Welcome to the plugdata wiki!

plugdata is a plugin wrapper for Miller Puckette's Pure Data (Pd), featuring a new GUI made with JUCE. Headed by Timothy Schoen, this project is still a work in progress, and may still have some bugs. By default, plugdata ships with the cyclone and ELSE collections of externals and abstractions, and pd-lua is included as a scripting extension for programming your own Pd objects in Lua. The aim is to provide a more comfortable patching experience which integrates well with a large selection of DAW (digital audio workstation) programs. A stand-alone executable version of plugdata is also included, which can be used as a replacement for the Pd program.

Please check the sidebar for installation and basic usage information. More information about the current state of the software can be found in the main repository. You might also want to check out the develop branch for the latest development sources.

Ardour and REAPER users: If you have trouble editing patches in the plugin window, please check the plugdata in the DAW wiki page for tips and tricks.
