hey all, after years of trying to get ppooll to work on windows with no luck, it was great to have it work on my iMac

I have ppooll running on Mojave 10.14.6, max 8.1.3, but I’m not sure which version of ppooll is happening. Any one know how to check that?

edit: so after messing around a bit, some acts seemed to not be working, so I updated to the newest version of ppooll and max and everything seems to be working now, gotta say though, the routing is not the most intuitive, but I’m getting there

I got this message when installing after doing a plugin scan.

An apparent security function in recent OS that flags downloads from the internet automatically.

Try scanning for Plugins and see if you get the pop up. After I clicked OK, it seems to work fine. Although I haven’t gone too deep into actually using it.

You are killing it with these posts! I remember messing around in lloopp a couple years back and loving it. Got distracted with mods and hacks in hardware and no input mixer stuff for a bit but now looking to get back. Many thanks!

Got lloopp running on OSX 10.3 now. Runs a bit better than on OS9. Which means it crashes, but at least it doesn’t freeze the entire laptop. I would like the get a version of ppooll that features the spectral objects. It did in Max 6.

Had this same problem with Max 8.1.2 on Windows 10 and I think I’ve managed to solve this by downloading the external separately from https://web.archive.org/web/20190913190815/http://ppooll.klingt.org/index.php/max_externals (had to use wayback machine, the page is empty since the last update apparently) and replacing the previous one - ll_number.mxe64 - on Max 8\Packages\ppooll\externals\filip. Hope it helps.

made myself a lines account just to thank you. you’re a legend!

YES! thank you! this fixed it!

sorry for the delay, got sick the past month but saw it through! I can confirm Max 8 and the ppooll host successfully running now that I moved it to Packages! excited to start playing around with it more, so far gg.rainer is just as fun as I expected. want to dive more into delayloops as that one is proving a bit tricky.

Using ppooll quiet a lot! Especially the beast feedback act and the kk.rainer.
Here a example where I used beast for a project I do with Maotik.

anyone using ppooll ver 8.2 and know how to route audio in from an audio interface? the tutorials i’ve been watching have used an act called INa, which i am not seeing in 8.2. there’s an INmulti but doesn’t seem to have the same function.

try using buffub - you can pass audio through without needing to record.

If I install the Max Runtime 6 will Ppooll work on my older MacBook Pro?

perfect, that worked

Hi all,

I’m new to ppooll and I’ve wanted to get into it mainly for its granular capabilities. Upon messing with gg.rainer, I can’t seem to select any file to play. The are where you usually select a file is greyed out, I’ve attatched photos of how it looks. I’m on the newest version of both max and ppooll on a Macbook pro with Big Sur 11.1. I’ve seen other threads with similar issues with the two plugins that were solved with the 8.2 update… unfortunatley the one I’m using. I could be a total idiot… let me know. Thanks in advance.

its definitely confusing. use the buffer_host act to load samples that will show up in that window of gg.rainer. click on the bottom left of buffer_host > samplebuffers to create an empty buffer and use the buffub act to record live audio into gg.rainer

Hi All (this is my first post searching for help on PPOOLL). I’m so excited about getting into PPOOLL, and i’m super grateful for the availability of it . I’ve used Max a bit, but i’m still just getting my head around it really.
Anyway, i’m not getting acts to work in PPOOLL at all. For example, if i set up an instance of Hardplay or gg.rainer it sends out to ho_st fine. However, if i try to route it to freeverb (for example) and route freeverb to ho_st I get nothing. Also, I don’t seem to have MixL and MixR available - not sure whats going on? (screenshot attached)
Really, really appreciate anyone’s help on this - please :slight_smile:

hi!
i’m not an expert, but know some basics :slight_smile:
in your example in hardplay you have to choose input of freeverb, at screenshot there’s ‘-no-’ input.

Thanks so much for taking the time! I really appreciate that, and seems so simple now.

Hey, thanks so much for the reply - really appreciate it

Hey all,

Im pretty new to PPOOLL and was just wondering about how to get munger/kk.Rainer going. For munger, when I route an audio signal from hard play/gg.Rainer, the in_mix slider shows that it’s receiving a signal but nothing comes out of it at all… ive tried messing with the parameters and can’t get a sound out of munger (yes the on button was on​:kissing_smiling_eyes:). I would love if anyone could provide some guidance to a dumb newbie! KK.Rainer I’m totally confused with too, read the info sheet a bunch of times but I just can’t seem to get it :pensive: huge thx to the Good Samaritan who can help
Thanks
