PURE DATA
##################
On activating the Pure Data module through patchbox utility, it will ask which patch it should autolaunch, it looks for patches in /usr/local/puredata-patches. In partiuclar it looks for blokas.yml metadata files, or just for plain main.pd file. For example, your patch entry point could be located here: /usr/local/puredata-patches/mypatch/main.pd

##########FAQ
IF YOU GET ERROR MESSAGES BY INSTALLING EXTERNAL STUFF WITH APT GET
http://www.solvium.de/blog/2013/raspberrypi-apt-get-error-dpkg-unrecoverable-fatal-error-aborting-files-list-file-for-package-dmsetup-is-missing-final-newline/
dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
files list file for package 'gpgconf' is missing final newline
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
So, in my case, I did a
sudo nano /var/lib/dpkg/info/dmsetup.list
(replace ‚dmsetup‘ with the package name in your error message, if different). It contained a bunch of crazy characters, so I just removed them all.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/dmsetup
dpkg --configure -a

THAT WAS MY FIRST TRY -> WITHOUT PD.

PISOUND revisited... 20220607
While trying to configure the Pisound for streaming, we made the following (incomplete) notes.
We like the quality of the soundcard, and the fact that patchbox is an optimized os for sound applications.
One thing to remember, the Pisound has no phantom for microphones!
0. Documentation Pisound:

Default:
User name patch
Password blokaslabs
WiFi SSID Patchbox
WiFi password blokaslabs
We installed it with balenaEtcher (https://www.balena.io/etcher/, super easy) under OSX on a 32Gb sdcard
Additional terminal commands:
diskutil list (volume disk#)
cd /Volumes/boot (then ls, to see if you are at the right spot)
touch /Volumes/boot/ssh (creates an empty ssh file)
A. Patchbox OS configs
pisound-config
pisound wizard
Interesting: other soundcards can be configured in boot/config.txt
It is advisable to read the Button configuration first:
https://blokas.io/pisound/docs/the-button/
click 3x to toggle wifi hotspot
hold 5-7s = shutdown
At first the Soundpi would not connect to the WIFI first, maybe that is due to the bullseye upgrade?
Solution:
sudo raspi-config
System Options -> S5 Boot/Auto Login -> select "B3 Desktop GUI - requiring user to login"
(let's try the automatic login later again)
We tried installing icecast2 and darkice like explained in:
https://blokas.io/pisound/docs/example-projects/
sudo apt-get install icecast2 darkice
But that did not quite work out, so the idea was to use the installed Vanilla PureData, and use the pdogg externals. At first PD did not recognize any installed or downloaded externals, but that was because of path error, they were automatically installed on:
We put them in: /usr/lib/pd/extra
You can download the externals by terminal sudo apt install pd-pdogg
(or replace the pdogg with other lib names)
Don't forget to set in PureData, in preferences both the paths and names of the libraries
For starting up you can also edit the settings in the (hidden) settings file with
cd
sudo nano .pdsettings
And now happily streaming to locusonus and multiplace servers...
2. the more professional notes by Marco Kuhn helped out with the following:
