Hello,

I am trying to record a soundfile to disk using the soundouts opcode (on os
x) but I am unable to read the resulting soundfile. Not even after saving it
with a header in soundhack. It seems that it is not an audio file at all.
Below is a little test csd to demonstrate the problem. 

Am I maybe doing something wrong? 

Thanks in advance...

Best
Peiman

outs  asig1, asig1
soundouts asig1, asig1, "test.aiff", 4 
	endin

Hi Peiman, I've never used soundouts but I regularly write audio to disk 
using fout which has always works fine for me.

Hi Rory,

I'll use fout then :-) I've not used csound for realtime performance  
much before so I'm not really familiar with these opcodes.

Many Thanks

Hello,

I'm completely new to CSound.
I intend to dive in deep and use it as my only synthesizer. Before this
I only used hardware.

I just Installed CSound 5.08 from source on Ubuntu Linux, and have no
idea wether I did it correctly.

I used scons -h to see the default and available options and then ran
scons again with the options that were off by default but did seem
desirable to me.
scons useDouble=1 buildCsound5GUI=1 useOSC=1 buildPythonOpcodes=1
buildStkOpcodes=1 install=1 useCoreAudio=0 buildTclcsound=1
buildVirtual=1 buildInterfaces=1 buildJavaWrapper=1 buildCSEditor=1

But then when compiling scons gave a lot of compile decisions saying it
would not build amongst other things the STK and Loris opcodes.

CONFIGURATION DECISION: Using double-precision floating point for audio
samples.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building with new parser
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building static Csound library
Parsed fltk-config.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building Csound interfaces library.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not generating PDF documentation.
Checking for C library png... (cached) yes
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building image opcodes
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building Virtual Keyboard plugin.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building CoreAudio plugin.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building ALSA plugin.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building PortAudio module.
Adding Jack library for PortAudio
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building JACK plugin.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building with PortMIDI.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building OSC plugin.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building UDP plugins.
Checking for C header file fluidsynth.h... (cached) yes
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building fluid opcodes.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building vst4cs opcodes.
Checking for C header file Opcodes/Loris/src/loris.h... (cached) no
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building Loris Python extension and Csound
opcodes.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building STK opcodes.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building Python opcodes.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building FLTK GUI CSOUND5GUI frontend.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building CsoundAC extension module for
Csound with algorithmic composition.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building CsoundVST plugin and standalone.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building Tclcsound
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building Winsound
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not building OSX GUI frontend
Checking for C header file ladspa.h... (cached) yes
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Building DSSI plugin host opcodes.
CONFIGURATION DEFAULT:  Building csLadspa.
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not calling TAGS
CONFIGURATION DECISION: Not compiling zip file for release.

This gives me the feeling I'm not getting all I should.
A week ago I did a quick try of Chuck and ran into the STK instruments
there, and I kinda liked some and would like to use them in CSound as
well.
Do I need to recompile? And if so how do I get them to work?
Any advice on other opcodes / things I'd like to get working too?
Or should I just try the binary? (though I read in the manual building
from source is best for Linux)

Many thanks for any advice!

Marcel

Hi,

Welcome. Csound will work fine even with a minimal build, but you'll
have less opcodes available. If you want to build more stuff, just
adding the dev packages for each needed package and rebuilding does the
trick.

Also, don't forget to set the OPCODEDIR variable, otherwise csound will
not find your opcode libraries:

Cheers,
Andrés
