Dear all,
I can't figure out how to load all sample (.wav) files of a given directory
(filenames not given) into f-tables. Perhaps someone can help me?
Best regards,
Søren

You can't do this natively. I wrote an opcode to do this a while back.
What platform are you on?

I think there are methods for doing this in Cabbage, filling a menu
with the names as you go.

Otherwise, you could use Python to get the file list, and then send
instr events from Python to Csound, where you have an instrument that
loads a named file.
You could run Python as the main application, loading Csound via csnd6,
or you can run Csound as the main app and access Python via the py opcodes.
In the latter case, use csInstance = csnd6.csoundGetInstance(_CSOUND_)
to get a pointer to the current running instance of Csound in Python.
(I know this was a very terse explanation, please do not hesitate to
ask more if you want to go this route)

If your needs is only to load all files in a dir, perhaps the Cabbage
route is the easiest and best.

As a separate note, as we move forward, we should probably start
looking to implement functions in Csound that do what we would
normally expect out of any scripting language.  I think once the
parser changes are done, adding a new File type should be possible,
such that we could have:

f:File = open("some/dir")
if (isDirectory(f) && exists(f)) then
  files:File[] = list_files(f)
  for_each (temp:File in files) do
    print file_name(temp)
  end
end

Thank you all for the answers! It would be great if it was possible to do
this natively, but I guess I will look into the API then - when I have
studied it more closely I will probably have some questions for you Oevind:)
BTW I'm using Windows - I don't suppose what Rory wrote could work easily
here?

I haven't tested it on windows, but I've attached the source to this
mail if you want to have a go at building it yourself. Otherwise I can
run off a version when I next boot into Windows.

Thank you Rory, I will see if I can get that to work.

Here you go. Just dump the linked dll into your plugin directory. I've
also attached a sample .csd file. Let me know how it goes. I've not
quite had a chance to test it properly.

Works perfectly! Thank you very much for the help.

Have you tried loading dynamically during a performance and if so are
you getting any drop-outs or clicks? If not I will submit it for
inclusion in the next release.

Actually I am just starting out with Csound so this is not an expert
evaluation - I did hear some clicks at the end of the files but that seemed
to because I was using stereo samples with a mono loscil3 - with the stereo
version the sound is fine. Also I was not able to use the k-version, but had
to use the i-version instead - maybe I just haven't fully understood some
Csound concepts.. I will let you know if I experience any other problems.

Thanks, the clicks at the end must be caused by something. If clicks
were going to happen it would be at the start.

I used to rename all my files as numbers, then use sprinfk to generate
the file names on startup, and then load the files using gen1. Pita.
And hand coding the names of samples into a .csd file is also a pita,
especially when you just want to try out a bunch of samples from a
library or something.

hi sören -

if you are using csoundqt-py, have a look at Scripts > Editor > 
strset_list.py. this converts all files in a directory to a strset-list. 
could be easily adapted for f-tables (maybe i have it already -- if it 
is useful for you i can look for it).

best -
