Hi could anybody tell me if there is a way to clear anything that's been
loaded into memory during performance?

I have a pvoc instrument which allows loading/playback of different .pvx
files during performance however as i flick through the different files ,
they are simply loaded into memory with previously loaded files also
remaining. It means that very quickly all ram is used and I then need to
restart the performance. 

I want to see if it is possible to clear the memory so that I can
effectively overwrite one .pvx file in memory with another, or say clear
memory when usage approaches a particular threshold.Any ideas?

Thanks a mill
Dave

You could try using pvsdiskin, which does not use memory files (but disk ones).

Hello,

I was wondering how to get CSound's current time when performing a score. 
The reason being that I want to display a progress bar as an audio file is 
being saved.

Calling getScoreTime() seems to be getting the elapsed time since the score 
was started, not the current time position in the score. I know how long the 
score is in milliseconds, 11520 ms.

The log for the last score event displays:

AndroidCsound B 11.401 .. 11.520 T 13.824 TT 13.824 M:

getScoreTime() returns 13.823, I'd really like to get the 11.520 time, not 
the TT time. Is there any way I can do that?

Best regards,

Jacques 

Cheers Victor, i'll have a look at pvsdiskin it's seems to do most of what
i'm looking for. Out of interest is what i've described possible? Is there
any easy way to clear the memory or overwrite stuff already in there during
performance or is it is this something that could potentially create crashes
very easily and has just been avoided? or is there an opcode i've overlooked
that does exactly this? Thanks a million!

Dave

One solution is have an instrument calling 'times' and place the result in a bus channel, picking it up in your app for display.

Not sure about this. Maybe jpff would know more.
