Subject[Csnd] STK opcodes
This family of opcodes appears in the manual, but apparently they are not installed in my OSX installation of Csound 5.18.

I noticed in an old post that they were not included in some releases. Is there a reason for this? could they be included soon?

Hi Lou,

I don't see any particular reason why this couldn't be added.  Could
you add a bug in the bug tracker?

For the interim, I've zipped up my copy of libstk.dylib and put it up at:

http://www.kunstmusik.com/libstk.zip

It has the stk sources compiled in so shouldn't have any issues with
linking.  You can try putting it in:

/Library/Frameworks/CsoundLib64.framework/Resources/Opcodes64

and (hopefully) should just work there.

Thanks!
steven

Steven,

I will be happy to post the bug, but I've never done this for csound before (only for qtcsound.) The forums provided at http://www.csounds.com/forum/ don't seem to include a forum for bugs. Please advise.

Thanks for sending me the stk library libstk.dylib. I installed it as you directed, but apparently something more needs to be done. I used the csd example from the manual (reprinted below) and got the error shown following the csd:

Hi Lou,

There's a link to the bug tracker at the end of emails on the list; it
redirects now to:

I see that you are using the float build of csound.  I've recompiled
the STK lib and placed it at:

Could you try placing it in:

SubjectRe: [Csnd] STK opcodes
Steven,

I have now posted the bug at sourceforge. Sorry I overlooked the ever-present link!

Thanks again for the new library which I placed as you directed. Still no luck, however. After restarting qtsound, which seemed prudent, I ran the same csd as before and got the output at the bottom of this email.

There is a (smaller) family of opcodes related to the STK opcodes, which IS present in my version of Csound. These are the "wg" opcodes, apparently originating from Perry Cook, author of the STK opcodes, but reprogrammed for csound by John ffitch. Perhaps the STK opcodes are redundant if the wg opcodes are present? I lack enough expert knowledge to know; I've just started to explore these.

SubjectRe: [Csnd] STK opcodes
The STK opcodes (which I wrote) are a complete encapsulation of ALL of Perry Cook's instruments, just as he wrote them in C++, as Csound opcodes. The others you mention are ports to C of some of these by John ffitch (I think by him). I advise you to try them all and use the ones that work best for you. For myself, I use the STK opcodes and the others as well, depending on the sound I want.

The RAWWAVE_PATH is an environment variable that must point to a directory where the wavetable files used by STK reside. You need to have these files as well as the library. If you download the STK, you will find these files.

Hope this helps,
Mike

SubjectRe: [Csnd] STK opcodes
Dear Michael, 

This info is helpful for sure but I am hoping that we can make it easier for Csounders to use
this work without all the additional includes, searching, and setup.

For instance:

It would be nice if.... 
- the files were distributed with the binaries - if they are needed.

It would be nice it the libraries were compiled and distributes - as they are needed

It would be nice if CsoundQt had a line in the Environment Tab - that encouraged one to define a RAWWAVE_Path

It would be nice if all these "unique" instructions and needs could be explained in the Manual
- or better, just set up in the builds and included materials with the distributions.

Hoping that the next build/release of CsoundQt and Csound includes all this as it does with the other libraries and materials.

-dB

(If possible, it would be nice to include Jack too - since we seem to produce many "warnings" when it is not included - all my students think that it is something that they are doing wrong... and me too for that matter.

Mike,

Unfortunately, you are assuming skills that I don't possess, or at least experiences that I haven't had. I have never "downloaded" STK or any other opcode modules. The code that I used to try to invoke the STK material was kindly sent to me by Steven. I have no idea what repository in the cloud it might reside in. 

As Dr. B. intimated, I'm at the mercy of those who put together binary install packages. I will be content to wait until a binary release becomes available.

Best, and thanks for your help!

Thanks Menno,

This is good to see.  And any more info/advice/links would be helpful 
- like how to set up this "path" on a Mac.

But.... 

Why do we have to do so much extra work for these?
- especially when other libraries are installed and other samples are included?

It would be great if the path was to the included samples folder
It would be great if the dylib was built and distributed with the binaries

It would be great if they just "worked" out of the box like all the other Csound opcodes.

Especially, when Michael tells me/us that his Windows .exe requires no additional setup
and does include all the rawWaves, the path, etc.

SubjectRe: [Csnd] Re: STK opcodes
I think the issue may be that STK is its own project / library. Unlike other libraries it also needs resources beyond the headers and the linked library itself (the sound files). The library could be made a requirement for csound, except there are valid reasons to want to build and distribute csound without those opcodes.

A path will be, by convention, an environment variable which points to the location of some resource.

usually you would put something like
RAWWAVE_PATH=/foo/bar/baz # put the actual directory path holding the resources here
export RAWWAVE_PATH

in your login preferences file (.bashrc or .profile if you are using bash, which is the default shell with osX)
the syntax may vary if you are using a shell other than sh / bash

usually, whether a shell in a terminal is a login shell is a configurable option for that terminal

A path will be, by convention, an environment variable which points to the location of some resource.

usually you would put something like
RAWWAVE_PATH=/foo/bar/baz # put the actual directory path holding the resources here
export RAWWAVE_PATH

in your login preferences file (.bashrc or .profile if you are using bash, which is the default shell with osX)
the syntax may vary if you are using a shell other than sh / bash

It would be great if the path was to the included samples folder

SubjectRe: [Csnd] Re: STK opcodes
This is a difficult question. I think environment variables are intrinsically non user friendly nowadays, and most people would expect either a settings panel on a gui, or at least a config file that is specific to the app being run.

We had an issue recently at work, where we needed to set up environment variables to control certain functionalities in our development setup. Even with people who are professional programmers there was much confusion and complaint about the inconvenience of specifying things this way.

If you look into the documentation for bash, bash will load .bash_profile on login if it exists, if that does not exist it will load .profile or .login. For all shells it will load .bashrc. if I recall.

A path will be, by convention, an environment variable which points to the location of some resource.

usually you would put something like
RAWWAVE_PATH=/foo/bar/baz # put the actual directory path holding the resources here
export RAWWAVE_PATH

the syntax may vary if you are using a shell other than sh / bash

Thanks so much for your insight, clarification, and advice - and also for understanding that I am in no way complaining at all here.  I will be able to get it to work for sure, but what I am hoping
is that we get it to be supported in the CsoundQt interface, or get it to be a default setup that is
part of Csound itself.

It just doesn't seem right for all these opcodes to be there (in the manual at least) and then be 
so complex to set up - at least on some systems.

If you look into the documentation for bash, bash will load .bash_profile on login if it exists, if that does not exist it will load .profile or .login. For all shells it will load .bashrc. if I recall.

.bash_profile is only for new logins (shells that are spawned as a "login shell"). you can force this by running "exec bash -l"

usually, whether a shell in a terminal is a login shell is a configurable option for that terminal

on further reflection, csound could similarly check for the location of the raw waves at compile time, and if it finds them and the overriding option is not set at run time, insert their expected location into the environment

It just doesn't seem right for all these opcodes to be there (in the manual at least) and then be 
so complex to set up - at least on some systems.
