Hey,

I`ve been using maccsound for a while now, and I want to start using 
Blue. But I`m having problems with both realtime and disk based 
rendering. I get the error; csound not found, even though I installed 
the 4.23f12 package.

I`m trying to running blue on a ibook, with osx 10.3.9 installed.

Is there any configuring required? (blue or the csound package?)

Any help would be apreciated.

I'm running ubuntu Hoary. Tonight I downloaded the current CVS and 
attempted to compile. On my first try, I did not have PortAudio 
installed. Csound5 compiled fine and ran fine too...but the ALSA module 
apparently doesn't support full-duplex. I am assuming that the PortAudio 
module *will* support full-duplex, so I decided to install portaudio on 
my system and try to compile again.

I followed the directions for building PortAudio from the source (i.e. 
did *not* use the Debian binaries) using the directions here:
http://lug.wsu.edu/node/285
As this went without a hitch, I assume I successfully installed 
PortAudio V18.1.

I then returned to the csound5 source directory and typed:
scons -c
and then:
scons
this time scons reported that it found portaudio.h. It also reported 
that it would build the portaudio module. However, the compile process 
is now broken. The first error is:
InOut/rtpa.c:33: error: syntax error before "PaHostApiTypeId"

Which is apparently a result of this following command:
gcc -Wall -g -gstabs -O2 -DLINUX -DPIPES -DHAVE_FCNTL_H -DHAVE_UNISTD_H 
-DHAVE_STDINT_H -DHAVE_SYS_TIME_H -DHAVE_SYS_TYPES_H -DHAVE_TERMIOS_H 
-DHAVE_DIRENT_H -fPIC -DBETA -I. -IH -I/usr/local/include/python2.3 
-I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -c -o 
InOut/rtpa.os InOut/rtpa.c

If I remove PortAudio, the compile process again works...and I have no 
PortAudio module.

The ALSA plugin should support full-duplex, but running in that mode
may limit the selection of buffer sizes.

Hi Steven,

Thanks for your reply.

I`ve located the csound file; usr/local/bin/csound.

Hi again Steven,

I changed the project settings to;  /usr/local/bin/csound -Ado 
devaudio, and tried to render realtime. The whole system crashed..... 
Tried using just /usr/local/bin/csound and the ftables came up, but 
there was no sound.

Which 4.23f12 package did you install??  The CsoundGBS package
(unfortunately) has some serious real-time audio problems - it seems to
crash a lot of people's machines (but does work on mine with limitations).

At this point, for real-time audio on OS X, your options would be to try
compiling the 4.23f13 release in the "csound" package on Sourceforge (John
ffitch's release) *, compiling Csound 5 (very complicated!), or begging
someone for a pre-compiled Csound 5 ** (this may be the best option at the
moment).

(*)  Compiling the 4.23f13 release requires a modified Makefile that I can
send to you if you need it.

(**) There is an old pre-compiled Csound 5 from June at Victor Lazzarini's
site -- I do not remember how well the RT audio worked in it:

Hi Anthony,

Thanks for helping me out.

The version I installed is;
4.23f12gbs.8 for MacOS X.

I guess the easist would be to get the 4.23f13 release then, and with 
the help of your makefile?
