earlier (see Chapter 3).
To create a new patch:
duplicate a simple patch in your
Patches
folder, rename the
new folder, and then open the contained
main.pd
patch for editing. (You could also
create your own "new patch" template for this purpose.)
Explore the factory patches.
In addition to finding ideas and platforms that you can
build upon, you will also encounter some external objects that are not part of the
Vanilla Pd distribution. To use an external in a patch of your own, copy it to your
patch's folder.
NOTE:
Externals that you encounter here are built for the Linux operating system
that the Organelle is running. If you are building patches on your own computer,
these externals will only work if you are also running Linux (these compiled
externals are platform-specific).
Do click the red "exit" button when you are done working in this graphical
operation mode.
While you could simply unplug your HDMI monitor and resume
working with the Organelle as usual, this will leave some processing resources
allocated for graphics that you are no longer using. It is better to revert the
Organelle to its normal CLI mode and keep the processor focused on audio tasks.
7. Additional Info
7.1 Burning SD Card Disk Image
In addition to storing patches, the micro SD card also stores the Organelle's operating
system.
Burning a new disk image on the micro SD card will reset your Organelle M to the factory
state. This is useful to update to the latest Organelle OS, or to fix a problem with the micro
SD card.
This will completely wipe the micro SD card clean, so make sure to backup anything on
there that you need. See Chapter 5 for information on downloading your patches and files
or moving them to a USB drive. You can also use a brand new card if you wanted to keep
your old OS available.
Follow these steps to burn a new SD card:
