This introduction to Pd is in the form of a series of Pd patches.

  • Save the lecture (a series of Pd patches archived here: pd_lecture.tar.gz) in your personal directory (in our examples the '~/clarence' directory): OS X might automatically save it to your Desktop. So, you may have to move it first to '~/clarence'
    • Extract files like this:
             ~> mv ~/Desktop/pd_lecture.tar.gz ~/clarence
             ~> cd ~/clarence
    ~/clarence> tar xzf pd_lecture.tar.gz
  • Start Pd by clicking on the Pd icon on the Dock.
  • Read and try the patches.
  • Look through the Pd Examples from the 'Help' Menu.
