Products/BlueSense and Pure Data

From BlueMelon


"PD (aka Pure Data) is a real-time graphical programming environment for audio, video, and graphical processing. It is the third major branch of the family of patcher programming languages known as Max (Max/FTS, ISPW Max, Max/MSP, jMax, etc.)" (Cited from the http://puredata.info community site)

Pure Data is ideal when you want to know more about graphical programming as it is an open source package. BlueSense is supported in Pure Data under linux, windows and Mac OSX. All examples patches shown here can be obtained here: BlueSense downloads. For frequently asked questions see the Bluesense FAQ. If you have an interesting idea, but are unsure if its possible with our system we will gladly help you. Please contact us.
