The only documentation that currently exists is in the Csound 5 manual on csounds.com.

In csound5/examples/CsoundVST.csd is an orchestra that provides some example instruments that should work "out of the box."

I am planning a tutorial for the Csound online magazine, but I don't know when I'll do it.

Regards,
Mike

Subject: [Csnd] CSound5 VST Tutorial?

hi all, i figured my lurker status was long since expired.

Over the next month or so I'm hoping to get myself upto speed on using
CSound5 within a VST host (namely Cubase SE).  I've managed to get it
running, after installing the necessary components (python, PD) and
modifying my environment variables.

I wasn't able to find a tutorial, or even a central reference for
getting this set up, though I may have been looking in the wrong
place, so I'm kicking around the idea of creating such a document.

I'm just wondering if there are:

a) any documents that exist like this at present (with links!)
b) if anyone has any suggestions as to some example *.csd files
suitable for running under a VST host that might really showcase why
non-CSounders may want to consider installing this.

any input or "that's already been done!"'s would be appreciated.

jc
