[Csnd] Chn vs Zak

Subject[Csnd] Chn vs Zak
I've been using chn to create both k-rate and a-rate busses within my orchestra. I only started to use chn because I seem to remember reading that Zak is no longer being maintained.

Guess my question is if anyone has done any performance tests using these two sets of opcodes? It's one faster than the other? More stable?


Thanks,

Mike

The zak opcodes are part of the native Csound opcodes, so they are still being maintained afaik. As for which is faster, I'm not sure. I have used zak in the past, but that was before the channel system was added. Now I prefer to use that because I find the syntax more user friendly.
