My last update to 8.6 seems to have written over my externals folder meaning I’ve lost a few very important externals. The mptcfs_sa~ from MsPinky is now missing and judging by the lack of communication from them, it seems they are no longer in operation and I don’t have a back up anywhere. Is there a way to recover historical externals, are they living somewhere out of site on my computer that I’m missing

Did you manage to recover the MsPinky externals?

I want to find the externals/patches for MsPinky but really struggling. Like you say Ms Pinky appear to be no longer operating but I'm hoping to find a bunch of people out there who still want to use timecode vinyl with Live. Are there any other alternatives using Serato/Traktor vinyl with Live??  I don't have  Ms Pinky vinyl and the only copy i could find is going for a $99.99 on Discogs!

I didn’t unfortunately, I tried some recovery software but to no avail. I am hoping someone may see this and be willing to share the external. It’s a real shame, I can’t access my old repository on their site either. 

Argh! What a shame! Have you found a workaround solution? 

Despite very limited code experience I'm embarking on creating my own Max patch to implement into Live that is based on an old bit of code - vb.vinylcontrol~.mxo but currently only works on the intel mac architecture.

I was exploring FluidCorpus stuff and there are some really useful tools in there. I didn’t really use MsPinky system for timestamps or precise location, all I really need is direction (can get it from phase) and pitch. There are also some other tools out there, I’ll pass them on when close to my computer again but maybe we could work on something together

Thanks Eoin that's great thank you and happy to collab! Where are you based? I'm based at Goldsmiths Uni, London. 

I don't know much about FluidCorpus but understand it's purpose is for machine learning/listening and signal decomposition. I would be interested to see it work in practice and how you use it.
