To keep you all informed, csound6.00 rc3 is now available at

https://sourceforge.net/projects/csound/files/csound6/csound6.0rc3/

with prebuilt OSX, iOS and Android (so far); I will try to add at
least a Debian/Ubuntu system.

The changes since rc2 are mainly bug fixes, but the treatment of
arrays is improved and recoding some parts has removed potential
thread problems that have been there for a couple of years.  Also
the implementation of string variables has been rewritten.  All being
well we are only a few weeks away from a full release.

More details can be found in the "What_is_New.txt" file.

It is my opinion that this version is at least as robust as 5.19 and
can be used in general, but some caution is prudent.  It also seems
faster in many cases but...  We would like as many people to try the
system so we can confirm my optimism is correct.

Some additional notes:

- The Android release for rc3 is not yet uploaded.  It should
hopefully get sorted out soon, but there is some changes to the build
and release system we're working out that should lead to a better
build system altogether.

- The iOS RC3 release has not been updated yet for ARC.  As soon as
some time frees up, this will be done.

- I will be updating the Homebrew recipe to use the RC3 zip shortly.
Users using Homebrew should be able to do an update later today.

- It would be a huge contribution to Csound 6 to get user testing from
everyone for both "Do these older projects still render correctly with
CS6?" as well as "I have an issue with new feature X".

- If you install and test Csound6 and find a problem, you can always
just reinstall csound5 and get back to work pretty quickly, so I
believe it is reasonably safe to test now.

I'd like to second John's opinion that the system seems to be usable
now for general purpose (I've switched to it for general usage here).

I try to import csnd6 in a python program, but I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/richard/Desktop/ESMS/M4All.py", line 9, in 
    import csnd6
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/csnd6.py", line 26, in 
    _csnd6 = swig_import_helper()
  File "/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/csnd6.py", line 22, in
swig_import_helper
    _mod = imp.load_module('_csnd6', fp, pathname, description)

not loaded: libcsnd.6.0.dylib
  Referenced from: /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/_csnd6.so
  Reason: image not found

The _csnd6.so file seems to be present in this location...

Hi Richard,

Thanks for reporting this.  It looks like the file is missing from the
installer.  I will look into that shortly, and will email here when I
have it sorted out and a new installer is uploaded to Sourceforge.

Thanks!
steven

Many thanks to the developers for creating what promises to a ground-breaking version of Csound.

I just installed 6.00 rc3 and quickly attempted to use it via CsoundQT. It appears that CsoundQT is running my previously installed version of Csound. I can find no way to point CsoundQT to Csound6. 

Is it too soon to expect that kind of integration? Or have I missed something?

best,
Lou Cohen

yes, CsoundQT  still uses Csound 5. If you run on terminal, you will get Csound 6.
