I always struggle with this: how to initialize a variable that gets a 
value via chnget?

Say:

         ktempo init     120

         ktempo chnget "tempo"

In my experience, when there is no value coming via chnget, the value of 
ktempo is 0

I have a csd controlled by some sliders, so I have to use chnget.
The csd only starts to work when I have moved all the sliders, since init apparenly gets 'overruled' by chnget...

Richard

Can you use chnset instead of init?

Ok I see. Will try that...

I'm not suggesting you don't use chnget, but use chnset instead of init. That will set the initial value of the channel until it's overwritten by some slider movement.

Yes, that seems to work. But it's a bit clumsy. Maybe we could make a version of chnget with an extra optional parameter with the init value?

ktempo chnget "tempo", 120

I posted a UDO here recently called xchan that operates to have a
default value for channels:

https://github.com/kunstmusik/csound-live-code/blob/master/livecode.orc#L217-L248

You could search for xchan in that file to see examples of its use.

I tried it, but that opcode does not work at all for me. Even when I move all sliders, I do not get a sound...

Take a look at the chnexport opcode. I think that night have an optional default value?

ktempo chnget "tempo", 120
