Hi Ken, I'd recommend taking a look at MacCsound if possible. It's design could very easily handle the addition of other script widgets that could run within the host and fire note events off to Csound, and a MIDI recorder widget could be made to send/recieve/record values. I don't think such capabilities as plugins for the MacCsound host exist, but maybe Matt could be persuaded to put something like that in. =) On the other hand, have you thought about leveraging Max/PD and csound~? Max/PD have so many things already built and I'm assuming with a shell widget and large number of boxes and lines you could put together a way to call common music in PD, take the output, and then send it over to csound~, or even make a CommonMusic plugin to Max/PD that would work with csound~. I imagine the investment in time would be far less in either levaraging Max/PD or even building a widget than the time required for creating a full host and recreating a lot of funcationlity that exists in those systems. steven On 8/2/05, Ken wrote: > i was thinking along the lines of a synth type interface ala reaktor. > > common music now supports realtime sending/recieving/recording midi, so > i'd like to integrate the two, realtime algorithmic > composition/enhancement, especially when csound can multi-instance > itself. > > ken > > On Tue, 2005-08-02 at 15:33 -0400, Michael Gogins wrote: > > Could begin by defining for us what a "gui for Csound" is, since there are > > many of them already? > > > > Regards, > > Mike > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Ken" > > To: "csound-list" > > Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2005 3:26 PM > > Subject: [Cs-dev] gui > > > > > > > if someone were desiring to work on a gui for csound, say gtk+, where to > > > begin? > > > > > > ken > > > > > > > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > > > SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies > > > from IBM.
