[Csnd] fluidsynth feature request

Hi developers, Any chance that future Csound versions could have the fluidsynth opcodes having access to tuning tables? Another question--I'm using the old csound fluidsynth opcodes (e.g. sfplay) for microtonality (their flexibility with pitch which is entirely absent in the newer fluidsynth opcodes). Is their deprecation more an issue that the old ones aren't actively developed anymore....or are the old ones buggy in some way? I hope there are no plans to remove them, unless some flexibility with pitch is introduced into the newer fluidsynth opcodes in their stead....like having an extra 'xfreq' or 'xkeynum' optional parameters stuck onto the end.... Best, AKJ Aaron Krister Johnson http://www.akjmusic.com http://www.untwelve.org |

sfplay does not use fluidsynth. It uses its own soundfont implementation. I was not aware these were deprecated. I don't think they need to be; a number of fixes made them more useful and less likely to break. Victor On 23 Mar 2010, at 16:45, Aaron Krister Johnson wrote: Hi developers, |

Hi, They're not deprecated, I just added a note that the newer fluid opcodes are recommended, since they are more stable or at least better maintained (if I remember correctly, there was some issue with imcompatiblity with the doubles version). I think this coversation came up before, and it is more a problem of the fluid engine. Is that right? Cheers, Andrés On Tue, Mar 23, 2010 at 4:45 PM, Aaron Krister Johnson |

It's not a question of deprecation. The old ones just use soundfonts for raw synthesis and the new ones use them as they are designed to be used, as 'samplers'. Both uses are valid. MKG from cell phone On Mar 23, 2010 12:55 PM, "Victor Lazzarini" <Victor.Lazzarini@nuim.ie> wrote: |
