Library for working with PureData on the Bela Platform, enabling bidirectional communication between the same Pd patch running on Bela and a local machine. Half-live coding?

• bela.comms: send and receive data to and from Bela
• bela.send: send data to Bela
• bela.receive: receive data from Bela
• bela.name: name an item of data to be sent to Bela
• bela.scope: easy access to the Bela oscilloscope

• sliders (video). Send and receive data to and from Bela, with the same patch running on Bela and local machine.

• Download or clone this repository
• Create a Bela Pure Data project called pd-externals, see this Wiki section for reference
• Copy the externals in ./bela.pd/pd-externals to pd-externals to Bela, either by drag and drop via the IDE, or via the command-line:

scp /path/to/bela.pd/pd-externals/* root@bela.local:/root/Bela/projects/pd-externals

• Add /path/to/bela.pd/pd-externals to Pure Data's search path on your local machine

• Add the ./bela.pd/render.cpp to your Pure Data projects
• Run your project's _main.pd patch on Bela and your local machine at the same time
• See the example in ./bela.pd/examples/sliders for more

• Make comms work with non-static IP
• Saving and managing state and parameters
• A data logger on Bela
• Integration with other libraries like ml.lib
• Add more examples
• Rebuild comms using send and receive? Or, have comms sit in the background and a bela.s and bela.r per item of data.
• Add CV-MIDI converters?
• bela.scope~ compatibility with expander capelets
