So we just did our live show last night with csound5, and all was fine. 
Yay! We did have to make mulitple versions of the score with various 
starting points in case of problems because of the lack of advance 
statement, but that was a fairly trivial task.

One thought, perhaps this is already in the works. It would be really 
cool for live use if one could start csound, and start/stop/move the 
score independently. Perhaps this could be an api function, or is it 
already? For example, it takes a while ( say 5 or 6 seconds ) for csound 
to finish loading up our tables/score etc. Would be nice if we could do 
that, then hit play at the right time and have music instantly on the 
beat. I am, of course, just pie in the sky dreaming here, so my 
apologies if I'm asking for very difficult features.

Anyway, thanks everyone for all the work that's gone into csound5. Folks 
at the show were very impressed with the sound, and all we did was run 
straight from the machine into one eq unit and the main mixer. And we 
appear to making a lot of folks curious about the feasability of running 
an AMD/linux/csound instead of Mac/MAX-MSP. You can buy some really nice 
  nearfields with the price difference ... ; )

that's great to hear. I confess I don't have any experience with live
performance with csound. All my stuff is regular "tape music". could you
provide a little more detail or perhaps even an example?

Cheers,

Pedro Kroger
