Subject[Csnd] CsoundQt/Win7/Csound 6
According to the thread on the release of 6.0, CsoundQt has been updated to
work with 6.0. (The Csound 6 installer doesn't yet install CsoundQt, but
that's trivial.) So I downloaded CsoundQt 0.7.0 (no version number change)
from SourceForge and arm-wrestled with the missing libFLAC-8.dll problem.

Having solved that, I have the new CsoundQt download running -- but even
though I had earlier downloaded and installed Csound 6, CsoundQt still
launches 5.19.02. I pawed through the Configuration box, thinking there has
to be a field there (like, in the Run tab???) that will tell CsoundQt where
to look for the Csound app -- but if it's there, I'm suffering a serious
case of senile brain-blip, because I've looked three times, and I don't see
it.

Assuming that 0.7.0 has in fact been updated to run Csound 6, how would I
direct it to do so?

Also, I'm sure this is not news to anyone, but the Canonic Reference Manual
has only been partially updated. Some of the new version 6 opcodes are
documented, others are not.

Hi Jim,

CsoundQt has been updated to support Csound6 but there hasn't been a release. I'm still squashing a few final bugs before I am confident for release.

Previous CsoundQt releases have been built against Csound5, so they will always use that. Because the internal changes are incompatible, you need to link either to Csound5 or Csound6, but you can't do both.

I'm working hard towards a release, but it's not there yet. But hopefully soon you'll have a CsoundQt where you can evaluate instruments even while the Csound engine is running.

Cheers,
Andrés

If you can build CsoundQt from git, it works really nice already. To build it, you need to edit qcs.pro and in the csound6 section set your own directories where the csound6 headers etc can be found (for now).
I guess Andres would welcome more testers.

Best!

I was attempting to do this last winter with the previous version (prior to
the release of 0.7.0) but found that the process was too complex for me. I'm
not a real programmer, just a hobbyist -- and I felt that I was taking up
too much of Andres's time asking him for step-by-step help.

By now I wouldn't even remember how to get the source files. I'd love to
help out by doing a little testing on Windows 7, but compiling the code is
probably not an option for me. If anyone has a Windows compile that they
could upload to a dropbox public folder, I'd be happy to grab it and take it
out for a test drive. (You can email me the link at midiguru23 at-sign
sbcglobal dot net.)
