or the pd2dsy_gui.exe
But in that interface I’m not sure opf the procedure:
1- start module with boot procedure
2- connect from the Daisy Web Prog page
3- select patch
4- choose file (that pure data small patch)
5- … program ?
if so I got:
Erasing DFU device memory
Copying data from browser to DFU device
Wrote 194 bytes
Manifesting new firmware
Done!
But then no sound from any audio output in the module.
—EDIT
wait… I just tried to use technic above but select the “VCO” in “exemple”
and it is working as expected looks like
other patch from exemples are working too. Env oscillator, Polyosc.
so don’t know why my little patch is not working so far
I’m glad to hear that the WebProgrammer examples are working! This means that your hardware itself is working as expected.
Let’s get back to pd2dsyGUI then.
I just want to double check two things with you:
Your patch looks like this, correct? Filename can be simple_oscillator.pd for example.
In your pd2dsyGUI, make sure you have Patch selected in Board and of course the correct pure data patch (in this case simple_oscillator.pd chosen in Pd File.
Hi,
yes exactly that.
1&2 no sound 3&4 sound.
I tried with pd2dsy, the online tool and plugdata
plugdata says:
Error during download get_status
make: *** […/…/libdaisy/core/Makefile:330: program-dfu] Error 74
Sorry just to recap see if I do anything wrong:
1- power on the module through the case.
2- plug daisy via USB to computer
3- press reset / boot, let go reset then let go boot.
4- open pd2dsy (or do I need to do anything else first ?
6- select the PD file(exactly the one from your picture) / Board= Patch /no Json / ROM = speed
7- press Flash program.
result message is:
“Compiling…
Flashing Daisy…
Daisy successfully flashed!”
8- plug cable from out 1 to 4 (USB still pluged in)
result:
out1&2 = >10k hiss
out3&4 = 1kish saw tooth.
Is there a procedure before that I should do… i’m lost really.
I just tried to do another patch like [osc~ 600]=[dac~]
result is exactly the same as above…
So the only thing I can load in are the exemples from the web programmer.
I don’t think it’s anything wrong with the hardware since you were able to get sounds out of it using the Web Programmer. Something funky could be happening with pd2dsy (or pd2dsy GUI).
I will bring this up to the team and look into it further. Could you tell me what OS you’re running?
I’m sorry about the not-so smooth start to your journey.
