Subject[Csnd] Csound6 and Csound7 parallel use?
Hello Everybody!

I want to use Cabbage3 for a new project, but i'm still depending on Csound6 for my other daily work, because i wrote some plugins, that does not compile for Csound7 yet.

So is there a way to run Csound6 and 7 on the same machine and use Cabbage3 only with Csound7?

Can someone guide me into the right direction?

greetings,
philipp

On the Mac, the latest develop build can be installed alongside Csound 6.18.

You can get it in the actions page of the csound repo. Look for the latest
csound_builds for the develop branch and at the bottom of that page
you have the artefacts, e.g. the current latest build is

https://github.com/csound/csound/actions/runs/16226533040

You will need to be logged into github to see these.

Install goes into /Applications. There is a csound cli frontend with it.
You will need to ask Rory if his Cabbage 3 builds are compatible
with the latest develop.

Yes, it's quite straightforward to work with both versions of Cabbage and Csound side by side on a Mac. Windows is a different story entirely. But there are tricks that can be used.
