terrarium-puredaisy

Template for creating a Terrarium/Daisy binary from a Pure Data patch.

Prerequisites

This template has been tested on macOS, Windows Subsystem for Linux and Ubuntu. Windows itself is not supported.

Your local machine needs:

• Python 3
• The gcc-arm-none-eabi compiler toolchain

On WSL or Ubuntu you might:

sudo apt install virtualenv python3 gcc-arm-none-eabi

On macOS you can do same if you have Homebrew installed:

brew install virtualenv python3 gcc-arm-none-eabi

Setup

Create a new GitHub repository using this one as a template.

Clone your new repository locally and do a one time bootstrap:

make bootstrap

The process may want your input to install additional Python packages.

Then test build the stand-in patch:

make

and program the daisy with patch.bin. The stand-in patch is a tremolo effect. Knob 1 controls the speed.

Making your own binary

Replace the stand-in patch patch.pd with your own Pd file. You can use your own name; edit Makefile so that TARGET is the base name of your file, without the .pd extension.

When your .pd file is ready to build a .bin, type

make

If all is successful, your .bin file will be next to your .pd file.
