Preparing a Patch for Organelle
To start working with Pure Data patches, there are two approaches you can take.
•
Find generic Pure Data patches online and edit them for use on Organelle.
This
approach has a gentler learning curve, allowing you to see working patches in action
before attempting to create your own from scratch. As such, newcomers to Pure Data
and those who are on the fence about programming should begin here.
•
Create patches of your own.
Not for the faint of heart, this approach is more suitable
for those who have some familiarity Pure Data (or a similar dataflow/patching
programming language) already. But if you get inspiration from staring at a blank
canvas and reading a lot of documentation, you can try this way too.
Regardless of which method you pick, you can always switch to the other one at any time.
And the following section will serve you equally well, whether you are aiming to tweak or
rolling your own. Shall we?
