PS. Our zoom meeting on Tuesday 9 April will take place at 13:00 GMT (i.e. 3 p.m. Paris time). We hope to see you! Bernard ------- Dear colleagues, Recently I had a friendly contact with Luciano, a data engineer and software designer based in the Netherlands, which led to an informal exchange via Zoom. We decided to communicate every 3 weeks or so to discuss upcoming BP3 development issues. I hope some of you will be able to join us for our next Zoom conversation on Tuesday 9 April. Visual/audio communication is conducive to creative ideas! Please contact me privately (ber...@gm...) to get the link. Don't hesitate to take part in this brainstorming session, even if you're not in a position to devote time to further development… As you will notice on the to-do list: https://github.com/bolprocessor/bolprocessor/blob/graphics-for-BP3/BP3-To-Do.txt the same current tasks are pending, perhaps with the highest priority to completing the real-time MIDI interface on the console. If a developer can write a "minimal" application that sends, say, 3 time-stamped NoteOn/NoteOff messages to one MIDI device and receives any MIDI message from another device, I will adapt their code and integrate it into the BP3 console. Luciano and I also discussed real-time communication with Csound, which requires UDP: https://csound.com/docs/manual/udpserver.html We need to go beyond Csound and develop communication with other sound systems via Open Sound Control (OSC). My suggestion is the same as for real-time MIDI: write a very small application in C and allow it to capture and send messages to/from other devices. I will take care of integrating the code into BP3. Regarding the "compilation" of the PHP/Javascript interface, Czarek Tomczak told me late last year that he has resumed work on the MacOS version of PHP Desktop (https://github.com/cztomczak/phpdesktop). This is a separate issue that I can handle on my own. Don't forget that the project is also open to companies wishing to invest in the funding of short-term coding jobs with the further intention of products incorporating Bol Processor components. I hope to hear from you soon! With best regards Bernard Bel |
