[Csnd] csoundapi~ newbie question

| Attachments | control.pd |
So, I'm going through the examples at
http://en.flossmanuals.net/csound/ch052_csound-in-pd/. I'm pretty much
completely new to PD.
I set up the first CSD and patch. When I change the values sent to the
"control amp $1" and "control amp $2" messages, I see "channel not
found" in the PD console.
I'm sure I'm missing something very basic. I *think* I've put the
correct types of objects and hooked up outlets to inlets, but I have no
real prior experience in this environment to draw on.
The patch is attached. Thanks for any help.

I should add that csoundapi~ is loading with no apparent errors and is
compile the CSD, also without apparent errors.

Thanks, Joachim! I have a "set ..." message, but didn't realize I needed to click it to send it. That did the trick. - Dave On 7/31/2011 6:11 PM, joachim heintz wrote: > the message "channel not found" usually means that you did not register > the channels via a message box including "set |

I couldn't even get that far. I need to do a little research on this topic,
so I'm hoping someone can help.
I'm in Windows 7 here. The floss manual gives an example from MacOS, which
is not as applicable as perhaps it might be. When I search for files whose
names include "csoundapi", I find a file in the Csound distribution called
csound_tilde.c, which I'm guessing would provide an appropriate file if I
were compiling Csound myself, but I'm not. There's also a file called
csoundapi.pd.
I tried putting them both in the Pd folder anyway, but of course that didn't
work. I didn't expect it to.
As far as I can see, there's no file called "csoundapi~", with or without a
filename extension, anywhere in the 5.12 or 5.13 distribution for Windows.
Most likely I'm just making some sort of silly, unwarranted assumption --
but what would it be?
Suggestions would be very welcome.

It should be called csoundapi~.dll and it should be in csound/bin of
your program files. You need to copy it into your pd patch folder.

Hi Jim,
On Windows 7, the file is called csoundapi~.dll and it's located in the
Csound bin directory (for me, "C:\Program Files (x86)\Csound\bin"). I
copied the file to PD's "extras" directory (for me, "C:\Program Files
(x86)\pd\extra"). Once I did this, I was able to load the csoundapi~
object in PD.
However, csoundapi~.dll is not necessarily installed by default, I seem
to remember that it's one of the optional components. If this is true,
it's possible that you don;t have it one your system yet, but in that
case you could just re-run the Csound installer and select the option.
The documentation should indeed include both Windows and Linux
directions as well as OSX.

Thanks, Dave. I re-ran the installer. I don't know why I wouldn't have
installed the Pd .dll the first time, but obviously I didn't. Now at least I
can start playing around with it.
I also have a file called csoundapi.pd. Don't know where I got it, but it
will run a file called csapi_demo.csd. This file must, however, be "in the
canvas directory or should be given a full-path relative to the canvas
directory," according to the comments in the .pd file. I have, at this
moment, not the foggiest idea what "the canvas directory" is. There seems to
be no such directory in the Pd installation.
Possibly this is a quaint way of referring to "the directory where this .pd
file is located." I'll try that next.

I don't know about that file, but I believe that in the PD world a .pd
file is referred to variously as a "patch" or a "canvas", so in a more
generic sense one's canvas directory is just where your project is. So
if you need to include a file just in one project you copy it to your
project location, but if you want to be able to include it in multiple
projects, you need to put it on a directory that's on PD's search path.

no, a comment is not what i meant.
please
1) go to
http://booki.flossmanuals.net/accounts/login/?next=/csound/_edit/ and
sign in. if you don't have an account, you must register first.
2) now you are in the write section of the csound floss manual. go to
the appropriate chapter and click on the "edit" button. when you
finished your insertions, click "save". it will not be visible
immediately at the "read" page, but it will be there in the next release.
