EAT Home

Welcome to ElectroAcoustic Tools (EAT)!

EAT is a new set of abstractions for composition and diffusion that are currently under development in Pure Data Extended. EAT is accessible for preliminary educative use, but it also embraces the advanced functionality that Pd can provide for digital signal processing effects and spatialisation.

EAT has a modular architecture with instance specific MIDI and parameter preset functionality to drive open ended applications. EAT may be differentiated from pre-existing abstraction packages by its accessibility, dynamic patching, and flexible multi-point panning behaviours.

EAT (beta) currently supports Pd-extended 0.42.5 on OS X, Windows, and Linux, available from puredata.info.

Testing has predominantly been under OS X 10.6, with some under Ubuntu 10, but feedback on all platforms is widely encouraged.

Get the latest EAT version for your platform on the Downloads page.
