I use RNBO’s rnboscript almost every day—it’s a fantastic tool for sample-level sound synthesis and processing.

Coding with codebox and codebox~ in RNBO, however, becomes very inconvenient as the code gets longer. It would be great to have an object like [js] or [v8] that allows the use of an external editor.

The Rpi 4B I am using does not show in the target export window. I manually added the address of the pi, but it still shows it as not connected. Wireless connection is otherwise working on the pi.

Other things I've tried to troubleshoot this issue:

Verify connection: I verified everything is correct in setup from the tutorial. Username is pi, hostname is unchanged, updated through terminal. I can SSH into the pi from my laptop and send and receive files, etc. 

Updates and installing dependencies:  I suspect it might have something to do with the way the raspberry is configured. I ran into an error for "sudo apt-get install jack_transport_link rnbo-runner-panel," which gives the error: 

"E: Unable to locate package jack_transport_link

E: Unable to locate package rnbo-runner-panel"

I have used "sudo apt-get install" as well as "sudo apt update | sudo apt upgrade" and rebooted the pi. I'm at a loss. If anyone can tell me why the pi will not show up on the target window, that would be amazing. I have puzzled over this for several days.

I've been reading over RNBO and developing some intuition for how it can be used effectively for a real-time application which uses miniaudio as its audio engine (but SoLoud is another option). I'm happy to provide more context if that helps the discussion, but here are my initial questions that hopefully some folks might have some input on:

Thanks for any feedback and helping me get a broader understanding of RNBO. :D

I’m a software engineer who is new to Max and audio, but I’m looking for a way to create custom interior and exterior driving sound for a couple of EVs I have. I’ll be using raspberry pi and my custom made hardware that currently gets literally any data from the electric motor in my the car (rpms, speed, throttle, power in kw, recuperation and a dozen of other metrics). I haven’t measured data delay and latency, but I believe I can pull data pretty fast if needed.

I’ve heard that Shepard tone and granular synthesis should be used to achieve this, but after asking my friend audio engineer to make a PoC in RNBO, I wonder if instruments in RNBO can pull of sounds like in major EV producers (Hyundai, Mercedes, GM, Porsche). I love how taycan and cayenne sound when you drive these seemingly “boring” EVs, but so far we were not able to pull off a good sounding rnbo patch with recorded CAN data from real car - basic versions sounded ok but very synthetic, more complex ones with Shepard, poly, gran synth sound bad so far, very far from what I’d like to achieve. It’s worth noting that my friend has experience with max but he is new to RNBO, after our trials and errors he also wonders if it’s possible to achieve within RNBO.

Does anyone know if it’s feasible to do it or should I just give up because of some restrictions RNBO has? Maybe someone saw people or companies using RNBO for the same purpose?

Are there any prominent people in the community who can I reach out to for advice, assistance, or evaluation? I’m willing to invest resources to get it working, but it’s been hard to find knowledgeable audio engineers

I am trying to use [pak] and [list.sum] to get the midi pitch + pitch bend as a float. But if I perform any operation, like [div] on the pitchbend (to use hires and variable pb range) the [list.sum] outputs only the pitchbend information without summing with the original note value.

Now suddenly I got it to work, but not in the rnbo-subpatcher I am working on, only in this fresh snippet, So I don't know if this question makes sense, but if anyone recognizing this problem, let me know.

[edit] I noticed the console gives me "list index out of range"

ok, asking for help, on the rnbo. on cycling's webpage there is a small section about rnbo and web audio, https://cycling74.com/products/rnbo ....a very cool little interactive and something that i could use, [but, in a different context]. firstly, is there a help file with the contents of the demonstration, just so i can look into how its built, or can anyone put me in the right direction on getting a basic thing happening for web content and rnbo web audio.

at the end of the day, i would like to create a web area [box] that could trigger audio snippets by the user, but i have no idea where to start. hope someone can help or put me in the right direction.

Hey guys, can anyone let me know why this setup isn't working? I'm basically making a noise vocoder, mic input passes through reson~ then to a live meter to get their current amplitude and then a noise generator generating the same reson~ according to the amplitude of the current signal.

I'm working with my first raspberry pi RNBO patch, and after the patch is exported and the device boots, it is very slow because the machine seems to be doing a software update (apt-get is top in top). This happens every time power is cycled. I've disabled automatic updating and even the daily apt updates.

I think the rnbo software is triggering the apt-get at startup, is there anyway to disable this? I do not want to the system to update itself without my knowledge.

Hello everyone. I'm not a programmer. Just started with RNBO. I am trying to export a device I made. I could export it succesfully to an external. So the sourcecode is fine. But I'm struggling to export it to C++ to build a GUI in Juice later.
