Is the current version in csound cvs? Does the loris cvs contain the
latest version or are you refereing to 1.3? What does it use if it does
not use SDIF. All the documentation referes to SDIF. 

More information please: operating system and version, Csound version, Csound custom built or pre-built? 

I am running Gentoo GNU/Linux on amd64 in 64bit mode. I have Loris
version 1.3 installed. I compiled csound 5.01 using the loris 1.3
sources. If csound comes with loris sources then I will try to use that
instead. Does csound have a utility to create files so that lorisread
can read? Doesn't hetro create SDIF files? Can lorisread read them. Is
there another format instead of SDIF that is the standard for Loris that
ships with csound?

I will give that a try.
