How can I use a sample as a variable? Which type of variable should I use to
do that? For example I want to do this:

instr 1
	
	ifilcod	=	"pista.wav"
	
	a1,a2 diskin ifilcod, p4

	outs a1, a2

endin

but we have the following error message:

Macro definition for omacro:MacCsound
orch compiler:
31 lines read
	instr	1	
error:  input arg '"pista.wav"' of type string not allowed when expecting i,
line 12:
	ifilcod	=	"pista.wav"

1 syntax errors in orchestra.  compilation invalid
-->CsoundLib Terminated...

You mean a string? Use S-variables.
