Thanks @the_timber_owls! Glad you like it.
I want to point out that I’m not an authority when it comes to Pd - I began coding in Pd in December 2022 and I’m not much of a synthesis guy either - speaking of that - yes! 201 Pacifica! is a sample-based patch. There’s no synthesis going on. If you have any questions specific to this mode feel free to ask and I’ll try to explain as good as I can.
I have never measured it in milliseconds - so I don’t know. Latency may not be the correct term either - as mentioned above this mode is based on an Organelle patch I wrote a few months prior to this and there was an issue with pops/clicks - you can read about it here:
As mentioned this happened on the Organelle and might not affect the 201PP at all. I just took the patch as it was and modified it a bit to fit into the 201PP eco-system. If you’re a beginner don’t get sidetracked by this now.
I would also like to revise my opinion somewhat. The book is well written and helped me a lot to understand Pure Data for the Organelle, but if you are only working with the 201PP, it might be better to start with straight Pure Data tutorials, because the examples in the book are not doable with the Pocket Piano and it might get confusing.
I’d like to mention Cheeto Mosquito’s tutorials if you’re starting out - these should give you a good overview: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL12DC9A161D8DC5DC
